support and technical advice
who have proven experience and are able to provide support and technical advice (to avoid repeating "support"), or perhaps "advice and technical support"?
I am not sure whether they are jsut repeating the concept of "technical support" - in which case I would just use this term to encompass both soporte and respaldo - or whether "técnico" does not refer to "soporte", which is meant to stand alone (in which case I would use my suggestion).

technical credentials and background
Taking the phrase out of context, I would have agreed with Carlos, but the context indicates the job offer is for someone with technical skills, so in fact "technical support" does not fit

Spanish term (edited):
experiencia, soporte y respaldo técnico
experience, backing and technical support
I think this is the order; they are separate items:
experiencia en el servicio solicitado
soporte en el servicio solicitado
respaldo técnico en el servicio solicitado.
My 2 cents...

You can use patinba's suggestion of "credentials" for "soporte", but I still think that's the order of the phrase.
"...experience, credentials and technical support as regards/on the requested service."
experiencia en el servicio solicitado
soporte en el servicio solicitado
respaldo técnico en el servicio solicitado.

expertise, references, and support
I think "respaldo" may mean references, Jamie. It depends on the country of origin of the document.

I suggest "expertise" because your source document might be a poor translation.
Another possibility: experience, a solid reputation, and access to technical support.
