About the role
THE ROLE
As an L1 Support Specialist, you'll be the first point of contact and primary communicator for our enterprise customers. Your role is to understand customer issues, gather diagnostic information, and route tickets to the right technical resources. Since our customers use complex SSO and API integrations, most technical issues (70-80%) will require L2 Engineering support. Your value is in excellent customer communication, initial triage, and managing the ticket lifecycle - not deep technical troubleshooting. You'll be the sole L1 coverage during your shift.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Respond to customer support tickets via email, phone, and portal within SLA (1-2 hour response)
- Understand and document customer issues clearly: what happened, when, which users affected, business impact
- Perform initial triage: categorize tickets by severity (Sev-1 through Sev-4) and type (access, workflow, integration, etc.)
- Resolve basic issues independently: password resets, user access/permissions, simple "how to" questions, template guidance
- Gather diagnostic information for L2 escalation: error messages, screenshots, affected user details, reproduction steps
- Escalate technical issues (SSO, API, integration problems) to L2 Engineering with complete customer context
- Act as customer liaison: communicate ticket status, provide updates, explain timelines, manage expectations
- Follow up on escalated tickets to ensure engineering is working on them and SLAs are being met
- Close resolved tickets with proper documentation and send customer satisfaction surveys
- Search and share relevant knowledge base articles with customers
- Document common issues and create simple KB articles for future reference
- Work with Fortune 500 enterprise customers across healthcare, automotive, and financial services
- Learn about enterprise technologies (SSO, APIs, integrations) through exposure and on-the job training
- Direct access to leadership and engineering teams - your feedback shapes product and support processes
- Industry-leading customer satisfaction (81 NPS) - customers love working with us
