Technical Support Engineer (Bay Area, California)
About The Position
Unstructured is defining the standard for enterprise data transformation in the age of LLMs and generative AI. In just two years, we've raised over $65M from world-class investors, including Menlo Ventures, Bain Capital, Databricks, NVIDIA, Microsoft, and IBM. Our open-source toolkit has been downloaded 61M+ times and is used by 90% of the Fortune 1000. We power production AI workflows across commercial and federal sectors — transforming PDFs, HTML, Word docs, images, emails, and more into AI-ready data pipelines that scale. We're not just building tools, we're building the backbone of generative AI and the infrastructure that unlocks intelligence across industries. As a Technical Support Engineer at Unstructured, you’ll support customers using our SaaS platform by troubleshooting product issues, assisting with onboarding and operational workflows, and helping resolve account and billing-related requests. You’ll work closely with Engineering, Product, Sales, and Solutions teams to deliver a strong customer experience in a fast-moving startup environment. This role is focused on supporting Unstructured’s SaaS offering and customer operations workflows rather than customer-managed infrastructure or self-hosted deployments.
