• You will reproduce reported issues where possible and gather the details needed for diagnosis or escalation, including screenshots, steps to reproduce, user role and environment.
• You will escalate more complex cases to L2 technical support, L3 Product or Engineering with a clear and complete handover, while tracking tickets through to closure.
• You will communicate clearly with non-technical users, keeping clients informed and managing expectations throughout the ticket lifecycle.
• You will handle client, resident and user data carefully, in line with GDPR, internal data protection policies and strict confidentiality between client environments.
• You will follow security-aware working practices and verify requester identity and authority before actioning access, provisioning or account changes.
• You will document resolutions clearly, identify knowledge base gaps and help improve FAQs, runbooks and self-service materials.
• You will flag recurring issues, bugs and product pain points to Product and Engineering.
• You will build strong working knowledge of Lumya OS and stay up to date with product releases, new features and configuration changes.
• Experience in a customer-facing support, help desk, service desk or IT support role.

We are also open to candidates with strong internship, apprenticeship, placement or early-career experience.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills in German and English.
• A calm, professional and empathetic communication style, especially when users are under operational pressure.
