The ideal candidate should be comfortable working with web-based applications, communicating with customers in English, investigating issues independently, and escalating technical problems when deeper investigation is required.
This is not a script-based customer service role. We are looking for someone who is technically curious, resourceful, detail-oriented, and comfortable learning a complex technology product.

• Help customers understand and use product features, workflows, configurations, and modules.

• Document tickets clearly with relevant details, screenshots, steps to reproduce, and supporting information.
• Create Loom videos to explain product workflows or solutions when appropriate.
• Join customer calls when required to understand or resolve issues.
• Identify issues requiring deeper technical investigation and elevate them to Tier 2.
• Communicate issue status, progress, and resolution clearly to customers.
• Follow defined response, resolution, and escalation SLAs.
• Maintain ticket and queue hygiene and ensure customers receive timely updates.
• Contribute to help-center articles, FAQs, and internal knowledge-base documentation.
• Support operational activities such as data quality checks, data enrichment, comment moderation, categorization, and data extraction when required.
• Identify recurring customer issues and knowledge gaps and suggest improvements.
• Work closely with Tier 2, Customer Success, Product, and Engineering teams.

Required Skills & Qualifications: -

• 1–3 years of experience in SaaS, application, technical, or customer support.
• Excellent written and spoken English.

• HTML/CSS
• Web browsers and browser Developer Tools
• HTTP/API concepts
• JSON
• Basic SQL/data concepts
• Familiarity with support/ticketing platforms such as Zendesk, HubSpot, Jira, or similar tools.
• Comfortable using Slack/Teams and remote collaboration tools.
• Strong attention to detail.
• Ability to manage multiple tickets while working against response-time SLAs.
• Ability to investigate problems rather than simply follow predefined checklists.
• Strong ownership and willingness to learn a complex product.

Good to Have: -

• Experience supporting enterprise SaaS products.
• Exposure to Datadog or similar monitoring tools.
• Exposure to Databricks or similar data platforms.
• Basic API testing using Postman or similar tools.
• Basic JavaScript knowledge.
• Experience with CRM/helpdesk platforms.
