Support Experience & Automation Specialist: our view in 3 lines...
- The Role: A systems-minded role owning self-service and AI-driven support systems to reduce customer contacts and improve automated resolution for a technology product.
- The Person: Own and improve the Self-Service Ecosystem by designing AI workflows, implementing Salesforce automations, handling escalations to update the knowledge base, and enabling offshore partners with automated training and QA.
- Requirements: 1–2 years in a technical support or helpdesk environment, understanding of Salesforce’s backend setup, and experience using or experimenting with AI and automation.
Job Description
We are looking for a systems-minded professional to bridge the gap between technical support and automation engineering. This is not a traditional "ticket-taking" role. You will be the primary owner of our Self-Service Ecosystem, using AI and CRM automation to ensure our customers find answers before they ever need to reach out to a human.
What You’ll Do
-
Prototyping and Experimentation: Design and pilot experimental AI workflows to proactively address customer friction points before they appear in data
-
Salesforce Operations: You will identify and help implement workflow improvements within Salesforce to make our internal processes faster and more automated.
-
Root-Cause Escalations: You will handle high-level technical escalations, but with a twist—your primary goal is to use those escalations to update our AI and Knowledge Base so the issue never happens again.
-
Technical Enablement: You will own the "Technical Truth" for our offshore partners, creating automated training modules and QA frameworks to ensure they are performing at a high technical standard.
-
Peak Period Support: During peak periods, you will act as a core technical support agent, directly handling complex cases, critical system issues, and high-priority user requests, ensuring rapid resolution while maintaining service reliability and operational standards.
-
Knowledge Management: Develop a cross-platform content strategy that optimizes the Knowledge Base for 'Search-First' and 'AI-First' discovery, ensuring high semantic relevance for LLM retrieval.
Why You’re a Fit
-
You have 1–2 years in a technical support or helpdesk environment.
-
You can look at a confusing technical error and immediately rewrite it into a clear, helpful solution that a non-technical user can understand.
-
You have an understanding of Salesforce’s backend setup (you don't need to be a certified Admin, but you should know how to navigate the backend and understand how data flows).
-
You have a logic-first mindset—you enjoy building "If/Then" scenarios and workflows.
-
You are passionate about AI and Automation and want a role where you can actually build and manage these tools, not just use them. Any experience using or experimenting with AI or vibe coding is a plus!
-
