Additional Information
Product Support Engineer Cooley is seeking a Product Support Engineer to join the Product team, which is part of the larger Innovation group at the firm.
About Cooley: Cooley is a global law firm with an expansive practice and more than 3,000 employees and partners worldwide. We value and celebrate diverse perspectives and strive to create a workplace where every individual can thrive. At the core of Cooley's success is the exceptional talent and unwavering spirit of our people. We embrace individuality while fostering a 'one-firm' culture where collaboration and creativity thrive. Our people are the foundation of our success and the driving force behind everything we do.
Hybrid Schedule: As part of the Cooley culture, we recognize and appreciate the value of being together, in person, to build comradery with others in the office and to be a contributing member of the Cooley office. However, we also appreciate the benefits and flexibility that come from remote working. As such, the default assumption for employees and partners is a hybrid schedule: some in-office presence and some work from home days absent certain essential in-office roles that require five (5) days/week in-office.
Position summary: As a leading technology law firm, Cooley is committed to becoming a leader in the digital practice of law. To support this mission, the Product Support Engineer plays a critical role within the support team by serving as the primary escalation point for complex and technically challenging product issues across Cooley's application portfolio. Under the direction of the Manager of Support and Training, and with guidance from the Associate Director of Product, the Product Support Engineer bridges support and engineering by triaging, analyzing, and investigating unresolved or recurring issues. This role focuses on identifying root causes, validating resolutions, and determining appropriate next steps before escalating issues to product and development teams for final resolution, helping to improve product stability, performance, and quality over time. Specific duties and responsibilities include, but are not limited to, the following:
Position responsibilities:
Advanced Support & Escalation
Serve as the Level 2+ escalation owner for issues unsolved by product support specialists
Perform structured triage, including replication, root‑cause hypothesis, impact assessment, and recommended next step
Resolve issues directly when feasible (configuration, small fixes, scripts, workflows)
For issues requiring engineering intervention, create high‑quality development tickets with clear problem statements, logs, reproduction steps, and acceptance criteria
Partner with engineering to validate fixes and support release readiness
Cross-Functional Collaboration
Act as connective tissue between support, product, engineering, and training
Communicate trends, recurring defects, and product gaps to product managers
Participate in agile ceremonies when requested (backlog grooming, sprint planning, bug triage)
Quality, Stability & Readiness
Identify patterns in escalations and proactively recommend improvements to documentation, training materials, support workflows, or product features
Contribute to release readiness reviews by validating bug fixes and contributing acceptance notes
Share knowledge with support specialists and participate in their skill development under guidance of the product support & training manager
All other duties as assigned or required
