Skydio is the leading US drone manufacturer and world leader in autonomous flight, the key technology for the future of drones and aerial transportation. The Skydio team combines deep expertise in artificial intelligence, best-in-class hardware and software product development, and operational excellence to empower a broader, more diverse audience of drone users - from action sports enthusiasts to first responders.

About the team: 

Our support team provides best-in-class service and support to our growing customer base while meeting or exceeding our service level agreements defined by our business requirements. We’re highly focused on customer retention and loyalty, and we work hard to build systems and structures to reduce costs related to process inefficiencies.

About the role: 

Skydio is looking for a highly motivated technical individual who is excited about leading a top-tier product support experience. You will work with the Director of Support to build and scale a support engineering team that will take ownership of the product support escalation and bug reporting workflows (in tight alignment with our engineering and product teams). You will be responsible for understanding and aggregating the voice of the customer as we prioritize issues into future releases. In leading this effort, you will act as a liaison between the CS, Product, and Engineering teams, expediting communication, providing actionable information to the executive team and ensuring the right stakeholders are involved. You will advise all groups on best practices and access all resources necessary to achieve the best outcome for our customers and business, focusing on the significance of SLAs and root cause analysis.

How you’ll make an impact:

  • Work closely with internal teams to become an expert on Skydio’s products, processes, specifications, and product roadmap.
  • Build support processes that define and accelerate our escalation and debugging workflows.
  • Reduce the number of technical escalations into engineering groups by developing rock-solid triage and resolution techniques.
  • Provide our tiered support structure with technical analysis and troubleshooting structure that reduces our response times and meets or exceeds our SLAs.
  • Work directly with product teams to communicate common break/fix points and prioritize and understand development timelines.
  • Provide reporting and dashboards on trending issues and bugs and escalate to our product team to solve them
  • Bridge any gaps between the data and learnings coming from our support and engineering teams. Effectively, you are the liaison between those two worlds.

What would make you a good fit: 

  • You are adept at technical troubleshooting, have strong problem-solving skills, and are familiar with triage and escalation workflows.
  • You’re an assertive self-starter with excellent interpersonal and written communication skills.
  • You have 2-5 years of engineering, SME, or technical account management experience (previous experience in an enterprise capacity is preferred).
  • You have experience building a support engineering team from the ground up.
  • You have experience working with Atlassian Jira, Salesforce, and Zendesk. Additional experience with APIs, Tableau, SQL, or GraphQL is a plus.
  • Systems-level experience with Netsuite, Notion, and Shopify is preferred.
  • Some experience in Linux operating systems is preferred.
  • You have experience working cross-functionally across technical, ops, and GTM teams.
