Our mission is to enable the world ship the best products. That starts with creating a place where everyone can do their best work. Whether you're building on our platform, supporting our customers, or shaping our story : You can just ship things.

About the Role :

We are seeking to hire a Manager for our Customer Support Engineering (CSE) team in order to support the continued growth of the company. This role inherits an existing set of well documented processes, policies, and expectations, although there is considerable scope and expectation to re-evaluate these, and help take the CSE team to new heights by doing so. Experience working cross-functionally and aligning stakeholders at all levels of the business is therefore essential.

You will be given the opportunity to build out the team further where required and so hiring and planning experience is required - you would value building a high performing team that knows the balance between quality and quantity. You will focus on scaling and efficiency, identifying and implementing solutions that reduce the need for customers to contact support while empowering the team with the right tooling and process to dig deep quicker. You will understand the importance of growing a support team in such a way that it can maintain an exceptional customer experience while not scaling linearly with incoming cases - ambitious and bold ideas are strongly encouraged.

This role is fast paced and while regular office hours will suffice most of the time, you must be prepared for flexibility during busier times or when unexpected issues arise, as such, we utilize out of hours paging where required. You will have ample support from leadership at all times, alongside other CSE managers in alternate timezones. Ultimately, the desire to deliver exceptional customer experiences at scale is what will motivate you and help you and your team achieve success through a variety of means that you will have direct influence over.

What You Will Do :

• Ensuring the delivery of an exceptional customer experience at scale.
• Setting measurable goals to evaluate and consistently improve CSE team performance.
• Handling escalated cases that arrive ad-hoc through various channels.
• Working with the Product organization to provide feedback and implement solutions.
• Engaging stakeholders at all levels of the business to drive cross-functional improvements.
• Helping CSE’s with day to day performance, career planning, and growth.
• Identifying opportunities for tooling to improve efficiency and quality of work.
• Overseeing the communication of incidents to customers.
• Leading by example and periodically demonstrate CSE best practices in the role.
• Recruiting exceptional people that understand and are driven greatly by Vercel’s mission.
• Recognizing trends, issue patterns, and proactively taking action to prevent further difficulty for customers.
