  • Develop and implement streamlined technical support processes and protocols, ensuring consistency and efficiency in service delivery
  • Continuously analyze and assess technical support metrics to identify areas for improvement and implement effective solutions to enhance the quality and efficiency of our support services
  • Collaborate with other departments, including product management and customer success, to incorporate customer feedback into product development and refinement processes
  • Work closely with the engineering department to resolve customer escalations and prevent such in the future
  • Oversee day-to-day technical support operations, handle customer escalations, and ensure timely resolution of support tickets
  • Act as the voice of the customer and actively foster a strong sense of community within the support team
  • Drive the strategic planning and implementation of a vibrant and engaging support community for Velocity's customers, fostering a collaborative space where users can share knowledge, exchange best practices, and seek assistance from peers and experts alike

  • Demonstrate adept problem-solving and analytical aptitude
  • Familiarity with customer support tools such as Salesforce, Zendesk, or comparable platforms

Nice to have but not a must:

  • Experience working in a containerized environment in development (Docker), and preferably with K8S
  • Experience in software development and development processes
