Technical Support Engineer

About STATSports

What if the problem you helped solve today meant an elite athlete could train, analyse, or compete without disruption tomorrow?

At STATSports, that could be your reality.

Since 2007, we've grown from a small Irish start up into the global leader in GPS performance tracking, trusted by the world's biggest clubs, leagues, and athletes. Our technology sits at the intersection of hardware, software, and sport, helping teams optimise performance, reduce injury risk, and unlock insights that were previously impossible.

But just as importantly, our products support the next generation of athletes, from academies to grassroots, giving them access to the same performance tools as the pros.

Innovation has always driven us forward, and it's our people who make that happen.

The opportunity

We're looking for a Technical Support Engineer to join our growing Technical Support team and help deliver a world class support experience across both our Consumer and Elite Sporting customer base.

This is a highly hands on, customer facing role where you'll act as a key technical point of contact, resolving complex software, hardware, and connectivity issues and ensuring our customers receive a seamless, first contact resolution experience wherever possible.

You'll work closely with Engineering, Product, Customer Success, and Account Management teams in a Continuous Improvement (CI) environment, actively contributing to Root Cause Problem Solving (RCPS) and helping shape more robust, reliable products used at the very top of sport.

If you enjoy problem solving, taking ownership of technical challenges, and making a real world impact for customers and athletes alike, this role will suit you.

What you'll be doing

• Acting as the primary technical point of contact for software related queries, resolving complex full stack and mobile application issues from initial investigation through to resolution
• Diagnosing and resolving issues with USB connected hardware, including device detection failures, driver conflicts, power delivery issues, firmware compatibility, and data transfer errors across Windows and macOS
• Supporting end to end USB workflows such as device provisioning, firmware updates, secure data extraction, and troubleshooting physical connection faults (cables, ports, hubs, docking stations)
• Providing support for network connected devices, including configuration, connectivity troubleshooting, IP/DHCP issues, firewall restrictions, and Wi Fi/Ethernet performance problems
• Diagnosing data transmission and synchronisation issues between devices and cloud or on prem systems, using logs, packet level reasoning, and network diagnostic tools
• Becoming a product champion, developing deep expertise in our product suite and identifying opportunities to improve reliability, usability, and customer experience
• Assisting with release management, including preparation, documentation, and deployment of software updates and patches to our global customer base
• Contributing to the evolution of Technical Support processes, participating in RCPS sessions to prevent recurring issues and improving long term product quality
• Partnering with Account Managers and Customer Success teams to deliver a premium, end to end support journey for all customers

You'll likely enjoy this role if you:

• Have 1-3 years' experience in a fast paced IT application support, technical support, or junior development environment
• Have foundational knowledge of C# (or similar object oriented languages) and Angular
• Are comfortable working with SQL databases such as MySQL

• Have a solid understanding of defect and incident management within the Software Development Lifecycle
• Are confident troubleshooting across both Windows and macOS environments

• Enjoy collaborating across engineering, product, and customer facing teams

Nice to have (but not essential)

• Familiarity with support and ticketing tools such as Zendesk, Jira Service Management, or similar

What's in it for you

• A customer and product focused support role where your work directly supports tools used in elite sport
• The opportunity to develop deep technical knowledge across software, hardware, and networking
• Exposure to real world engineering challenges and close collaboration with product and development teams
