Velora is looking for a Senior Technical Support Engineer to take on complex, high-stakes problem solving across Aplos, Raisely, and Keela. As a Senior TSE, you'll fix bugs, build internal tools for your team and customer facing teams. Additionally, you’ll lead escalations, run incident response, and serve as the technical bridge between Customer Support Teams, Engineering, and Product.

We’re building an AI-native support team — one where AI agents and tools are embedded in how we triage, diagnose, and improve, not bolted on as an afterthought. You'll work within Velora's product suite — diagnosing issues at depth, using AI tooling that accelerates team output, and turning recurring customer pain into product improvements. You'll mentor other TSEs, define team standards, and set the bar for what great technical support looks like at this scale.

If you're someone who goes beyond the ticket, thinks in systems, and wants to have real influence on how a multi-product support org operates — this role is for you.

What will you be doing (your role)?

Escalation & Incident Ownership

• Serve as incident lead for high-severity, customer-impacting issues; run blameless post-mortems, define corrective actions, and track them to closure.
• Act as technical owner for a product area with defined SLAs, proactive health checks, and executive-ready status updates.
• Lead technical communications during incidents; set expectations and provide timely, clear updates until resolution.

AI-Augmented Troubleshooting

• Use Cursor as your primary AI workspace to triage, diagnose, and resolve issues faster. Drive log analysis, code exploration, and automation through Cursor agents, and share the prompts, workflows, and patterns that work with the team.
• Build lightweight scripts, automations, and macros in Cursor that reduce manual toil. Pilot and build tooling that speeds root cause isolation and roll the best of it out org wide.
• Build dashboards and saved searches across logs, product analytics (Metabase, Pendo), and tickets to detect regressions early and propose preventive fixes, using Cursor to accelerate the querying, scripting, and synthesis behind them.

Knowledge & Process Excellence

• Drive creation and upkeep of internal runbooks, decision trees, and troubleshooting guides; keep them updated after every major incident or recurring issue.
