About the role

We are seeking a technically skilled Support Engineer to serve as the critical link between our customer-facing support team and our Engineering and Product organizations. This role owns the full lifecycle of complex technical escalations; from front-end triage and backend investigation to defect documentation and custom resolution, ensuring that only thoroughly vetted, well-documented issues reach development. You will be the technical escalation for API, SmartView, and SQL-related issues, build custom SQL and API-based solutions to resolve complex customer problems, and provide hands-on technical guidance to Tier 1 specialists.


What you'll do

  • Conduct thorough backend investigations on all escalated issues before they reach Product or Development, including reproduction, root cause analysis, and workaround identification.
  • Author detailed bug tickets and track defects through resolution, maintaining clear documentation of reproduction steps, expected behavior, and workarounds.
  • Serve as the primary owner of all API, SmartView, and SQL-related support issues, diagnosing and resolving complex technical problems end-to-end.
  • Develop custom solutions using SQL and internal APIs to resolve complex, customer-facing issues that fall outside standard support workflows.
  • Provide technical guidance to Tier 1 Support Specialists, assisting with complex cases and building team knowledge.
  • Rigorously test and reproduce escalated issues to confirm defect behavior, validate fixes, and identify interim workarounds that minimize customer impact.
  • Collaborate with Engineering and Product teams by delivering well-documented, fully triaged defect reports that accelerate resolution and reduce back-and-forth.
  • Communicate with customers via phone, email, or chat regarding complex or escalated support issues.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related technical field or equivalent work experience.
  • 5+ years of experience in a technical support, support engineering, or software QA role, ideally in B2B SaaS or Fintech.
  • Strong troubleshooting and debugging skills; ability to read logs, trace errors, and isolate root causes.
  • Working knowledge of APIs, databases (SQL), and software integrations.
  • Proficiency with bug tracking and support platforms (e.g., Azure DevOps, HubSpot CRM, or similar).
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain technical issues clearly to non-technical stakeholders.
  • Ability to operate cross-functionally, building effective working relationships with Development, Product, and Customer Success teams.


Nice to Have

  • Experience in mortgage, lending, or fintech software.
  • Familiarity with cloud platforms (Azure, AWS) or SaaS infrastructure concepts.
  • Technical writing skills for producing high-quality support and developer documentation.
  • Microsoft Excel proficiency and comfort with data analysis, formulas, and logical reasoning.
  • Experience with loan origination, loan servicing, or private lending workflows.


Why Join Us?

  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage.
  • 401(k) with company funded match.
  • Mission-driven company with a 45+ year legacy and industry-leading products trusted by thousands of lenders.
  • Collaborative, supportive team known for long tenure, deep expertise, and a culture built on trust and integrity.
  • Help modernize and evolve the leading platform in private lending technology.
  • Beautiful Huntington Beach office with a tight-knit culture.
  • Competitive compensation and room for professional growth.
  • Performance-based bonuses.
  • Generous PTO. 
  • Modern workspace with on-site amenities.
