Customer Support Specialist – Tier 1
Formstack improves people’s lives with practical solutions to their everyday work. We are looking for the next Stacker to help us accomplish this mission.
Formstack is a remote-first company with team members who live and work across the U.S., Canada, and the globe. We offer more than just a job; we provide a community where you can learn, grow, and thrive your way. Join a dynamic and diverse team that values relationships as much as results. Come build what matters with Formstack.
 James Allen, Director of Customer Support at Formstack, is looking to hire someone who will complement and strengthen the team.
Who You Are:
 • You are able to explain and help others understand the problem and solution.
 • You’re an exceptional communicator who can gracefully break down, solve, and explain even the most complex problems.
 • You are always curious to learn more – you might not know all of the answers, but you’re eager to find them.
 • You are well-versed in software and not fearful of new technology, a hard worker who gets things done, and you have the ability to switch gears quickly, and adjust your priorities and focus appropriately.
What You’ll Do:
The Customer Support Specialist will be among the first line of communication for our current, future, and even previous customers. This person will predominantly be handling new support tickets via email, as well as escalated tickets from Tier 1. There will also be days where the CSS will handle phone consult requests(after passing training). In between tickets, this person may also be asked to provide assistance to our internal customers via the internal-support Slack channel, case follow-up, or create/update collateral for new product releases.
As a team, we actively communicate customer needs within the organization to reduce friction points for customers. Support Specialists will learn and develop skills to collaborate cross-functionally in the interest of customer advocacy and proactive support. This role will be essential in helping our company keep customer needs front and center.
