InfluxData is the creator of InfluxDB, the leading time series platform.

We empower developers and organizations, such as Cisco, IBM, Siemens, and Tesla, to build real-time applications for IoT, analytics, and cloud native services.

Our technology is purpose-built to handle the massive volumes of time-stamped data produced by sensors, applications and computer infrastructure. InfluxData is headquartered in San Francisco, with a workforce distributed throughout the U.S., Canada, and across Europe.

When something is broken, do you want to figure out why? When you figure out why, do you explain the process to your friends? Join our growing support team to level up on cutting-edge technology, Golang, SaaS operations, and to collaborate with our wide range of customers and partners.

As a Support Engineer, you'll respond to support questions from our range of customers, collaborate with the developers and product teams on characterizing, reproducing, and fixing issues, host webinars, and work with our open-source community on GitHub and elsewhere.

You will be a key part of our 24/7 support presence by partnering with our on-prem customers and SaaS users.

You'll be supporting users at Fortune 50 enterprises, fledgling startups, established startups, academic researchers, and government projects. Our customers come from many fields, including industrial automation, high frequency trading, consumer retail, online gaming, and energy management. We're looking for candidates who value continual improvement, building tools, and venturing into the unknown. The Support team is a good home for people who leave things better than they found them.

We are people who say "I'll learn" rather than "I don't know." You'll need to be open to experimenting, which means that sometimes you will fail.

(That's okay every mistake is also a lesson.) You'll need the persistence to find a solution without a flowchart laying out the entire process.

You'll need the maturity and experience to work without direct oversight much of the day and with colleagues distributed around the globe.

Being empathic, supportive, and self-aware are key to your success.
We have multiple positions open. Candidates open to APAC shift coverage between 4:00 pm and 12:00 am Pacific Time will be prioritized.

Demonstrate ownership, follow-through with customers and drive issues to resolution
Reproduce customer issues and test new product functionality
