Product Support Specialist
About the role
DAT is an award-winning employer of choice and a next-generation SaaS technology company that has been at the leading edge of innovation in transportation supply chain logistics for 45 years. We operate the largest marketplace of its kind in North America, with 400 million freights posted in 2022, and a database of $150 billion of annual global shipment market transaction data. Headquarters are in Denver, CO, and Beaverton, OR, with additional offices in Missouri and Bangalore, India.
This Senior Technical Support & Integration Specialist role is based in Tigard, OR (Hybrid). You will serve as a primary technical authority and escalation path across DAT’s SaaS product suite and integration ecosystem, partnering directly with VIP enterprise customers to architect, validate, and support custom integrations, navigating complex multi-week case investigations, and acting as a technical mentor across the support organization. Application deadline: 12/1/2026.
Responsibilities
- VIP Customer Integration & Technical Advisory: Deliver high-quality service and support to all DAT customers and employees; schedule and lead technical working sessions with VIP customers to design, configure, and troubleshoot API and system-to-system integrations; evaluate and certify proprietary or custom integrations created by customers who do not use commercially available off-the-shelf software; function as the primary technical advisor during integration onboarding, major platform migrations, and complex system updates.
- Advanced Case Management & Technical Escalations: Own, track, and systematically resolve a heavy load of multi-step, multi-week technical cases through detailed diagnostic log analysis, API payload inspection, and root cause analysis; monitor incoming volume continuously to identify critical or VIP customer escalations, taking immediate action to mitigate operational risk; serve as a flexible call center backstop, stepping in to directly handle front-line phone, chat, and email channels during queue spikes or short-staffing scenarios.
- Engineering Collaboration & Knowledge Transfer: Bridge the gap between customers and Product/Engineering by translating customer defect trends into detailed technical bug reports and change requests; participate in User Acceptance Testing (UAT) for release candidates to validate functionality and integration reliability prior to deployment; turn high-complexity escalations into actionable coaching sessions, closing the loop with front-line engineers to upskill the broader support organization; maintain comprehensive internal knowledge bases, API integration guides, and troubleshooting runbooks.
Requirements
- 3–5+ years of direct experience delivering Tier 2/Tier 3 technical support or integration engineering for SaaS products.
- Strong technical background in integrations: experience inspecting and debugging API calls (REST/JSON/SOAP), using API testing tools (e.g., Postman), parsing system logs, and analyzing network traffic.
- Demonstrated case management experience: proven ability to manage, prioritize, and resolve a large queue of long-running, multi-week technical cases without losing detail or traction.
- Technical Certification: CompTIA A+, Network+, or equivalent industry certification strongly preferred.
- Exceptional communication: ability to clearly explain complex technical root causes to both non-technical stakeholders and engineering teams.
- High School Diploma or equivalent required; degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or related field preferred.
- System Requirements: DAT provides a laptop and productivity equipment. A dedicated, hard-wired ethernet connection (router/modem to laptop) is required for hybrid employees to ensure security and call quality (wireless, satellite, and cellular hotspots do not qualify).
