Role Description
Cimulate is the leader in Agentic Search for ecommerce, both as a standalone platform and as a key part of Salesforce Commerce Cloud. Commerce Cloud enables global brands to deliver personalized, scalable ecommerce experiences across digital storefronts, mobile applications, and online channels.
We are looking for a highly motivated Support Engineer to join our growing Commerce Cloud and Cimulate support organization. This role sits at the intersection of customer success, platform operations, ecommerce search, and technical troubleshooting. You will partner closely with Engineering, Customer Success Managers, and Product teams to help customers successfully operate and optimize their ecommerce search experiences.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys solving complex technical problems, debugging distributed systems, working directly with enterprise customers, and building expertise in modern AI-powered ecommerce infrastructure.
The ideal candidate combines strong customer communication skills with a data-driven investigative mindset — comfortable digging into logs, queries, and configuration to trace a customer-reported symptom to its root cause across APIs, ecommerce systems, search relevance, and data pipelines.
Your Impact
Serve as a primary technical contact for customers experiencing issues with Cimulate and Salesforce Commerce Cloud integrations
Investigate and resolve customer-reported issues across ecommerce search, inference behavior, data pipelines, indexing, APIs, and platform configuration
Partner closely with Engineering teams on escalation triage, root-cause analysis, and customer-specific debugging
Analyze platform behavior using logs, SQL queries, YAML configuration, dashboards, and debugging tools
Support Kubernetes- and GitOps-based operational workflows, including configuration validation and deployment troubleshooting
Communicate clearly and effectively with Customer Success Managers, technical stakeholders, and enterprise customers throughout the support lifecycle
Document investigations as clear, structured root-cause writeups — verdict first, root cause before the supporting data — and identify recurring issues that feed operational improvements, tooling, and the knowledge base
Develop expertise in ecommerce search concepts including relevance, ranking, merchandising, catalog structure, and customer experience optimization
Collaborate within a global, fast-paced support environment focused on customer satisfaction and operational excellence
Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives across support processes, incident management, and escalation workflows
Minimum Requirements
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or equivalent practical experience
2+ years of experience supporting SaaS platforms, ecommerce technologies, search platforms, or cloud-based applications
Experience with Salesforce Commerce Cloud, ecommerce search solutions, or adjacent ecommerce technologies
Strong troubleshooting and analytical problem-solving skills in customer-facing technical environments
Strong hands-on SQL skills for investigation and data analysis — comfortable writing joins, aggregations, and subqueries, and reasoning across large or time-partitioned datasets (experience with a cloud data warehouse such as BigQuery, Snowflake, or Redshift is a strong plus)
Familiarity with structured configuration formats such as YAML and JSON
Basic scripting or debugging experience with Bash, Python, Go, or similar languages
A systematic, evidence-driven troubleshooting approach — forms a hypothesis, tests it against data and logs, and works from symptom to verified root cause rather than stopping at the first plausible answer
Familiarity with cloud-native infrastructure and GitOps/CI-CD workflows (Kubernetes, containerized services, ArgoCD, Helm, Git-based configuration management) is a plus, not a requirement
General understanding of ecommerce architecture, APIs, web technologies, and search/recommendation systems
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences
Ability to manage multiple priorities and effectively handle high-severity customer escalations in a fast-paced environment
Preferred Qualifications
Experience supporting AI-powered search, personalization, or recommendation platforms
Familiarity with Kubernetes, Helm, ArgoCD, or cloud infrastructure debugging
Experience troubleshooting distributed systems, APIs, or data pipelines
Experience working in environments using modern observability and incident-management practices
Familiarity with ecommerce search concepts such as indexing, ranking, relevance tuning, facets, and merchandising
Experience working cross-functionally with Engineering, Product, and Customer Success organizations
Knowledge of web technologies including HTML, JavaScript, APIs, and browser debugging tools
Fluency using AI assistants as an investigative force-multiplier — e.g. turning a plain-language goal into working SQL, summarizing logs, or building reusable prompts and workflows — paired with the technical depth to read that output critically and catch a plausible-looking but wrong result before acting on it. We care more that you can tell a correct answer from a convincing wrong one than that you write every query from scratch.
Why Join Us
Join an AI-forward support team that uses modern AI tools to investigate faster and document better — we expect you to work the way the best engineers already do, using AI to accelerate the work while owning the correctness of every answer
Work on cutting-edge AI-powered ecommerce search technology at global scale
Collaborate closely with world-class Engineering, Product, and Customer Success teams
Develop expertise across cloud infrastructure, ecommerce systems, AI applications, and customer operations
