Python Integration Engineer

An L2 Technical Support Engineer with Python knowledge is responsible for handling escalated, more complex technical issues that the Level 1 (L1) support team cannot resolve. Your primary goal is to perform deep-dive analysis, troubleshooting, and problem resolution to minimize customer downtime and ensure system stability.
Python is a key skill, used for scripting, automation, debugging, and data analysis in this role.Key Responsibilities

• Advanced Troubleshooting & Incident Management:
• Serve as the escalation point for complex technical issues (often involving software bugs, system integrations, backend services, and APIs) that L1 support cannot resolve.
• Diagnose, analyze, and resolve problems, often requiring in-depth log analysis, code review, and database querying.
• Own the technical resolution of incidents end-to-end, adhering strictly to established Service Level Agreements (SLAs).
• Participate in on-call rotation for critical (P1) incident support outside of regular business hours.
• Python-Specific Tasks:
• Develop and maintain Python scripts for automation of repetitive support tasks, system health checks, and data manipulation.
• Use Python for debugging and troubleshooting by analyzing application code, API responses, or data pipeline issues.
• Write ad-hoc scripts to extract, analyze, or modify data in databases for diagnostic or resolution purposes.
• Potentially apply basic-to-intermediate code fixes in Python applications in collaboration with development teams.
• Collaboration and Escalation:
• Collaborate closely with L3 Support, Software Engineers, DevOps, and Product Teams to report bugs, propose permanent fixes, and provide comprehensive investigation details.
• Escalate issues that require significant product changes or deeper engineering expertise to the L3 team, providing clear, detailed documentation of all steps taken.
• Documentation and Process Improvement:
• Conduct Root Cause Analysis (RCA) for major incidents, documenting the cause, resolution, and preventative actions.
• Create and maintain a Knowledge Base (KB), runbooks, and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for recurring issues to empower L1 and enable customer self-service.
• Proactively identify technical deficiencies in processes and systems and recommend improvements to enhance service quality.
• Customer Communication:
• Maintain professional, clear, and timely communication with customers, explaining complex technical issues and resolutions in an understandable manner.
  

Required Technical Skills

• Programming/Scripting:
• Strong proficiency in Python (for scripting, automation, debugging, and data manipulation).
• Experience with other scripting languages like Bash or Shell
• Databases:
• Proficiency in SQL for complex querying, debugging data flow issues, and data extraction.
• Application/Web Technologies:
• Understanding of API concepts (RESTful/SOAP) and experience troubleshooting them using tools like Postman or curl.
• Knowledge of application architectures (e.g., microservices, SOA) is a plus.
• Monitoring & Tools:
• Experience with support ticketing systems (e.g., JIRA, ServiceNow).
• Familiarity with log aggregation and monitoring tools (Kibana, Splunk, ELK Stack, Grafana)
