About this role
AT PYLON, WE'RE BUILDING THE FUTURE OF B2B POST SALES.
Weโre building the all-in-one B2B post-sales support platform powered by conversational data and layered with intelligence to help our customers run their operations in real-time.
Weโre backed by a16z, BCV, General Catalyst, Y Combinator.
Currently more than 1300 companies including Linear, Cognition (makers of Devin), Modal Labs, and Incident.io http://Incident.io run their support and customer success workflows with Pylon. You'll also find us on the Enterprise Tech 30 List https://www.enterprisetech30.com/.
This is a fully in-person role; we do not offer remote or hybrid options.
What you'll do
- Combine talking directly with customers with building solutions
- We're looking for a former SWE/Forward Deployed Engineer who understands what it means to do something once, automate it, and never do it again
- Migrate new customers off their old support system to Pylon
- Within your first week, run customer migration meetings
- Communicate directly with customers and become their main "problem-solver" as they navigate rebuilding their processes and data in Pylon
- Become a deep product expert and guide customers to the right solution. The customer isn't always right and they often don't know what they want. It's up to you to teach them
- Contribute to pre-sales calls as the be-all-end-all for potential solutions
- Be an expert not only in Pylon, but also the systems we migrate from (Zendesk, Intercom, etc.)
- Juggle many customers at once and drive them to completion.
- Iteratively improve the migration process
Requirements
- Located in (or will relocate to) New York OR San Francisco, and excited about working in-person
- Very organized, hard working and fast. You will be juggling many migrations at once.
- Detail-oriented and fast learner. You'll need to become the product expert in many tools quickly.
- An interest in tinkering with the product and suggesting improvements
