This is a 6-month contract position based hybrid out of our Dublin office, supporting Megaport's global customer base across a range of technical, account, and general inquiries. You'll be the first point of contact via phone and web-based platforms, helping customers navigate challenges and get the most out of our services.

Fast-paced and ever-evolving, this role suits someone who thrives on problem-solving, works well independently, and brings strong attention to detail. You'll communicate clearly and confidently, fostering positive customer experiences and building trust with every interaction.

As a customer advocate, you'll work closely with teams across the globe—escalating technical issues, collaborating on solutions, and contributing to a culture of service excellence. This is a great opportunity to gain hands-on experience within a high-growth tech environment, backed by a collaborative and supportive team.

About Megaport

We're not your typical tech company – and we don't want to be. Megaport is the global leader in Network as a Service (NaaS), and has transformed the way businesses connect to the cloud, data centers, and each other. We're publicly listed on the Australian Stock Exchange and partnered with the biggest names in tech like Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Oracle, IBM, and more. Headquartered in Brisbane with a crew of over 350 people spread across Asia-Pacific, Europe, and the Americas, our employees enjoy an environment that is collaborative, supportive, and (actually) fun.

Our Team Culture

We're a team of problem solvers, pixel pushers, code slingers, and cloud fanatics. Culture is more than a poster on the wall here – collaboration beats hierarchy, curiosity fuels our growth, and everyone's voice matters. We take our work seriously, but not ourselves. We work across time zones to execute on our global vision, trust each other to get things done, and never compromise our values for commercial gain. Most importantly, we place our customers at the center of everything we do.

What You'll Be Doing

• Deliver exceptional customer service through every interaction.
• Handle and manage inquiries across multiple communication channels.
• Consistently meet or exceed customer support KPIs and SLA targets.
• Comply with established procedures, policies, and operational standards.

• Apply creative problem-solving to deliver the best outcomes for customers.
• Coordinate requests from vendors, suppliers, and internal business units.
• Serve as a key liaison, providing accurate and detailed updates on unresolved incidents to business units, customers, and management.

What We Are Looking For

• Minimum of three years experience in network incident resolution, mitigation, deployment, and maintenance
• CCNA/JNCIA with work experience in network incident resolution or network infrastructure is required.
• Production experience with IS-IS, BGP, MPLS Traffic Engineering, and MPLS Layer 2/3 VPNs

• Fluent in English, with excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Comfortable working with internal and external stakeholders to deliver exceptional customer service.

• Health and wellness support – through a wellness allowance and employee wellbeing initiatives.
• Comprehensive learning support – generous study and training allowance plus paid study leave.
