Your Role
Support Engineers implement creative solutions to the problems our customers face. The work is highly dynamic and can range from debugging an issue with our integrations, adding a new feature to a customer’s website using our API, or digging into our search engine to determine the best way to optimize search results for our customers. The environment is fast paced and highly collaborative. As a small team, you will have the opportunity to work cross departmentally and interface with teammates in many different roles. You will have a team of experienced engineers to rely on for help while also exercising the ability to solve problems autonomously.
More About You
You love getting to the bottom of things and finding the root cause- band aid solutions won’t do. You have tremendous investigative abilities that help you find solutions. You have a great technical aptitude, but are also eager to obtain new knowledge to grow your skill set. You have solid interpersonal skills that will help put customers at ease knowing they are in great hands. You are detail oriented and dependable-- a bad day for you is to let someone down, whether a it be a customer or teammate.
