The Gig

The Client Support Technical Specialist supports our Clients and internal teams on complex technical issues across our product suite.

You will be responsible for troubleshooting browser-based applications and ensuring that technical gaps are identified, documented, and resolved.

Key Responsibilities

• Technical Troubleshooting: Diagnose and resolve complex issues involving HTML, CSS, and backend processes.
• Issue Escalation: Identify and replicate product bugs; escalate them to the Product team via Jira, providing detailed technical context to speed up resolution.
• Client Communication: Act as the main technical point of contact for clients seeking assistance via Salesforce.
• Knowledge Sharing: Help senior staff focus on larger initiatives by taking on day-to-day technical tasks and documenting solutions.
• Product Influence: Act as an advocate for the client by fighting for features and bug fixes that improve the user experience.

Qualifications

• Experience: 3–5 years in a technical support or client-facing technical role.
• Ticketing Systems: Extensive experience working with Salesforce for client management and Jira for engineering escalations.
• Technical Proficiency: Strong ability to read and understand HTML and CSS; familiarity with JavaScript/jQuery is required to identify front-end issues.
• Technical Assets: Knowledge of databases (SQL), backend services, and web security principles is a significant advantage.
• Soft Skills: Excellent communication skills with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to non-technical users.
• Mindset: A passion for troubleshooting and solving "why" something is broken rather than just "how" to use a tool.

Success Metrics (KPIs)

Your performance will be evaluated based on:

• Client Satisfaction: Survey results from handled cases.
• Efficiency: Volume of tickets handled and "Time to First Pending".
• Technical Accuracy: Ability to correctly identify and escalate bugs to the engineering team.
