Customer Support Engineer (US hours)

Many companies pay lip-service to "Customer Success". At Gearset, we're looking for Customer Support Engineers and Technical Support Engineers to join a company where it's a core part of our DNA. Join us and you’ll get to:

Work in a high-trust environment where you’re given the freedom and support to succeed without internal politics and endless red-tape
Get to work as part of a world-class technical support team, with industry recognised training and a chance to build deep technical knowledge on Salesforce DevOps
Enjoy excellent benefits as part of one of the top 3 tech companies to work for in the UK

The team

The Customer Success team is responsible for creating lasting relationships with our customers and ensuring they see a high level of success with Gearset. We believe in a highly consultative approach, deeply understanding our users and their challenges to deliver exceptional customer support, training and satisfaction. Our approach to support is friendly, personal, and fun, and we prioritize engaging in dynamic conversations without relying on predetermined scripts or automated bots.

The role

As a Customer Support Engineer, you’ll be responsible for ensuring everyone who interacts with Gearset receives world-class customer support. This is a very hands-on, technical role, that is much broader than a typical ticket-based technical support position. You’ll have a high level of independence to manage and service our customers’ needs, supporting our long term growth and success. If you’re driven by understanding how things work, committed to delivering a great customer experience, and able to digest and explain complex topics, this role could be right for you.

As a Customer Support Engineer at Gearset you’ll

Act as the first point of call for users with questions about Gearset, prioritising and responding to their questions through in-app chat, by email, and on technical screen-shares
Diagnose and debug complex issues by developing a deep understanding of Gearset, Salesforce, our users, and their challenges
Provide consultative support and advice to our users on how to best use Gearset and streamline their Salesforce development process, helping them successfully implement best practice and support internal change
Be a customer champion, ensuring their views are represented in the company
Influence and drive product development by working closely with our product, marketing, and sales teams to collect and digest user feedback
Maintain a laser focus on quality, with top-notch written and spoken communication
Contribute to our support documents to ensure they’re clear and accurate, and research and write new content to fill any gaps
After an initial training period on UK hours, you’ll primarily work US East Coast hours (2pm - 10pm UK), helping support our global user base

What we’re looking for

You’ve got at least one year’s experience working in a customer-facing technical support role, ideally for a SaaS product
You have a technical predisposition and the desire to learn, and the ability to convey complex technical topics with simplicity
You’re driven by a genuine desire to deliver the best for the end users
You have demonstrable exceptional writing skills and attention to detail
You have user empathy, and an aptitude for using this to foster user relationships that resonate and engage
You’ve got excellent organisation and prioritisation skills
Having a bachelor's degree or equivalent direct work experience would be a bonus, as would previous experience in technical support roles or problem solving in a technical environment

Salary, benefits, and hours

Salary is £32k - 45k, depending on experience
This is a full time opportunity, working Monday to Friday; in our Cambridge office; hours will primarily be US East Coast (2pm - 10pm UK)
25 days holiday plus bank holidays
Company Pension Plan (matching up to 5%)
Bupa health care
Life Insurance & Critical Illness cover
Flexible working hours
Free lunch in the office
Discounted gym membership, as well as many other wellness benefits
