About AutoStore

About the role

As a Lead Software Sustaining Engineer, you own the escalated (Tier 2) defect queue end to end: reproducing customer-reported issues, working through logs, telemetry, and crash dumps to true root cause, and delivering a tested fix, workaround, or a diagnosis complete enough for Tier 3 to act on immediately.

What they're looking for

  • 5–8 years of relevant experience in software development, including demonstrated experience in a sustaining, production support, or Tier 2 escalation role
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer S cience , Software Engineering, or a related field. A master's degree is preferred, but not required
  • Proficiency in .NET, with the ability to read and debug unfamiliar code in a live production codebase
  • Strong understanding of software development methodologies and hands-on proficiency with debugging, log analysis, and observability/monitoring tooling
  • Strong independent problem solver — able to work from incomplete data, form and test hypotheses, determine true root cause, and drive the fix to closure with minimal direction
  • Strong communication skills, including the ability to explain technical status and root cause clearly to customers and stakeholders during active incidents
