Job Summary

HaloMD is seeking a detail-oriented and technically skilled Application Support Specialist to provide first and second-level support for key business applications. This role is critical in ensuring that our internal teams can rely on stable, efficient software systems to deliver exceptional service across the organization.

You’ll be the go-to resource for diagnosing and resolving system and data-related issues, supporting end users, and collaborating with IT and development teams to escalate complex problems. The ideal candidate is a strong communicator with experience using SQL, troubleshooting application issues, and translating technical solutions into user-friendly guidance.

Essential Job Duties and Responsibilities

• Serve as the first and second-level point of contact for business application support, responding to user inquiries via ticketing systems, email, or direct communication in a timely and professional manner.
• Diagnose, troubleshoot, and resolve a wide range of application issues including system errors, data inconsistencies, configuration challenges, and integration problems.
• Triage and prioritize incoming support requests based on business need, user urgency, and system impact; ensure critical issues are escalated appropriately and lower-priority items are managed efficiently.
• Develop a working knowledge of the supported applications and the business processes they enable in order to distinguish between system defects, user misunderstandings, or expected behaviors; collaborate with users to clarify problem reports and confirm true system issues.
• Utilize SQL to perform data validation, extract key insights, and identify the root causes of application-related issues; develop ad-hoc queries and assist with database analysis as needed.
• Provide one-on-one or group training sessions for end users on application features, functionality, and best practices; create user-friendly documentation and how-to guides to support self-service learning.
• Maintain detailed records of incidents, service requests, resolution steps, and technical procedures in internal knowledge bases to support long-term process improvement and team collaboration.
• Partner with product, IT, QA, and development teams to escalate unresolved issues, contribute to root cause analyses, and participate in solution design discussions.
• Assist with functional and user acceptance testing (UAT) of application upgrades, patches, and new releases to ensure a stable deployment environment; provide post-deployment monitoring and feedback.
• Monitor application performance and proactively identify trends or recurring issues; recommend enhancements to improve reliability, user experience, or efficiency.
• Ensure all support actions align with internal service-level agreements (SLAs), compliance requirements, and data security standards.
• Identify opportunities to streamline support processes, improve system usability, and enhance overall support delivery through automation, feedback loops, and documentation enhancements.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in computer science, Information Systems, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 3+ years of experience in application support, technical support, or a related role.
• Proficiency in SQL, including writing queries for data validation and issue investigation.
• Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills with attention to detail.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to convey technical information clearly to non-technical stakeholders.
• Familiarity with ticketing and issue tracking systems (e.g., Azure DevOps, FreshService, or similar).

Preferred Attributes

• Experience working in a healthcare or regulated industry is a plus.
• Understanding of software development processes and Agile environments.
• Ability to work independently and manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced setting.

Benefits:
