  • Work with data to derive insights and proactively address issues.
  • Resolve issues efficiently by triaging, troubleshooting, and escalating technical bugs.
  • Maintain accurate records of customer interactions.
  • Think holistically by digging into root causes and developing effective solutions.
  • Leverage AI tools to work more efficiently and deliver smarter solutions.

We're looking for:

  • 3+ years of experience in customer service or contact center environments, preferably in B2B SaaS.
  • 3+ years in a full-time customer support or customer care role, preferably managing customer relationships.
  • Composure under pressure, adaptability, analytical thinking, clear-headed problem solving, cross-functional influence, customer-first mindset, excellent communication, sound judgment, strong organization, retention focus, quick product mastery, tech proficiency, and professional integrity.

Our cash compensation range for this role is $68,570 - $84,000 / year in Chicago and Denver.
