Your Work:

Feathr’s SaaS platform is a cornerstone of our commitment to delivering exceptional digital marketing solutions to nonprofits. As a Senior Product Support Engineer, you'll be instrumental in maintaining and enhancing the technical components that drive value for our diverse client base. Working closely with a small team of engineers under the guidance of a Senior Director of Product, you'll tackle backend and fullstack technical challenges to ensure the seamless operation of our platform.

In this role, you'll collaborate with internal and external stakeholders to investigate and design technical solutions, working alongside your engineering colleagues to implement and deploy these solutions in production. Your responsibilities will include monitoring changes in production, addressing issues as they arise, and providing support to both our Support and Engineering Teams.

We're seeking a candidate who not only possesses a strong technical acumen but also excels in communicating technical concepts to a non-technical audience. You'll need to effectively investigate technical problems and convey them clearly to others, serving as the go-to resource for resolving technical challenges. This role demands both immediate triage and long-term solution implementation, requiring creativity and adaptability to meet evolving needs.

Your Qualities:

• You care about and empathize with customer needs and the role Support plays in making a customer-centric team successful.

• You are patient and understanding and take the time to review customer communications.

• You are an articulate communicator, proficient in both verbal and written communication, and enjoy crafting clear and concise messages on technical topics to non-technical customers.

• Comfortable working with external customers over the phone. Though it isn’t a typical activity, this role may have to communicate with customers for clarification and further direction.

• Comfortable adapting to quickly changing conditions. You might be working on one project but need to context switch to another unexpectedly in the case of a critical outage.

• A thorough problem-solver and investigator that can take small bits of information of a complex problem and uncover the root cause through a deep understanding of Feathr’s product.
