About Avive:

Avive Solutions, Inc. () is a growth stage Automated External Defibrillator (AED) company with a connected response system that is rapidly gaining market share. We are a mission driven team that is quite literally saving lives. Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) is a leading cause of death in the United States, and we are on a mission to change that! We are a dynamic organization that builds elegant, creative solutions to solve complex problems. Ultimately, our mission is for all cardiac arrest victims to have rapid access to life-saving defibrillation.

Avive is taking a fresh approach to addressing this decades-old problem by innovating AED technology, coupled with a first-of-its-kind software platform solution to enable a quicker and more streamlined response to SCA emergencies. We believe that this unique combination of deploying advanced – yet still accessible – hardware, and software, has the potential to revolutionize out-of-hospital cardiac arrest response and massively impact SCA survival rates.

About the Role:

We are seeking a Technical Support Engineer to serve as a highly technical, customer-facing resource supporting our connected hardware and software platform. This role is responsible for diagnosing and resolving complex issues across devices, systems, and data—often in real time.

This is not a traditional support role. You will operate in a phone-first environment, working directly with customers while leveraging logs, backend data, and system insights to troubleshoot and resolve issues. You will own issues end-to-end, from initial intake through resolution or escalation, with a strong focus on root cause identification.

We are looking for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, is comfortable getting into the technical details, and can clearly communicate complex issues in a way that makes sense to the customer.

What you'll do:

Technical Troubleshooting & Resolution

  • Analyze logs, system behavior, and backend data to identify root causes
  • Troubleshoot issues in real time, often while on live customer calls
  • Own issues end-to-end, ensuring timely and accurate resolution
  • Customer-Facing Technical Support
    • Provide support across phone, email, and chat, with a strong focus on phone-based interactions
    • Guide customers through technical troubleshooting in a clear, structured manner
    • Translate complex technical issues into simple, actionable steps
    • Maintain control of customer interactions while working through multi-step resolutions
    • Systems & Data Investigation
      • Investigate discrepancies across systems such as Salesforce, NetSuite, and internal platforms
      • Understand how data flows across systems and impacts device behavior and customer experience
      • Resolve issues tied to orders, devices, connectivity, and account configuration
      • Case Management & Escalation
      • Maintain detailed, accurate documentation of technical issues and resolution steps
      • Escalate issues when necessary with clear, complete, and actionable context
      • Partner with Engineering. Product, and Quality on deeper issues
      • Reduce unnecessary escalations through thorough investigation and problem-solving
      • Continuous Improvement
      • Identify recurring issues and contribute to long-term fixes
      • Improve troubleshooting guides, runbooks, and Help Center content
      • Stay current on product updates, system changes, and new technical workflows
      • Provide feedback to Product and Engineering to improve system reliability
      • Contribute to the continuous improvement of support processes, documentation, and troubleshooting resources.
      • Assist with special projects, product testing, or internal initiatives that help improve the customer experience.
      • Support the team during high-volume periods and maintain flexibility in a fast-paced, evolving startup environment.

Required Experience:

  • 3-7 years in technical support, support engineering, or similar roles
  • Experience in a complex system environment (hardware + software preferred)
  • Strong experience with:
  • Log analysis and system diagnostics
  • Troubleshooting across multiple systems (CRM, ERP, internal tools)
  • Familiarity with tools such as Salesforce, NetSuite, Zendesk, or similar
  • Experience operating in a real-time, phone-first support environment
  • Strong problem-solving skills with a bias toward ownership and resolution
  • Detail-oriented with strong documentation habits
