Customer Support Specialist
About The Position
We're hiring three full-time Support Specialists to help home service businesses get the most out of SignpostAI. SignpostAI is the back office for the hardest-working people in business. We build technology that helps local service businesses (plumbers, HVAC companies, electricians, roofers, and other home service pros) answer every call, capture leads, book jobs, and grow. Our products include AI answering, live receptionist services, and website and marketing tools. Our customers are busy owners who are often out in the field. Our job is to make their lives easier. As a Support Specialist, you'll be the first person our customers reach when something isn't working or they have a question. You'll answer calls, emails, and chats, fix what you can, and get the right people involved when you can't. This role is a great fit for someone who loves helping people, picks up new systems fast, and likes owning a problem until it's solved. You'll work closely with our Customer Success Managers (CSMs) and Builders, and your insights will help shape how we improve our products.
