Strong sense of urgency, ability to prioritize daily workloads balancing SLA metrics, customer impact, and support the team’s goals.

Independently investigate and resolve intermediate to complex customer inquiries, including catalog feed errors, mapping issues, and platform configuration bugs.
Work directly with CSMs, Product, and Engineering to handle case escalations, manage dependencies, and track feature requests.
