Answer 1

Have you opened a ticket with the vendor since this isn't a Microsoft-provided timer job?

Answer 2

Hi @sns ,

A Timer Job is a periodically executed task inside SharePoint Server. It provides us a task execution environment. For example, we can execute tasks like: sending emails every hour, data updating every day, creating reports every week, etc.

Here is a SharePoint Server 2016 default Timer job list, you could check whether the stuck timer job is in the list.
Default timer jobs in SharePoint Server 2016

If it is Microsoft’s default Timer job, which timer jobs are stuck? You can also click to view the running plan of this stuck Timer job and try to restart it.

And as trevor mentioned, if it isn't a Microsoft-provided timer job, I would suggest you consult the third-party suppliers.
