ABOUT THE ROLE
Our DefTech partner is opening a new direction and looking for a Technical Support Lead/ Remote Field Support — someone who hears chaos and transforms it into a system: technically mature, calm under pressure, and ready to become the architect of reliability where real operations depend on it.
You will be the first point of contact for manufacturers and military operators (this is
first owner of technical support, which can grow into Owner of Mission Success) who use
the software in real field conditions.
This is not a helpdesk line. It is a combination of technical troubleshooting, operational
understanding, and structured knowledge capture from the field.
Your mission: help customers successfully deploy, configure, troubleshoot, and fix issues
in the software in real conditions. Not just closing incidents quickly, but improving our
engineering feedback loops, operational reliability, and the organization’s knowledge base.
WHY THIS ROLE IS WORTH YOUR ATTENTION
You are coming in as the first Owner of Technical Support — and building it from scratch.
But this is not a ceiling.
Mission Success within our partner’s defence project is a broader function that includes
manufacturer onboarding, crew training, and collaboration with training centers. Technical
support is the first and critical block within it.
The person who now builds tech support correctly — who understands the product, knows the
customers, and can transform field knowledge into systematic processes — is the candidate
to eventually lead Mission Success entirely.
No promises. But the trajectory is real.
RESPONSIBILITIES
— Provide remote technical support to software users and manufacturers
— Troubleshoot connectivity, VPN, Wi-Fi, network, configuration, and log issues
— Help users identify: software vs configuration vs connectivity vs operational process
— Maintain support logs and classify recurring issues
— Prepare structured reports for engineers: context, steps, evidence, suspected root cause, impact
— Improve user manuals, troubleshooting playbooks, and checklists
— Build and maintain a lightweight escalation system
— Review recurring issues weekly and propose improvements
FIRST 6 MONTHS: KEY OUTCOMES
Launch support channel (Signal/WhatsApp) — foundation of field communication
Resolve critical operational issues quickly — remote diagnosis, step-by-step guidance,
reproducible reports for engineers
Build repeatable troubleshooting playbooks and improve manufacturer guides based on
real incidents
Establish engineering escalation: collect logs/context, write clean reports, validate
reproduction steps
Capture field data — manufacturer, license, version, issue type, resolution — and analyze
recurring issues weekly
MUST-HAVE
— 3+ years of experience in: technical support, UAV Engineer, Customer/Technical Support, NOC/Technical Support Engineer, NOC, system administration, networking, or UAV Engineering Lead with QA background.
— Understanding of networking fundamentals: TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, VPN, Wi-Fi, firewalls, routing
— Strong technical thinking for troubleshooting: networking, connectivity, configs, logs.
Works with incomplete information and unclear problems.
— Technical curiosity and learning speed
— Operational ownership: proactively improves processes, documentation, checklists based on real incidents
— English (intermediate + or higher, spoken and written)
NICE-TO-HAVE
— Experience with drones / UAV / military operations / field work
— Support or NOC experience (L2/L3, incident response, networking)
— System administration or networking expertise
— QA experience (structured defect documentation, incident analysis) or Tech CSM.
WHAT WE VALUE IN THIS ROLE
— Readiness for dynamics. Right now this is not comfortable support — it is building a
function under pressure of real operations.
— Operational ownership. People who don’t wait for instructions, but anticipate needs,
take initiative, and improve processes.
— Calm in uncertainty. When details are scarce, you stay calm and systematically seek solutions.
— Schedule flexibility. You understand that regular evening activity (20:00–21:00) is peak time,
and you’re ready to be there as needed.
— Mission-driven motivation. Salary and career matter, but the real drive is building something
with real impact.
— Comfort in defence-tech context. You understand the weight of reliability, OPSEC, and
responsibility to users who depend on this software.
