What You’ll Work On
Scale Customer Operations Infrastructure: Design and improve the workflows, systems, and operational processes that power customer support as Cardless grows in complexity and volume.
Improve Escalation Operations: Own and coordinate resolution of high-priority customer and operational issues (T3) that require cross-functional collaboration across Product, Engineering, Fraud, Compliance, and Operations.
Drive Root Cause Analysis: Analyze escalation trends, support workflows, operational gaps, and customer feedback to identify systemic issues and implement long-term solutions.
Build Scalable Support Systems: Partner with internal teams and BPO partners to improve SOPs, workflows, training materials, QA processes, and operational guidance that enable support teams to operate more effectively and independently.
Surface Product & Operational Insights: Translate customer friction and operational pain points into clear, actionable insights for Product and Engineering teams.
Improve Operational Visibility: Help build reporting, operational dashboards, and feedback loops that provide better visibility into customer experience trends, support performance, and operational health.
Reduce Support Friction at Scale: Leverage automation, tooling, AI workflows, and process improvements to reduce manual work, improve consistency, and create a more scalable customer operations function.
Execute Hands-on Operational Work: Jump directly into customer support operations during periods of high volume, process breakdowns, or emerging issues, including personally working through complex or backlogged customer-facing tickets to unblock operations, identify systemic gaps, and improve how issues are handled going forward.
Example Projects
- Rebuilding a broken escalation path: Diagnose confusion in escalation scenarios, write SOPs, build macros, and validate execution to reduce escalations.
- Closing a knowledge gap: Document resolution paths for recurring edge cases, update knowledge bases, and train frontline teams.
- Digging into a complaint pattern: Analyze CSAT dips, identify common threads, and surface root causes to Product teams.
- Surfacing a product problem: Pull tickets to identify patterns and deliver actionable summaries with context for Product action.
