Intercom is the AI Customer Service company on a mission to help businesses provide incredible customer experiences.
Our AI agent Fin, the most advanced customer service AI agent on the market, lets businesses deliver always-on, impeccable customer service and ultimately transform their customer experiences for the better. Fin can also be combined with our Helpdesk to become a complete solution called the Intercom Customer Service Suite, which provides AI enhanced support for the more complex or high touch queries that require a human agent.
Founded in 2011 and trusted by nearly 30,000 global businesses, Intercom is setting the new standard for customer service. Driven by our core values, we push boundaries, build with speed and intensity, and consistently deliver incredible value to our customers.
You will be the Engineering leader for our Monetisation, Growth, and Website platforms - three critical areas that fuel Intercom’s business model and our customer acquisition engine. This is an opportunity to partner closely with Product, Finance, Marketing, and Sales leadership to shape how we package, sell, and deliver our product to customers around the world.
You will lead teams across billing, pricing and packaging, quoting, and order management systems; growth and self-serve experiences; and our website platform, which is our most lucrative acquisition channel. This is a highly strategic leadership role where you will influence both how customers buy and experience Intercom, and how we grow as a business.
You’ll work with a strong set of cross-functional partners, and you’ll be expected to define and execute on a multi-year vision that elevates Intercom’s ability to serve both our self-serve and enterprise customers at scale.
