You'll be a strategic problem solver and become a subject matter expert responsible for ensuring that multiple internal groups - including support, product, engineering and sales operations - are working together seamlessly to provide an exceptional experience for our merchants when something goes wrong.

You're excited about this opportunity because you will...

  • Investigate and resolve complex technical troubleshooting cases to diagnose and remediate failure points.
  • Work closely with Account Owners and sales stakeholders to provide resolutions for escalated issues and answer process, functionality and workflow-related inquiries.
  • Develop a deep expertise in how DoorDash's Point of Sale processes, systems, and resources work, and how to diagnose and resolve an issue.
  • Create, dig into and use data and insights to identify opportunities to improve speed, quality, efficiency, effectiveness and merchant experience across POS issue types and providers.
  • Develop strong relationships and grow communication pathways with cross-functional company leaders to continue evangelizing and building confidence in POS Support operations.
  • Work with the Partner Operations and Product teams to problem solve, scope improvements and build solutions that address quality issues upstream
  • Identify weaknesses, gaps and bottlenecks in our operational processes so we can deliver high quality support to all portions of our business.

We're excited about you because...

  • You love helping people! You want to do right by our merchants to provide a scalable, world-class merchant experience.
  • You enjoy working methodically through a problem step-by-step to narrow down possible solutions.
  • You work independently, you're a reliable teammate, and you're trustworthy. You always either know what your next steps are and how to get there, or who to ask if you need help.
  • You are excited by the unfamiliar and new. You are comfortable with building the plane as it's flying and have a bias for action.
  • You thrive in a fast-paced, always changing environment. You absorb new information quickly and execute at a high level because you effectively manage your time and proactively seek to understand.
  • You easily distill large amounts of complex information into simple takeaways and bullet points for inclusion in workflow tools, training collateral and help content.
  • You have high emotional intelligence and great communication skills - you communicate with merchants, third party vendors and cross-functional partners efficiently, professionally and confidently. You know how to close the loop and you don't leave anyone hanging.
  • You have experience in de-escalation tactics, call management, and delight in turning an upset customer into a vocal brand promoter.
  • 4+ years of work experience
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent amount of work experience
  • Previous technical support experience (implementation of POS systems and coordinating support workflows with 3rd party Providers)

Bonus points for...

  • Ability to write and edit simple SQL queries
  • You are adept at exuding empathy and bringing distressed customers along with you, while you analyze and solve complex technical issues.
  • Success in team environments with demonstrating shared responsibility for solving casework in a queue system with SLA goals.
