More and more companies are using GitHub Enterprise, so the support team is growing. When our customers have problems, they contact us and it is our goal to help them as quickly and awesomely as possible. We're growing our team of Customer Reliability Engineers to help ensure the technical success of our largest and most complex customer deployments, comprised of on-premise installations of GitHub Enterprise Server and GitHub Enterprise Cloud.

Your main responsibilities will be to:

• Work with assigned customers via support tickets and/or real-time interaction (phone/screen sharing) to solve technical issues related to their usage of GitHub products.
• Act as a single point of contact for technical issues with ability to troubleshoot and resolve complex issues independently.
• Gather metrics around tickets, issues, training needs, and so on for your assigned accounts for quarterly business reviews.
• Collaborate with the Support and Engineering teams to resolve product issues requiring code changes.
• Lead incident response for outages affecting assigned customers, followed by delivery of postmortem reports.

Tickets are usually opened by customer system administrators, and can include investigating load or networking issues, debugging application errors, and discussing feature requests. You'll also work with our engineering team to prioritize issues and development, and our documentation team to improve customer-facing resources. You don’t need to be a Git expert, but you do need to have technical experience and a passion for helping people.
