SaaS • Customer Support

Help Scout is a customer support platform that offers a range of tools to empower teams and enhance the customer experience. The platform includes features such as a shared inbox, live chat, self-service knowledge base, and proactive messaging to help teams deliver personalized and efficient support. Help Scout emphasizes the importance of a personal touch in customer service, integrating AI tools in a supportive way rather than allowing AI to dominate the customer experience. It caters to a variety of industries with a focus on maintaining outstanding support that prioritizes both the team and the customer.

📋 Description

• Ship customer-facing AI features across the full stack. Build the experience and what's behind it — LLM-backed flows, retrieval (RAG) and embeddings, and agentic tool-calling — through to a fast, accessible, well-crafted UI. • Treat AI output as something you verify, not assume. Build evaluations, guardrails, and monitoring into AI features so quality is measurable and holds up in production. • Sweat the front-end craft. • Stay close to customers. Join customer calls when more context is needed to design the right solution, participate in a support escalation rotation, and watch session recordings on the features you own. • Own outcomes, not just output. • Co-author the solution. PMs own strategy and sequencing; you bring the judgment and craft for how solutions actually get built. • Own production readiness from the start.

🎯 Requirements

• You're a strong, full-stack-capable engineer with a frontend center of gravity. • You have substantial JavaScript/TypeScript and React experience and real front-end craft, and you take initiative across the stack and ship end-to-end without waiting for someone to own the other half. • You've built real things with LLMs — not just prototypes. • You're comfortable with retrieval (RAG), embeddings, prompt/context engineering, and agentic/tool-calling patterns, and you have a point of view on what makes AI features actually reliable in production. • You hold a high bar for AI quality. • You're genuinely fluent with AI coding tools and treat them as part of your craft. • You're customer-fluent. • You own outcomes. • You take real ownership of the full development lifecycle. • You communicate clearly in writing and in conversation.

🏖️ Benefits

• Competitive salary and an internal, transparent salary formula based on market data • Flexible time off – you choose the holidays and vacations that make sense for you • 12 weeks of fully paid parental leave for all new parents, including adoption and foster care • A home office stipend to help you get set up and productive • A co-working stipend up to $300 a month if you choose to work out of your house • A yearly professional development stipend of $1,800 to help you grow in your craft • If you’re in the U.S. or Canada, we offer top tier health insurance for you and your dependents.
