What you'll do

  • Resolve complex and escalated customer issues efficiently and with empathy, ensuring a high-quality support experience.
  • Independently investigate issues in web-based and configurable solutions, including behavior driven by configuration, permissions, integrations, APIs, and data.
  • Use diagnostic tools such as browser developer tools, API testing platforms (e.g., Postman), and log analysis tools to identify root causes and validate solutions, escalating when appropriate.
  • Apply practical web troubleshooting skills, including reading and troubleshooting HTML/CSS and applying a conceptual understanding of JavaScript (non-production) to isolate and explain issues.
  • Reproduce reported issues, test potential solutions, confirm outcomes, and clearly document findings for customers and internal teams.
  • Collaborate with Engineering to review logs, identify patterns, and contribute to long-term fixes for recurring or systemic issues.
  • Own customer follow-up and ensure timely resolution of open incidents in line with established service levels.
  • Author and maintain knowledgebase content using Knowledge-Centered Service (KCS) practices to support self-service and reduce case volume.
  • Analyze case trends and incident categories to help identify underlying causes and inform product and process improvements.
  • Mentor and support Associate-level team members, helping build technical capability and troubleshooting consistency across the team.
  • Participate in after-hours and weekend on-call rotations and work select holidays based on business and coverage needs.
  • Leverage AI-assisted tools to accelerate delivery and improve quality and actively experiment with emerging capabilities as they evolve.

What we're looking for

  • Strong technical troubleshooting experience, ideally in a B2B SaaS or enterprise software environment.
  • Proven ability to manage complex issues independently and collaborate across teams to drive resolution.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts in clear, customer-friendly language.
  • Experience working with diagnostic tools, including browser developer tools, API testing tools, and log analysis platforms.
  • Comfort troubleshooting web-based applications, particularly issues influenced by configuration and data-driven behavior.
  • Practical working knowledge of HTML and CSS (reading and basic troubleshooting).
  • Practical working knowledge of JavaScript concepts (conceptual understanding; not production coding).
  • Practical working knowledge of APIs and integrations involved in customer workflows and system behavior.
  • Experience creating and maintaining customer-facing documentation or knowledgebase content.
  • Professionalism, diplomacy, and sound judgment in high-pressure or time-sensitive situations.

Nice to have

  • Experience supporting configurable platforms or products with complex settings, permissions, or integrations.
  • Comfort investigating issues that span front-end behavior and backend or integration-driven systems.
  • Experience handling escalated customer issues and contributing to repeatable fixes through documentation and knowledge sharing.
