Job Description

Associate Customer Support Specialist

Miter

• Work the general support queue, resolving Tier 1 cases across payroll, taxes, HR, and benefits for Miter's customer base. • Ramp quickly on Miter's product, ticketing tools, and knowledge base — shadowing Specialists early, then resolving tickets independently within weeks. • Use troubleshooting frameworks and internal resources to diagnose issues, ask the right clarifying questions, and deliver clear, empathetic responses. • Stay with the ticket: follow up proactively, loop in Specialists when needed, and make sure nothing falls through the cracks. • Develop a product specialization over time, contributing to team SLAs and handling 60–70% of assigned tickets without escalation by month two.

Job Requirements

  • 0–2 years in a customer-facing role (support, success, retail, hospitality, or similar) — non-traditional backgrounds welcome if the communication and learning bar is met.
  • Track record of ramping quickly on a complex product or domain — whether through school, a prior job, or otherwise.
  • Comfortable in a fast-paced, ticket- or queue-driven environment; able to manage multiple open cases without dropping the ball.
  • Proficient navigating modern SaaS tools; able to learn a new product deeply within weeks, not months.
  • Comfortable using a help desk / ticketing system (Pylon, Zendesk, Intercom, Front, or similar).
  • Can follow a troubleshooting framework and use a knowledge base to diagnose issues independently.
  • Coachable: takes feedback well and asks for help before getting stuck.
  • High ownership: stays with the ticket, follows up proactively, doesn't let things drop.
  • Empathetic and patient with frustrated customers, including those under real time pressure.
  • Curious about the construction industry and the operational reality of our customers.

Benefits

  • Competitive Compensation: We offer competitive (well above “market”) salary, commission, and equity packages.
  • Medical Insurance: Comprehensive medical, dental, FSA, vision plans to suit you and your family’s needs.
  • 401(k) Retirement Plan: Company-matched contributions to help you plan for your future.
  • Flexible PTO: Take the time you need to recharge and be your best self.
  • Parental Leave: Generous 16-week paid leave for all parents, including adoptive and foster parents.
  • Learning & Development: We offer every employee an annual educational allowance to explore external professional development.
  • Office Extras: Snacks, coffee, lunch, and commuter benefits for in-office Mitosaurs.
  • Community: Company-wide and team-specific off-sites per year.
