About the role Disguise is opening a hub inside Rock Nashville. This role is to be the primary Disguise representative at this location, as part of the Global Support Team.

You will be the first person in that room. This is a support role first, with community and relationships being the core focus.

You will build genuine relationships with the people who run the biggest tours in the world, and you will earn those relationships by being useful and by helping to reaffirm Disguise as the best products and partner best for the live industry.

You will provide frontline software support on Disguise software and related systems, diagnose and repair basic hardware issues, provide in person and remote technical support, and be a certified trainer to raise the skill level of the local community.

This role suits someone who is technically credible and genuinely enjoys people.

You will be based in the Disguise hub at Rock Nashville 4 days per week, with occasional travel to client sites, rehearsal venues and industry events. Flexibility to work occasional odd hours and weekends around rehearsal and load-in schedules.
