What will you be doing?

Provide 1st Line Technical Support for escalated incidents across broadband, VoIP, and network infrastructure, ensuring timely and effective resolution with minimal supervision.

Perform advanced diagnostics and fault isolation using tools such as packet capture analysis, SIP tracing, and router configuration interfaces (e.g., CLI, GUI).

Troubleshoot and resolve complex service-affecting issues including latency, jitter, call routing anomalies, and authentication failures across multi-vendor platforms.

Liaise with third-party providers (e.g., carriers, hardware vendors, hosted service platforms) to escalate and coordinate resolution of external faults.

Maintain comprehensive and structured ticket documentation, ensuring all actions, timestamps, and communications are logged in accordance with internal standards and regulatory frameworks (ISO 27001, GDPR).

Conduct validation testing post-resolution, including line tests, QoS verification, and service restoration checks to ensure no residual impact to the customer.

Proactively monitor ticket queues and system alerts, triaging based on severity, SLA targets, and customer impact to maintain operational efficiency.

Contribute to root cause analysis and problem management by identifying recurring faults and proposing long-term fixes or process improvements.

Collaborate with engineering, provisioning, and service delivery teams to ensure seamless handovers and coordinated resolution of cross-functional issues.
