  • Provide hands-on technical support: Maintain your own technical expertise by actively supporting enterprise customers and complex issues alongside your team.
  • Drive operational improvements: Identify gaps and bottlenecks, create and implement new workflows, KPIs, and targets; operationalize improvements across the team.
  • Bridge critical functions: Serve as a primary conduit between Support, Engineering, and Revenue teams; communicate customer needs and product gaps to leadership.
  • Ensure global coverage: Manage scheduling and coverage to support enterprise customers across all time zones with consistent quality and responsiveness.
  • Build and maintain documentation: Ensure your team has clear, accurate, and up-to-date resources to support customers effectively.

Requirements

  • Deep technical expertise: Seasoned subject matter expert with strong understanding of customer support, the AI landscape, APIs, different AI such as TTS and LLMs, and telephony systems (e.g. Twilio, SIP, WebSockets).
  • Proven leadership experience: Track record of building and leading high-performing teams, developing people, and driving results.
  • Technical execution capability: Able to perform the work yourself and mentor others; comfortable reading and troubleshooting code as well as more ambiguous troubleshooting such as AI.
  • Operational excellence: Experience managing metrics, KPIs, and smooth operations in fast-moving environments; strong administrative and organizational skills.
  • Problem-solving mindset: Proactively identify gaps and drive solutions rather than just raising issues; work across stakeholders to action outcomes.

Who You Are

  • Analytically sharp: Approach problems with first-principles thinking and data-driven decision-making.
  • A strong communicator: Translate technical complexity into clear, actionable insights for customers, your team, and leadership.
  • Self-directed and driven: Don't wait for instructions; hold yourself and your team to a high standard.
