Fountain is the market leader in high volume hiring with solutions that enable customers to get ahead of their hiring goals. Fountain’s all-in-one software allows companies to find and hire the right candidates faster. Our automated and customizable platform provides a seamless applicant experience while ensuring organizations have pipelines full of hourly talent who are ready to work.

Hundreds of customers, including Stitch Fix, GoPuff, Fetch, and sweetgreen, use Fountain to hire over 3 million workers annually in more than 75 countries.

In 2022, we closed $185M in our Series C, led by Softbank and B Capital, which 4.5Xed our valuation. Join our growing team of collaborative, compassionate, and unconventional Fountaineers as we empower our customers to exceed their hiring goals and open opportunities for the hourly workforce.

As a Product Support Specialist, you will be the voice and face of the company and the first point of contact for our customers, including some of the biggest brands in the world. You’ll have the opportunity to support a wide variety of features and integrations, resolve issues, drive adoption, and be the voice of the customer with internal teams. Our team’s mission is to build, deepen and grow relationships with our customers.

Successful candidates will be passionate about solving problems and helping customers; thrive in cultivating genuine relationships; love tinkering and figuring out how things work; be able to spot problems and identify patterns; demonstrate a can-do attitude and a sense of ownership; and handle ambiguity well.

Fountain is a remote-first employer and candidates anywhere in the continental United States are eligible.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Fielding customer requests via email tickets and live chat
  • Troubleshooting customer issues, identify root causes, and provide solution options
  • Working closely with Tier 2 Technical Support team to troubleshoot, share ideas, keep each other up to date, and brainstorm workarounds
  • Opening tickets with Tier 2 Technical Support and Engineering teams as needed
  • Serving as an advocate for our customers
  • Maintaining internal documentation

What you should bring:

  • Experience in a Customer Service or Customer facing role
  • Proven ability to learn and retain information
  • Ability to describe technical issues to a non-technical audience using common language
  • Demonstrated ability to work independently with limited guidance
  • Willingness to occasionally work hours outside of normal business hours

Nice to have:

  • Experience with Zendesk and/or Jira
  • Experience working in SaaS tech/customer support
  • Experience working with engineers, executives, and internal stakeholders to solve problems

Even if you do not meet all the requirements above, we still encourage you to apply for this position. While we try to be thorough with our prerequisites, not everything about you as a candidate can be condensed into a list of bullet points. What do you have to lose?
