📋 Description

• Act as a technical resource for escalated DFR issues across pre-flight, in-flight, and post-flight operations. • Troubleshoot complex issues involving drone and dock hardware, remote control systems, radar software, video streaming, and platform/DFR-related integrations. • Perform log-level investigation and technical analysis using observability and troubleshooting tools to build clear technical narratives of what happened and what should happen next. • Own patterned and ambiguous issues that do not yet have documented playbooks, and partner with Engineering on escalation prep and root cause validation. • Support crash post-mortems in collaboration with Safety. • Serve as a go-between for Aviation Engineering, Technical Account Managers, and customer-facing teams by translating technical findings into digestible resolution paths and status updates. • Support DFR integration issues across systems such as FlockOS, CAD, VMS, DAA, and related customer environments. • Identify recurring trends, strengthen escalation quality, and improve internal knowledge resources that help Tier 1 and Tier 2 teams resolve issues faster. • Own and maintain troubleshooting documentation and knowledge base content for the broader DFR support organization.

🎯 Requirements

• 4+ years of advanced technical support, technical operations, or systems troubleshooting experience in a complex hardware/software environment. • Strong technical troubleshooting skills, including the ability to analyze logs, interpret failures, isolate issues, and reproduce problems in live and test environments. • Experience writing clear, engineering-ready defect reports and technical summaries with actionable reproduction details. • Hands-on familiarity with hardware and software systems used in DFR environments, including drones, docks, radar, streaming/video systems, and integrated public safety workflows. • Working knowledge of public safety IT systems, networking, and infrastructure concepts, especially where integrations and uptime are critical. • Comfort operating in a high-urgency escalation environment and collaborating across Support, Technical Account Manager, Safety, Product, Engineering, and deployment teams. • Experience with SaaS platforms, APIs, and technical support tooling is strongly preferred. • FAA Part 107 certification is required, or the ability to obtain and maintain it quickly in role.
