About Wispr

Wispr Flow is making it as effortless to interact with your devices as talking to a close friend. Voice is the most natural, powerful way to communicate — and we’re building the interfaces to make that a reality.

Today, Wispr Flow is the first voice dictation platform people use more than their keyboards — because it understands you perfectly on the first try. It’s context-aware, personalized, and works anywhere you can type, on desktop or phone.

Dictation is just our first act. We’re building the interaction layer for your computer — a system that’s capable, understands you, and earns your trust. It will start by writing for you, then move to taking actions, and ultimately anticipate your needs before you ask.

We’re a team of AI researchers, designers, growth experts, and engineers rethinking human-computer interaction from the ground up. We value high-agency teammates who communicate openly, obsess over users, and sweat the details. We thrive on spirited debate, truth-seeking, and real-world impact.

This year, we've grown our revenue 50% month-over-month and with our latest $30M Series A, this is just the beginning.

About this role:

As we continue to build traction in the market, our customers need us even more. We’re building out the customer support team!

We’re looking for someone with the focus of an air traffic controller and the speed and precision of a Formula 1 pit crew. You’ll be the first line of defense for all customer support tickets — triaging, resolving, and escalating with flawless execution. This is high-volume, high-urgency work where operational discipline is everything.

You’ll be working the ticket queue like a mission-critical control tower: constantly scanning, prioritizing, and making rapid decisions. When it’s your turn on the tools, you’ll execute each step with pit crew precision — no wasted motion, no sloppy handoffs, no missed details. Your sharp communication and problem-solving skills will not only put customers instantly at ease, they’ll also surface insights that shape our product roadmap and influence what we build next.

Our values
  • High agency: Take initiative to solve problems that you see. We make decisions quickly, and disagree and commit to move forward as a team.

  • Open communication: Lean into debate, discussion, and uncomfortable conversations. We maintain integrity and say the things that are hard to say because we trust one another and assume other people have good intentions.

  • User obsessed: Design technology that makes people's experience more natural and seamless. We really care about building an exceptional user experience.

  • Detail-focused: Exceptional outcomes come from exceptional attention to detail - down to every interaction and every pixel.

What you'll do
  • Own and work the ticket queue with speed, accuracy, and a zero-backlog mindset.

  • Triage incoming issues, prioritize effectively, and apply the right playbook or escalation path (and if there isn't one yet, build it!).

  • Troubleshoot and resolve customer problems directly whenever possible; escalate crisply when needed.

  • Maintain impeccable documentation so every handoff is instant and effortless for the next tier.

  • Spot recurring issues and feed insights directly into our product and process improvement loops.

  • Keep calm, clear, empathetic, and professional in every customer-facing and internal interaction — even in a fast, dynamic flow of work.

A bit about us:
  • We are a collection of international and multicultural nerds who love solving problems and passionately geek out to all kinds of topics.

  • We take our work, but not ourselves, seriously. We care deeply about our mission, we do our best to pursue excellence in our work, and we find a healthy balance between hustle and quality. And we each have active fitness and social hobbies outside of work.

  • We get shit done. We are constantly looking for ways to do our work well and more efficiently, communicating and making micro and macro improvements. We aim to uplevel our products and services to ensure we're meeting and exceeding the expectations of our brilliant customers.

A bit about you:
  • You have a fierce sense of intellectual curiosity and are audacious in your quest to diagnose and solve tough problems. You know when to solve things on your own and when to ask for help.

  • You have a Sherlock Holmes passion for finding complicated unsolved problems and uncovering a new solution.

  • You get an adrenaline rush from efficiently solving as many support tickets as you can.

  • You balance empathy with resilience and resolve: You know how to talk to customers in ways that proactively guide them to the right answer while making them feel heard.

  • You have an operational mindset: you naturally find ways to do things more efficiently and help others do the same, and you build and make processes faster and better as you go.

  • You've honed your prioritization instincts — you can separate the urgent from the noise in seconds.

  • You are a natural information archivist and architect: You know that written guides make complex procedures easier (bonus points if you appreciate the Checklist Manifesto!).

  • You are an adaptable communicator: You can transition between speaking to a frustrated customer, a busy engineer, an aloof executive, and a super user (and anyone in between!).

Qualifications
  • 3-5 years of experience in customer-facing or user-focused roles, ideally in startups (e.g. tech support, UI/UX, product design, IT, operations, etc)

    • Bonus: experience in high-volume, ticket-based support or other operations-heavy environments

  • Familiarity in ticketing platforms, CRMs, knowledge base software, and product development lifecycle software

Nice to Have
  • Technical writing experience

  • Knowledge of SaaS product development lifecycles

  • B2B & B2C experience (e.g. enterprise SaaS and retail)

  • Scripting skills: to automate tasks, customize solutions, create reports, analyze data, and debug issues
