Job Description:

Zipline is 100% remote and accepts applicants from the United Kingdom.

Hi. We're Zipline! We're helping put technology into the hands of those that need it most - - retail workers. If you have worked in a store, you know the drill. You're helping customers, ringing up orders, and trying to do the 30 tasks that HQ wants you to do. Some pertain to you. Some don't. But that's for you to figure out… all while putting out fires and keeping shelves tidy.

That's where we come in! We turn the grind of retail communications into an engaging, effective, aha solution. The Zipline platform ensures that the right people get the right information in the right way. Everyone is on the same page, tasks are tracked and life feels less like a perpetual game of hair-on-fire.

At Zipline, our Customer Success Engineers help improve the lives of our customers by supporting our front-line Support team (Tier 1 and 2) and our Account Managers. We're hiring a Customer Support Engineer who wants to help us continue to deliver the responsive, friendly, first-class customer service that our customers love and appreciate! If you are an empathetic, technically skilled problem solver with a knack for digging to the root of problems, offering solutions, and working with many cross functional partners, then you are what we're looking for!

Responsibilities

• Support our frontline Customer Support (Tier 1 and 2) team and Account managers with technical solutions to customer issues that get escalated due to level of complexity or customization of requests.
• Take the lead on identifying and escalating issues across multiple business units within the Retail Zipline organization (e.g. Account Management, Customer Success, Engineering, Product Management, etc.)
• Provide solutions to customer issues by developing custom scripts (in Ruby) and processes to ensure data integrity.
• Proactively take on challenges, research information, troubleshoot problems, and creatively deliver results that scale.
• You'll also be expected to write clean, modular code that's maintainable over time — including thoughtful architecture, consistent structure, and basic test coverage.
• We value sound design decisions and attention to code quality, especially when building tools that others will rely on. You don't need to be an expert, but you should care about creating solutions that are reliable and easy to evolve.
• Help create and maintain internal documentation and knowledge repositories
• Develop troubleshooting tips and tools to use in the diagnosis
• Identify manual repetitive tasks and processes that can be automated
• 1-3 years of professional work experience or equivalent working with Ruby on Rails, Web Services, API (RESTful), and IP based protocols
• 1-3 years of professional work experience or equivalent working with PostgreSQL/MySQL, or similar database systems
• 1-3 years of professional work experience or equivalent working with large scale Ruby on Rails applications
• 1-3 years experience working with different operating systems including Windows and Mac OS (specifically linux/bash)
• Experience writing clean, readable, and well-structured code
• Awareness of basic architectural patterns (e.g., modular design, separation of concerns)
• Some exposure to writing tests or validating your own code
• Strong troubleshooting/debugging skills and a real passion for problem-solving
• Time-management skills and the ability to establish reasonable and attainable deadlines for resolution
• Incredibly organized, detail-oriented and able to prioritize tasks, with exceptional critical-thinking and troubleshooting skills.
• 1-3 years of professional work experience or equivalent working with systems architecture, database design, and the Ruby language

What's in it for you:

• Remote: Join an effective remote team and work where you're comfortable
• Stock Options: Ownership in a fast-growing company
• Time Off: Flexible vacation policy to encourage people to get out and see the world.
• Benefits: 401k, and world-class medical, dental, and vision policies.
• Team Fun: Twice annual company off-sites in fun locations. We've done New York, Costa Rica, Whistler, Palm Springs, San Diego, and Mexico City.
• Learning: Sponsorship of meetup and conference attendance.
• Great team: Working with fun, hard-working, nice people who are committed to making a difference!

We value diversity of all kinds and are committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace where we learn from each other. We are an equal opportunity employer and welcome people of all different backgrounds, experiences, abilities, and perspectives.

Want to learn more about us?

How do we work? Remotely. We have been 100% remote since the company was founded and we have it down to a science - - a people science. We huddle as a team weekly and as a company 3 times a week. On Fridays, we come together to learn from each other. One week it might be about opossum rescue. Another week it might be an update on our product roadmap or the results of our customer satisfaction survey. We are all masters of Zoom and love the freedom of working from home - - or vans - - or sailboats.

Sound too good to be true? We haven't even gotten to our customers! Think about the best retail brands, from your favorite tennis shoes to yoga pants. They're customers. And, in addition to dozens of specialty retailers, this year we added grocery store, pharmacy, and convenience store brands.

We have made incredible progress but changing the industry is hard. We are well funded by leading venture capital firms like Emergence Capital and ready to scale. We need your help to improve the way that this 4.4 trillion dollar industry communicates with its store employees. Cumbersome, slow, and inefficient systems should not be the status quo. Help us retool retail.
