Production Support Lead

Professional Services -Service Practice Full-time · Remote (India / US / EU) Experience : 5-8 years About Lyzr Lyzr.ai's agentic AI platform powers intelligent, autonomous workflows for enterprise clients. Production Support Engineers are the front line that keeps those workflows healthy — triaging incidents, resolving tickets, digging into logs, and escalating the right issues to the right teams before clients feel the pain. This role suits someone who thrives in a fast-paced technical environment, takes ownership seriously, and genuinely enjoys the detective work of diagnosing why something broke in production. You will work within a global follow-the-sun support model, reporting to the Production Support Lead. What you’ll do Incident command & escalation Own the full incident lifecycle — detection, triage, war-room coordination, resolution, and post-mortem — for P1/P2 issues across all production tenants. Act as the primary escalation point for Production Support Engineers; make the call on severity reclassification and client communication timing. Drive RCA completion within SLA windows and ensure corrective actions are tracked to closure in Jira/Confluence. Maintain and continuously improve the P1 runbook library, escalation trees, and on-call rotation schedules. Team leadership & operations Manage and mentor a team of 3–6 Production Support Engineers; run weekly 1:1s, set KPIs, and own the performance review cycle. Build and optimise the shift rota for 24x7x365 follow-the-sun coverage across India, EU, and US time zones. Define and track operational metrics: MTTR, SLA attainment by priority tier, re-open rate, and backlog aging. Partner with Engineering and Platform teams to advocate for supportability improvements, observability tooling, and bug-fix prioritisation. Client & commercial accountability Serve as the named support contact for strategic accounts during critical incidents; provide executive-level written updates under pressure. Review monthly SLA performance reports with client stakeholders; identify systemic patterns and propose proactive remediation. Contribute to SLA definition in new SOWs, ensuring commitments are operationally deliverable. Support the renewal and expansion process by demonstrating support maturity and service quality data. Process & tooling Own the support toolchain: ticketing (Jira Service Management or equivalent), monitoring dashboards, alerting rules, and on-call tooling (PagerDuty / OpsGenie). Establish knowledge management practices — internal runbooks, known-error database, and a tiered FAQ — to reduce repeat escalations to Engineering. Define and enforce severity classification criteria and ticket hygiene standards across the team.
