Why You’ll Love This Role

We are seeking an experienced and strategic Support Knowledge Manager to establish, lead, and mature the Knowledge Management (KM) program within our Technical Support organization. In this critical role, you will be responsible for developing and executing a comprehensive KM strategy centered around Knowledge-Centered Service (KCS) principles. Your primary objective is to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of our Technical Support Engineers (TSEs), significantly improve customer self-service success, ensure the consistency and quality of support knowledge, and capture invaluable organizational expertise.

A key strategic aspect of this role involves structuring and optimizing our knowledge base to ultimately power both human and AI-driven customer support solutions, directly contributing to the intelligence of our platform and support tools. This position is pivotal in transforming how we capture, share, and leverage knowledge, moving beyond traditional knowledge base administration to build a scalable, intelligent system that underpins our support operations and aligns directly with our company mission as the Data Engine for IT and Security. You will champion a culture of knowledge sharing and continuous improvement, acting as a vital link between human expertise and system intelligence.

As An Active Member Of Our Team, You Will…

KM Strategy & KCS Leadership:

• Develop, implement, and continuously refine the overarching Knowledge Management strategy for the Technical Support organization, ensuring alignment with departmental objectives, KCS best practices, and the company's strategic goals.
• Serve as the primary champion and expert for Knowledge-Centered Service (KCS), driving its adoption, maturity, and integration into the daily operations and performance metrics of the Technical Support team.
• Establish and enforce KM governance frameworks, including defining clear policies, content standards, lifecycle processes, and roles/responsibilities to ensure program effectiveness and sustainability.

Content Lifecycle & Quality Management:

• Oversee the complete knowledge content lifecycle for both internal support use and external customer self-service, encompassing identification of knowledge gaps, facilitation of content creation, rigorous quality review and approval workflows, publishing, periodic review for relevance, and archival of outdated information.
• Define, document, and enforce standards for knowledge article quality, ensuring consistency in tone and style, logical structure, and the application of robust metadata and tagging strategies to optimize findability and usability.
• Implement and manage processes for regular content audits, performance analysis, and updates, ensuring the knowledge base remains accurate, relevant, and trustworthy.

Knowledge Capture & Centralization:

• Design and implement effective methodologies and processes to capture, document, and transform tacit ("tribal") knowledge held by TSEs and Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) into explicit, structured, and reusable knowledge assets.
• Lead initiatives to consolidate knowledge from disparate sources (e.g., wikis, documents, internal chats) into a centralized, searchable, and accessible knowledge base.
