About the role

We are looking for a Customer Success Associate to join our growing team. As a Customer Success Associate, you will be critical to executing our mission of enabling every family to thrive by enabling our customers and their families to get the maximum benefit from our apps.

You’ll work directly with customers via Zendesk and Jira to resolve any issues that may arise for our customers.

As one of the first people that our customers will interact with, you’ll be creating a great experience for our customers and ensuring that their queries are resolved effectively and efficiently.

This is a fully remote, 12-month, part-time (15 hours per week), 1099 contract position. You'll work your 15 hours per week spread across each weekday (Monday - Friday) with flexibility on when you work each day.

  • Use internal portals and admin tools to update account settings, correct user information, and resolve billing-related issues
  • Clearly explain app functionality, limitations, and workarounds in a way that is easy for non-technical users to understand
  • Identify when an issue cannot be resolved immediately and escalate appropriately, providing clear documentation and context to the next team
  • Follow up with customers on escalated issues to ensure resolution and maintain a positive experience
  • Stay informed on known bugs, outages, and product changes to provide accurate and consistent responses
  • Handle sensitive or frustrated customer interactions with patience, professionalism, and care

  • Convert recurring questions into clear, concise FAQ or Help Center articles
  • Assist customers participating in betas by answering questions, collecting issue reports, and relaying feedback
  • Adhere to response time and quality standards while managing multiple conversations efficiently
  • Document customer interactions accurately to ensure continuity and context for future support

Requirements

  • Excellent written communication with perfect grammar
  • Efficient while being empathetic
  • Strong problem-solving skills
  • Comfortable with using technology, apps, and social media
  • 1+ years of customer support experience
  • Experience with ticketing software, such as Zendesk and JIRA
