About the role

The Associate Technical Analyst serves as a key contributor within the WFE or ETS Support team, supporting the configuration, integration, and ongoing technical operations of the Workforce Edge, Sophia, and Salesforce platforms.

Responsibilities

• Partner with engineering teams across ETS to ensure they have the information needed to resolve technical issues.
• Conduct root-cause analysis of complex platform issues, tracing system behavior through logs, API traces, and database state to determine whether resolution requires configuration change, code change, or architectural revision.
• Partner with business owners and product stakeholders to analyze new platform and integration requirements, surface ambiguities, and produce functional specifications that engineering teams can build from without further translation.
• Serve as the technical authority during on-call rotations, evaluating incidents in real time, determining escalation paths, and designing remediations to restore service continuity.
• Lead post-incident analysis, identifying systemic root causes and recommending architectural or process changes that prevent recurrence and improve platform reliability.
• Advise other departments on platform capabilities, limitations, and the technical implications of proposed business decisions, representing engineering as a subject matter expert in cross-functional discussions.
• Investigate and analyze platform data using SQL and API tooling to support technical decisions, identify trends, and validate system behavior against specification.

• Working knowledge of SSO and identity management systems, including the ability to configure, troubleshoot, and specify security requirements for platform integrations.
• Proficiency reading, writing, and analyzing JSON in the context of API design and platform engineering.
• SQL proficiency sufficient for data analysis, system investigation, and technical reporting.
• Proficiency with relational and non-relational databases, with the ability to conduct technical investigation and root-cause analysis.
• Familiarity with enterprise SaaS platform architecture and the ability to evaluate and optimize complex SaaS environments.
