About the role
- We've launched over a dozen credit card programs, including for Coinbase, Bilt, and Qatar Airways.

Responsibilities
- Own Tier 3 escalations - complex cases with financial, legal, or regulatory implications that require cross-functional coordination
- Document resolution paths and update the internal knowledge base so cases don't repeat unnecessarily
- Contribute to SOPs and training materials that help frontline and BPO agents handle more on their own
- 4+ years in customer support, with substantial time spent at a lead level.
- BPO experience: you've managed or closely supported an outsourced team and understand how to build for that environment.
- It's about being the person who builds the systems, SOPs, and capability so that hard tickets become routine and routine tickets get handled without you.
- If you're someone who gets restless just closing cases and wants to own the whole improvement loop, this is for you.
- You diagnose where the confusion is, write the SOP, build the macro, and validate that T2 is executing correctly.
- Escalated support doesn't follow a neat schedule.
- ✈️ Team building events & happy hours
Requirements
