Job Description

🎯 Core Purpose of the Role

In this role, you'll be the technical backbone of a global scanner portfolio. Tackle advanced troubleshooting across hardware, software, and networks, step in when complex issues need resolution, and play a key part in improving product performance and lifecycle costs. This is a hands-on role that blends problem-solving with big-picture impact.

🔑 Key Responsibilities

Technical Support

• Troubleshoot scanner hardware, network, and driver issues during pre-sales trials and for worldwide Level 2 service teams.
• Reproduce customer problems (sometimes with customer IT teams directly) and provide fixes.
• Escalate to dev/pro services when needed via JIRA.

Software/Driver Support

• Handle Smart Touch, Scanner Manager, Twain/ISIS drivers, etc.
• Knowledge of both Windows and Linux environments (basic Linux — driver install, scan commands).

Product & Cost Analysis

• Monitor service data (field performance, call centers, repair depots).
• Lead discussions with regional/global teams to improve reliability, reduce costs, and drive profitability.

Collaboration with Development

• Feed insights from the field into Product Requirement Documents (PRDs) for new scanners.
• Work with commercialization/development teams to anticipate issues before product launch.
• Support beta and launch phases.

Knowledge Sharing & Training

• Create internal knowledge articles (for L2/L3) and self-help content for customers.
• Develop training programs (written + video) for field engineers and service partners.

Other

• Participate in all phases of commercialization (service reviews before milestones).
• Occasional travel (1–2x per year, domestic or international).
• Establish service support requirements and coordinate between business units worldwide.

🧰 Required Qualifications & Skills

Education: Bachelor’s in IT Networking, CS, or related.

Technical:

• Strong Windows + networking (LAN/WAN, security, topology, diagnostics).

💡 What Makes This Role Unique

• It’s a hybrid of tech support, product engineering, and cost analysis — not just fixing scanners, but also feeding field learnings back into product design and financial decisions.
• You’re the bridge between customers, service teams, and development on a global scale.
• It’s not purely a desk job — you’re influencing profitability and product roadmaps while still being hands-on with troubleshooting.
