As the leading end-to-end platform for Strategic Portfolio Management (SPM) and Software Product Delivery, Planview's AI-powered solutions give leaders the strategic foresight to prioritize with precision, accelerate value delivery, and adapt with confidence.

Headquarters in Austin, Texas, with over 1,500 employees worldwide, Planview serves more than 3,000 customers and 3.1 million users globally, including 45 of the Fortune 100.

The Support Operations team is at the heart of Planview's customer experience, ensuring that enterprises around the world get the most value from Planview's industry-leading platform.

Role Summary

Technical Support Engineer I provides first-level technical support for Planview KeyedIn (enterprise PPM) Customer Care customers and internal employees, serving as the primary point of contact for a defined set of accounts and cases. In this role, you will independently resolve standard cases across user and license administration, project and resource management, reporting, data operations, and integration workflows, while investigating root causes and documenting durable solutions.

You will escalate complex or defect cases appropriately — acting as a liaison between customers and the Development and Cloud Operations teams — and guide customers on the product's proper use and best practices. As you grow, you will take on increasingly complex problems end-to-end and mentor Associate Technical Support Engineers, contributing to a high-performing, collaborative team. Success is measured by case resolution quality, SLA performance, customer satisfaction, and case hygiene.

•   Exposure to REST or SOAP APIs and tools such as Postman or cURL.

•   Practical familiarity with PPM concepts — projects, resources, timesheets, dashboards, reporting/widgets, and custom entities.

•   Understanding of identity and access management concepts (SSO, OAuth, RBAC, SAML).

•   Knowledge of the Planview product ecosystem, particularly KeyedIn or other PPM solutions.

•   Relevant technology certifications (Microsoft, AWS, ITIL, or similar).

Knowledge, Skills & Abilities

•   Willing to accept and adapt to change, showing flexibility and recovering relatively quickly from setbacks.

•   Actively participates in team meetings and seeks out collaboration opportunities without always waiting to be prompted.
