The Role

The Senior Software Support Engineer plays a vital role in keeping the Kenan Billing environment-and the critical billing processes it supports-running reliably and accurately. At the center of the billing operation, this person helps ensure that essential applications remain stable across Linux and Windows Server platforms, so the business can deliver timely, accurate billing with confidence.

Each day brings opportunities to solve complex problems and make a meaningful impact. When an issue arises, the Senior Software Support Engineer follows the clues: troubleshooting technical challenges, analyzing data, navigating batch processes, and using scripting to uncover root causes and move solutions forward. Along the way, this person partners closely with business, application, infrastructure, and operational teams, bringing people and technology together to restore service and keep critical processes moving.

The Software Support Engineer helps build a more reliable and efficient billing ecosystem for tomorrow. For someone who enjoys solving challenging problems, collaborating across teams, and seeing the direct impact of technical expertise on business-critical operations, this role offers the opportunity to do meaningful work and help shape a stronger, more resilient billing experience.
