The Data Platform Support Engineer helps maintain and support enterprise data platforms, ensuring they remain reliable, secure and available. Typical responsibilities include monitoring systems, investigating incidents, resolving platform and data issues, supporting deployments, managing service requests and working with engineering, cloud and data teams. Candidates are generally expected to have experience supporting data or cloud platforms, strong troubleshooting and incident-management skills, and familiarity with SQL, scripting, Linux, databases and tools such as Azure, AWS, Databricks or similar technologies. Clear communication, documentation, customer focus and a willingness to participate in operational support or on-call rotations are also important. Accenture would value candidates who can work collaboratively in a consulting environment and continuously improve platform performance and support processes.
