• First Responder: Assist with urgent issues such as downtime or critical bugs, coordinating with technical teams to resolve quickly.

• Continual Learning: Participate in structured learning assignments to deepen your product, business, and technical expertise.

What We're Looking For

• Ability to manage multiple projects in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.
• Hands-on technical skills: comfortable reading and writing light code (JavaScript, Python, SQL), and working with APIs.

• Analytical mindset with strong problem-solving skills and data-driven decision making.
• Deep understanding of the software development lifecycle and SaaS environments.
