Provide technical support for AI audio platform, troubleshoot APIs, integrations, telephony issues, and translate findings for customers and teams in a fast‑paced startup environment.

We are looking for a highly technical Technical Customer Support Specialist who can independently troubleshoot complex issues across APIs, integrations, and our broader AI audio platform. This person should be comfortable working in a fast‑moving startup with minimal hand holding, quickly understanding new features and systems, and adapting to constant change.

The ideal candidate has a strong background in technical support within SaaS or high‑growth tech environments, is deeply comfortable with troubleshooting API‑related issues, and can read and reason about code. They should also have a strong interest in AI and audio, and be able to translate complex technical findings into clear, concise explanations for both customers and internal teams.

• Strong technical troubleshooting background; prioritizes technical depth over generic support skills
• Proven ability to ramp quickly with minimal onboarding and operate effectively in ambiguity
• Thrives in a fast‑paced, changing startup environment with limited process and documentation

• Strong interest in AI; familiarity with LLM concepts (prompting, hallucinations, common failure modes)
• Basic understanding of how AI models are used in production workflows
• Interest or experience in audio technology or media processing is a plus
• Bonus: prior use of AI audio tools

• Highly autonomous: manages own workload, priorities, and learning without close supervision
• Fast learner: picks up new concepts, tools, and features quickly with limited context or training
• Adaptable: comfortable when features ship/break without advance notice; adjusts workflows on the fly
• Proactive: identifies patterns, raises product issues, and improves internal docs/knowledge base

• Clear communicator (especially in writing): can turn complex technical issues into straightforward explanations
• Detail‑oriented: careful in analysis, documentation, and customer‑facing responses
• Collaborative: works well with product/engineering and a distributed, international team
• Driven and accountable: maintains a high bar for quality and follows through end‑to‑end on issues
