Job description

What You'll Do

In this role, you will become an expert on an area of the Pixelogic Product suite and grow knowledge overtime, especially our Platform / Toolset. You will work on customer-facing activities like troubleshooting and supporting them to optimize their use of Pixelogic platforms. You will act as an escalation point for critical technical issues. You will learn how our largest customers use Pixelogic tools on a day-to-day basis and you will become the voice of the customer to our Product and Development Teams. You will collaborate directly with not only our users but also with other internal teams such as Engineering, R&D, DevOps, and Security. You will develop technically and professionally with these internal connections and benefit from supplemental training on topics and opportunities such as tooling, project management, and personal development. You will focus on improving our Support processes, measurements, and beta new approaches / technologies. Additionally, you will act as a key member of our Support team and help onboard, grow, and cross train as the team grows.

Who You Are

You are the person always left looking for a solution when others have given up. You live for thinking through issues, finding novel solutions to tough problems, and improving process. You are the type of person that likes to take things apart and rebuild them to see how they work. You are smart, resourceful and charismatic. You communicate issues to engineers on a technical level yet speak clearly to customers. You are a self-starter and can easily motivate yourself when given a project or a task. While you may never have considered a role in technical support, you are excited by the idea of revolutionizing how a company resolves its customers' technical needs. While you may not have a technical background, you feel comfortable working to support users that are more technical and identifying the right resources to assist them and enhance your own knowledge and skills
