📋 Description

• Lead and develop a team of Support Engineers focused on technical depth, problem-solving, and customer impact. • Foster a culture of ownership, urgency, and high standards where problems are driven to resolution quickly and thoughtfully. • Mentor team members on technical skills including log analysis, database querying, systems architecture, and integration troubleshooting. • Foster a collaborative environment where knowledge-sharing and experimentation are encouraged. • Help define the career path and responsibilities of Support Engineers at Ashby. • Recruit and grow talent with strong technical foundations in reading and understanding code, collaborating on bug reproduction, and working effectively with Engineering teams. • Build scalable, repeatable processes for diagnosing and resolving complex issues related to integrations, APIs, analytics, and product performance. • Set standards for how the team escalates to Engineering, triages bugs, identifies patterns, and partners on long-term solutions. • Create internal tools and workflows that help the team operate with efficiency and consistency. • Balance operational needs with hands-on technical work, staying close by jumping into issues, exploring logs, or conducting hands-on testing when needed to support the team. • Continuously evaluate where time is being spent and ruthlessly prioritize work that drives the most impact for customers and the business. • Collaborate closely with Engineering to shape how technical escalations are managed and how customer insights are tracked and actioned. • Work with Product to provide feedback loops from Support to improve usability and prevent repeat issues.
