Join us, and be part of a team that is shaping the future of customer conversation management!\nOur Culture\nAt respond.io, we move fast, work smart, and always keep our customers at the heart of what we do. Here’s what we stand for:\nSolve Customer Problems: Every effort must solve real customer pain points. No guesswork-just real feedback and clear value!\nThe 80/20 Rule: We focus on 20% of actions that create 80% of the value. Simple is powerful-it gets us moving fast.\n100% Alignment, 80% Accuracy: We aim 100% team alignment and 80% accuracy. Perfect plans can wait-clear goals come first.\nBe Direct: We give honest feedback, and tackle problems head-on. Clarity moves us forward!\nOwn It and Support Each Other: We step up, help out, and drive outcomes-together.\nBuild Human Connections: Work is better when we trust, care, and celebrate wins together. We’re a team\nAbout the Role & Team\nOur Support department is scaling rapidly as our customer base grows. Our Support Operations function is organized into two core functions: Data Analytics, Systems & Automations, which owns the operational engine (tooling, automations, AI infrastructure, and reporting), and Quality & Enablement, which owns the knowledge, quality standards, and training behind every customer conversation.\nAs a Senior Support Operations Specialist, you will join Data Analytics, Systems & Automations as a senior individual contributor. Free from frontline tickets, you will serve as the system architect and technical owner for our operational infrastructure-engineering custom integrations, establishing trusted data pipelines, optimizing our tool stack, and designing automated workflows that elevate the customer experience. Reporting directly to the Support Ops Manager, you will operate with high autonomy: defining, building, and scaling system capabilities from the ground up rather than executing pre-existing playbooks.\nIf you are an autonomous builder and strategic problem solver who thrives on turning ambiguous operational challenges into scalable systems, automations, and trusted reporting, this role is for you.\nKey Responsibilities\nSupport Quality Infrastructure & Operational Governance\nSet and maintain support quality standards: Regularly review workflows, rubrics, and quality-scoring systems to ensure they remain useful, accurate, and aligned with reality.\nTurn quality data into actionable insights: Analyze evaluation trends to help team leads and enablement address knowledge gaps and improve performance.\nTooling, Automation & System Health\n Build and maintain automations & integrations: Own the workflows that Support Operations relies on (e.g., ticketing integrations, webhooks, routing logic) and keep the tech stack healthy.\nBridge cross-functional systems: Partner with External Teams and Departments to automate handoffs and streamline chatting experience and resolution paths for recurring issues.\nReporting Infrastructure & Data Integrity\nBuild and maintain reporting systems: Architect the dashboards and data models that track departmental and business performance metrics.\nGuarantee data integrity: Ensure underlying ticket and operational data is 100% accurate so leadership can make trusted decisions.\nRequired Qualifications\n5+ years of professional experience, including 3+ years in B2B SaaS Support Operations (preferably startup) and 2+ years in customer-facing support or Support QA.\nHands-on experience building QA systems, conversatio0n grading rubrics, calibration models, and evaluation frameworks for support teams.\nProven track record connecting support platforms to engineering tools (Linear) via webhooks, APIs, or iPaaS tools (n8n, Zapier, Make).\nDemonstrated hands on experience deploying automated triage, chatbots, AI-driven deflection tools, or using AI coding agents (e.g., Claude Code) to execute projects.\nProven ability to monitor, troubleshoot, and maintain the reliability of internal tools and integrations before failures cascade.\nStrong data analysis skills with experience building and maintaining reporting pipelines and trusted dashboards (e.g., Holistics).\nDemonstrated ability to take ambiguous, high-level goals from leadership and design the underlying systems, processes, and metrics to achieve them with minimal supervision.\nProven project and stakeholder management skills-able to own initiatives end-to-end, communicate clearly with leadership, and align cross-functional teams with excellent written and verbal communication skills.\n Here's what's in for you\nYou will become part of an amazing culture with smart, collaborative teammates who actually care about each other's growth and success.\nYou will grow more here than you would anywhere else, that is a promise.\nVirtual events like talent shows, Among Us nights, and online game sessions to keep the fun going, no matter where you are!\nWe offer a highly competitive compensation package.\nFlexible working environment and working hours that fit your lifestyle, wherever you're based.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5524,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Flexible
