People Data Labs (PDL) is the provider of people and company data. We do the heavy lifting of data collection and standardization so our customers can focus on building and scaling innovative, compliant data solutions. Our sole focus is on building the best data available by integrating thousands of compliantly sourced datasets into a single, developer-friendly source of truth. Leading companies across the world use PDL’s workforce data to enrich recruiting platforms, power AI models, create custom audiences, and more.
For this role, we’re looking for someone excited to help solve customer problems, both big and small, providing support through our various channels (email, Slack, and Zoom). A typical day might consist of working tickets in Zendesk, jumping on a call to support a customer, helping out teammates, and participating in the general mix of chaos, fun, and execution that defines PDL.
This role is the first of its kind at PDL, and an ideal candidate will be comfortable “building the plane while they’re flying it.” This role is also not for someone with only general IT support experience. Demonstrable customer-facing experience supporting a data product, a technical product, or one with a significant API component will be key for any candidate to be successful from day one.
Our Technical Services team delivers exceptional experiences to our customers because they truly are the best in the biz. If you love data, get energized working with customers, and aren’t afraid to tell your teammates and customers alike when they aren’t on the right track, this might just be the role for you.
The Opportunity
Act as first line support for customer issues and questions, escalating to our Solutions Engineers when appropriate
Own our customer support tools, docs, and processes, finding new ways to make your and your teammates' jobs easier with automation and AI
Roles & Responsibilities
Provide end-to-end support for PDL’s “self-service” customers, often consisting of simple inquiries, billing questions, and account administration
Act as first line triage and support for PDL’s “Enterprise” customers, often consisting of support with SQL queries, API troubleshooting, and investigating data issues
Own our Zendesk instance and help us find new, innovative ways to provide faster support
Provide feedback to our Product team to ensure issues flagged by customers end up on their radar
Ensure our support documentation stays up to date, helping our customers solve issues independently as often as possible
Required Skills & Experience
2-3 years of customer-facing technical support experience
Working knowledge of SQL, with the ability to read and write queries, and support customer troubleshooting
Experience managing most daily work in Zendesk (or a similar ticketing system), using judgment to determine what your priorities each day should be
A bias for speed, and awareness that fast support resolution is critical to our customers’ success
This role has the potential to expand over time as you become more experienced supporting customers using data.
Nice to haves
A desire to further your technical knowledge and skills
New technical skills you may learn on the job
Python (or other scripting languages)
Technologies like Redshift, Azure, MongoDB, etc.
Writing complex queries
Logfile exploration tooling (i.e. Kibana, Periscope, Graylog, etc.)
All things data!
