Production Support Engineer
Be the technical bridge between Support and Engineering. Lead incident response, uncover root causes, and drive meaningful improvements across Eftsure's fraud prevention platform.
Help Build a More Secure Payments Ecosystem
At Eftsure, we're on a mission to protect businesses from fraud and payment risk. Trusted by thousands of organisations across Australia, New Zealand and beyond, our platform helps finance teams make every payment with confidence.
We're looking for a Production Support Engineer who thrives on solving complex technical problems, digging into root causes, and making systems more reliable. This isn't a traditional support role. You'll sit at the intersection of Engineering, Product and Customer Operations, using your technical expertise to investigate production issues, improve platform stability, and help prevent problems before they happen.
If you're the type of person who sees recurring incidents as engineering problems to solve, not tickets to close, we'd love to hear from you.
The Opportunity
As our Production Support Engineer, you'll be the technical bridge between Support and Software Engineering. You'll take ownership of high-severity incidents, investigate complex production issues, and work closely with engineering teams to drive permanent fixes that improve reliability across the Eftsure platform.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys combining troubleshooting, observability, debugging and stakeholder communication with a continuous improvement mindset.
What You'll Be Doing
Own Critical Incident Management
Lead and coordinate responses to high-severity (SEV1) production incidents
Act as the technical liaison between Engineering, Product and business stakeholders
Drive Root Cause Analysis (RCA) activities and ensure corrective actions are completed
Maintain clear and timely communication throughout incident lifecycles
Investigate Complex Production Issues
Analyse logs, telemetry, stack traces and application behaviour to identify root causes
Use tools such as Splunk, Grafana and SQL to diagnose issues
Differentiate between code defects, configuration problems, data issues and infrastructure-related failures
Provide advanced technical support for escalated issues beyond standard support capabilities
Improve Platform Reliability
Detect patterns and recurring issues before they become customer-impacting incidents
Monitor post-release performance and identify emerging risks early
Partner with engineering teams to drive long-term fixes and technical improvements
Reduce incident volume and improve operational resilience over time
Support Product & Engineering Delivery
Triage bugs and feature requests with a consistent, impact-driven approach
Contribute operational context to backlog refinement and planning sessions
Assist with story refinement, edge-case identification and acceptance criteria
Advocate for improvements to tooling, processes and operational practices
What Success Looks Like
In this role, you'll:
Coordinate critical incidents effectively and drive RCAs to completion
Improve platform stability through proactive investigation and technical advocacy
Identify issues before customers experience them
Reduce recurring incidents through data-driven engineering improvements
Improve support efficiency through better tooling, documentation and processes
Help create a culture of ownership, reliability and continuous improvement across the business.
What You'll Bring
3+ years' experience in Production Support, Application Support, Site Reliability, Software Engineering, or a similar role
Strong SQL skills and experience investigating complex data issues
Experience working with observability and monitoring platforms such as Splunk, Grafana or similar
Ability to read and debug application code (experience with C#, Java or similar languages is highly regarded)
Understanding of web applications, APIs and cloud-hosted SaaS environments
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and deployment processes
Experience using Jira or similar issue-tracking tools
What Sets You Apart
You approach support challenges with an engineering mindset
You're naturally curious and enjoy investigating complex technical problems
You focus on fixing root causes rather than treating symptoms
You remain calm and structured during high-pressure situations
You communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical audiences
You take ownership and follow issues through to resolution
You're proactive, collaborative and comfortable working across teams and time zones.
