Customer Support Specialist

We’re looking for a Customer Support Specialist to join our growing Customer Operations and Support team.

This is a frontline customer support role first and foremost. Your primary responsibility will be helping Way’s B2B customers through email and chat in Intercom-answering questions, troubleshooting issues, resolving problems, and making sure customers can successfully use our platform.

You’ll also play an important role in helping us build the systems behind that support. You’ll help manage and improve our AI-powered support tools, strengthen our Help Center and internal documentation, improve workflows and processes, and identify recurring customer issues that can be solved at their source.

This is a unique opportunity to be a founding member of the new Operations and Support department at Way. That means you’ll have meaningful ownership, close exposure to the business, and the opportunity to make a visible impact on both the customer experience and how our support organization operates.

We’re looking for someone who is proactive, self-directed, curious, and resourceful. When the queue is quiet, you’ll be expected to find ways to make the team better. When you encounter a recurring customer question, an unclear process, a gap in our documentation, or an inefficient workflow, you’ll be expected to identify the opportunity and help improve it.

As you build expertise in the Way platform, you’ll increasingly be able to diagnose and resolve more complex product, configuration, integration, and technical issues independently, while knowing when and how to involve Product or Engineering.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys both solving customer problems and improving the systems behind those problems -and who wants to help build a scalable support function as the company grows.

OWN THE CUSTOMER SUPPORT EXPERIENCE

• Respond to customer questions and support requests through email and chat in Intercom.
• Investigate, troubleshoot, and resolve product, configuration, integration, and account issues.
• Clearly communicate solutions, follow up on open issues, and own conversations through resolution.
• Escalate issues to Product or Engineering with the relevant context and troubleshooting completed.

MANAGE AND IMPROVE AI SUPPORT

• Manage, monitor, and continuously improve Way’s AI-powered support agents, including Fin in Intercom.
• Review AI conversations and improve answer quality, accuracy, tone, resolution, and escalation handling.
• Maintain the knowledge, instructions, content, and workflows that enable AI agents to support customers effectively.
• Identify gaps between AI and human support and turn them into improvements to documentation, training, processes, and handoffs.
• Stay current on Intercom and Fin capabilities and help ensure our AI support tools are configured effectively.

BUILD THE SUPPORT SYSTEM

• Identify recurring customer questions, friction points, and opportunities to improve the support experience.
• Create and maintain SOPs, troubleshooting guides, Help Center content, FAQs, and customer-facing educational resources.
• Improve Intercom workflows, automations, routing, and other support processes.
• Turn recurring support issues into actionable feedback for Product and Engineering.
• Partner with the Manager, Customer Operations and Support to improve support quality, consistency, efficiency, and scalability.

DEVELOP PRODUCT AND TECHNICAL EXPERTISE

• Become highly knowledgeable about the Way platform and how customers use it.
• Build the ability to independently troubleshoot increasingly complex product, integration, configuration, and technical issues.
• Use available tools, documentation, and AI-assisted resources to research and resolve issues efficiently.
• Work with Product and Engineering to improve technical documentation and reduce unnecessary escalations.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• Experience in customer support, technical support, customer operations, or a similar customer-facing role.
• Excellent written communication and the ability to explain complex concepts clearly and simply.
• Strong problem-solving skills and a methodical approach to troubleshooting.
• Comfort learning software products and technical concepts.
• Strong attention to detail and a high degree of ownership.
• Organized and able to independently manage an inbound support queue.
• Proactive, curious, resourceful, and comfortable finding ways to improve things without being told what to do.
• Comfortable working in a small, evolving team where priorities and processes may change.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

• Customers receive timely, thoughtful, and effective support.
• You independently resolve an increasing range of customer issues.
• Recurring problems are reduced through better documentation, education, AI, and processes.
• Our support systems, workflows, and resources continuously improve.
• You become a trusted, knowledgeable operator who owns your work and helps make the overall support function more efficient.
