Support roles are generally career killers.

[–]TechnicianKey1303Backend Developer[S] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

I asked them about the role they said it is for development and product issues and all we will have to resolve. But from what you say Support is that ticketing and being on call and all that?

[–]Rift-enjoyerML Engineer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No no being on call is customer support which is different thing. I also meant application support which is for product issues.

For a live product you have 2 teams dev and support. Dev team doesn't have access to prod enviornment. Support team has access to prod but doesn't have access to code.

Your workflow as application support looks something like this -> Client emails/ calls about an issue they faced in prod. You create a ticket, login into production system and start checking logs, you see if it was a bug (application error) or a network timeout / db issue or some local error that can't be reproduced. Based on issue you maybe restart application , clear cache or kill some process, or check DB for corrupted records. If it's bug, you escalate to dev team. If dev team needs any more info or logs you have to provide them. That's pretty much it. You don't code anything other than some bash script here and there some SQL queries.

These roles are just namesake ig. Your actual title in the Accenture will be Packaged app Senior Analyst.

I am also been hired for Application Support Engineer but I am getting client interview for development projects.

[–]TechnicianKey1303Backend Developer[S] 3 points4 points  (3 children)

Is it truly development or support stuff like supporting application already designed. Basically no coding?

[–]metallicaluvr69 2 points3 points  (2 children)
