About the role:

The Sr. Customer Support Associate will play a critical role in supporting Laurel’s growing user base during peak US business hours. This person will deliver a superior experience to our customers by helping them work through technical issues, learn how to use our product, and escalate their feedback to our internal team. Beyond the queue, this person will contribute to strategic initiatives that improve the overall support experience — from documentation and process improvements to AI agent optimization. We’re looking for someone who takes ownership, follows through, and is always looking for ways to make things better for customers and teammates alike.

What you will do:

• Becoming an expert on the Laurel product.

• Responding to and resolving inbound customer support inquiries in a timely, professional, and authoritative manner during core US business hours (9am–6pm ET). This includes:

  • Doing first-line technical troubleshooting and problem-solving to resolve customer issues.

  • Thoroughly documenting technical problems that users are encountering, and escalating them internally as needed.

  • Educating customers about our product.

• Independently staying up-to-date on product changes.

• Thoroughly understanding customers’ needs and preferences, and articulating these internally on an as-needed basis.

• Owning strategic projects in Customer Support, including Help Center articles, internal documentation, and support operations initiatives.

• Identifying patterns across customer conversations and proactively surfacing improvements to documentation, processes, or the product.

• Collaborating cross-functionally with Customer Success, Product, and Engineering to drive resolution of recurring customer issues.

You will be a great fit if you have:

• Are able to work 9am–6pm Eastern Time.

• Are based in the United States, preferably on the East Coast.

• Have 3+ years of experience providing customer support in a SaaS or software environment.

• Have superior written communication skills – you are an excellent “explainer.”

• Have superior problem-solving skills and can think systematically about how software works.

• Have a proven track record of driving high customer satisfaction and following through on issues until they’re fully resolved.

• Have a proven track record of working efficiently and setting appropriate priorities independently in a high-volume environment.

• Have demonstrated success driving results outside of the queue – you write excellent documentation, have experience improving support operations, and take initiative on projects that raise the bar for the team.

• Have a proven track record of building strong working relationships with colleagues in a remote, distributed environment.

• Are comfortable in a low-context, fast-moving environment.

• Are a self-starter who requires minimal supervision.
