We're looking for a "working manager" that's not afraid to get their hands dirty with customers, and with the development, product management, documentation, and support teams. This isn't a role where you sit behind a desk and tell everyone what to do. You must be at the top of your game technically, be able to learn, and help troubleshoot very complex technical issues.

They are the first point of escalation and empowered to resolve most customer issues.

  • Responsible for the management, mentoring, and development of the Technical Support, Implementations and Documentation teams. Team members are based in Carlsbad and in remote offices, in different time zones.
  • Develop discipline and structure around support and implementation processes to ensure quality and consistency of customer experience, as well as improve internal support efficiency.
  • Accountable for operational results of team in terms of performance standards/metrics, customer satisfaction, and expenses.
  • Serves as primary escalation point in resolving customer issues.
  • Together with Product Management, help support the alignment of customer needs with GLDS services and products.
  • Analyzes high level customer problems with respect to technical, business, and operational areas of customer service and has responsibility for recommending GLDS product improvements relating to these issues.
  • Drives the administration and execution of customer support programs, projects, and processes.
  • Help maintain Technical Support as a differentiator that GLDS can leverage to win and retain accounts by ensuring the team delivers responsive, reliable, and professional support.
  • On occasion, represents GLDS at industry events, and trade shows.
  • Once experienced (several years) participate in on-site customer consultations.
  • Serve as the liaison between Technical Support, Product Management and Development to ensure a well-documented, well-trained transition of new features/products for deployment and support. This effort will include internal training of all Tech Services personnel.
  • Responsible for coordinating, assigning, and monitoring all professional services, implementation, and customer project work.

What you'll have

  • At least two years' experience growing, mentoring and investing in a technical support and implementation group for a software company.
  • Bachelor's degree in computer science or technical business-related field.
  • Ability to troubleshoot and coach through very complex, technical issues is a must.
  • Longevity of 5 years or more at previous companies, supporting in depth scope of product and industry knowledge. We're not interested in job hoppers.
  • We'd be thrilled if you had experience as an internet service provider, cable operator, or something within the ISP world.
  • Hands-on experience with back-office billing systems and other BSS platforms preferred but not required.
