  • Monitor support quality and operational performance, including resolution times, SLA performance, customer satisfaction, and automation impact.
  • Use support data and customer feedback to identify opportunities to improve team efficiency, service quality, and operational processes.
  • Balance hands‑on technical involvement with people leadership, ensuring the team maintains strong customer focus and technical standards.

  • Significant hands‑on experience supporting complex B2B SaaS, cybersecurity, identity, infrastructure, or similarly technical products.
  • Strong technical troubleshooting capabilities, including investigating ambiguous issues, working across APIs and integrations, interpreting logs and product behavior, and collaborating effectively with Engineering teams.
  • Experience leading a small technical team, either through direct people management or as a technical lead with meaningful coaching and operational responsibilities.
  • Strong judgment when managing customer escalations, with the ability to balance technical investigation, urgency, prioritization, and clear communication.
  • Demonstrated ability to develop engineers, provide constructive feedback, and improve team processes while remaining closely connected to technical work.
  • Experience using support metrics to identify operational issues, improve service quality, and increase team efficiency.
  • Practical interest in automation and AI‑driven support workflows, with an understanding of where human expertise and judgment remain essential.
  • Experience with SaaS security, identity management, OAuth, SAML, or enterprise application integrations is preferred.
