Job Description
Your primary responsibility will be to provide first-line technical support to customers via phone, email, and live chat. This will involve troubleshooting software and hardware issues, guiding users through product functionalities, and escalating complex problems to senior support tiers or engineering teams when necessary. You will maintain detailed records of customer interactions and issue resolutions in our CRM system, ensuring a comprehensive history is available.
Proactively identifying common customer pain points and suggesting improvements to product documentation, knowledge base articles, or internal processes will be a key aspect of the role. You will work collaboratively with other departments, including sales and product development, to ensure a seamless customer experience. Maintaining a high level of customer satisfaction, measured by key performance indicators such as response times and resolution rates, is paramount. Staying up-to-date with product updates and new features is essential to provide accurate and effective support.
The ideal candidate will have previous experience in a customer service or technical support role, preferably within the technology sector. A strong understanding of common IT concepts, operating systems (Windows, macOS), and basic networking principles is required. Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to explain technical information clearly to non-technical users, are vital. Patience, empathy, and a customer-centric approach are essential qualities. While this is an on-site position, our client offers a supportive team environment and opportunities for professional development within the company.
