This role requires a leader who thinks holistically about department performance — not just managing tickets, but building the systems, people, and culture that drive sustainable support quality at scale. The ideal candidate sees the full picture: how support connects to product, engineering, compliance, and the customer lifecycle, and translates that understanding into team execution.</p> <p>A core mandate of this role is driving the transition from reactive support to a proactive support department. The right candidate thrives in complexity, can deconstruct multi-layered problems into automatable components, and has a bias toward building systems that prevent tickets from being created in the first place. They should see every recurring issue as an automation opportunity and every manual process as a candidate for elimination.</p> <p>This is not a task management role. We are looking for someone who can own the strategic direction of the support org, identify gaps before they become problems, problem-solve complex cross-functional requests, and build a team that operates independently at a high standard.</p> <h2>Core Responsibilities</h2> <h3>People Leadership & Development</h3> <ul> <li>Own all people management for CSR and CSS agents: 1:1s, coaching, performance reviews, PIPs, hiring recommendations</li> <li>Build a culture of accountability, continuous improvement, and professional development</li> <li>Manage LATAM contractor workforce: onboarding, performance, scheduling, and cultural integration</li> <li>Identify skill gaps across the team and implement targeted training programs</li> </ul> <h3>Department Strategy & Operations</h3> <ul> <li>Own the holistic performance of the support organization across all tiers</li> <li>Design and refine escalation frameworks, workflow logic, and tier structures as volume and complexity evolve</li> <li>Build and maintain reporting cadences that surface actionable insights — not just dashboards, but narratives about what's working and what isn't</li> <li>Capacity plan across shifts, geographies, and skill levels to balance cost and coverage</li> <li>Drive semi-annual OKR setting and retrospectives for the support org</li> </ul> <h3>Cross-Functional Leadership</h3> <ul> <li>Represent Support in Product and Engineering discussions — advocate for customer pain points, surface bug patterns, and influence roadmap priorities</li> <li>Coordinate with Compliance on BSA/AML-adjacent support workflows and state-level regulatory requirements</li> <li>Own the cross-functional relationship with Legal — ensure escalation workflows are documented, consistently followed, and that response timelines meet legal and regulatory obligations.</li> <li>Partner with the Customer Success Operations Manager on tooling decisions, automation strategy, and AI optimization</li> <li>Collaborate with the Frontline Support Manager on escalation handoff quality and T1-to-T2 workflow efficiency</li> </ul> <h3>Proactive Support & Automation</h3> <ul> <li>Drive the department's evolution from reactive ticket resolution to proactive support — identifying and addressing customer issues before they generate contact volume</li> <li>Analyze contact driver data to isolate repeatable, high-volume issue patterns and build automated solutions that eliminate them at the source</li> <li>Own the automation roadmap for the support org — evaluate, propose, and implement workflow automations, self-service tooling, and AI-driven solutions that reduce manual effort and improve resolution speed</li> <li>Partner with Engineering and Product to close feedback loops — ensure recurring support issues translate into product fixes, in-app guidance, or automated resolution paths rather than permanent manual workarounds</li> <li>Champion a complexity-first mindset: break down multi-step, cross-system problems into discrete components that can be systematized, automated, documented, or self-served</li> <li>Track and report deflection and automation metrics — measure the impact of proactive initiatives on ticket volume, cost-per-resolution, and customer effort score</li> </ul> <h3>Continuous Improvement</h3> <ul> <li>Identify systemic inefficiencies in the support funnel and propose structural solutions</li> <li>Benchmark support performance against industry standards and competitors</li> <li>Evaluate and recommend tooling, automation, and process changes that reduce overall contact rates and cost-per-resolution while maintaining quality</li> </ul> <h2>Requirements</h2> <ul> <li>3+ years managing customer support or customer success teams, ideally in fintech, crypto, or regulated industries</li> <li>Demonstrated ability to think at a department level — connecting team performance to business outcomes</li> <li>Proven experience driving proactive support initiatives — reducing ticket volume through automation, self-service, workflow creation, or systemic fixes rather than adding headcount</li> <li>Strong ability to navigate complexity — can deconstruct multi-layered, cross-system problems and design scalable solutions</li> <li>Track record of identifying, proposing, and implementing automation workflows that measurably reduced manual effort or contact volume</li> <li>Experience managing distributed or remote teams across multiple time zones</li> <li>Strong analytical instinct — comfortable building reports, interpreting data, and making decisions from metrics</li> <li>Proven track record of coaching and developing team members, including difficult performance conversations</li> <li>Familiarity with CRM platforms (Intercom preferred, Zendesk or similar acceptable)</li> <li>Excellent written and verbal English communication</li> <li>Experience working with US-based leadership in a cross-cultural, remote environment</li> </ul> <h2>Nice to Have</h2> <ul> <li>Experience in cryptocurrency, blockchain, or financial services</li> <li>Familiarity with compliance-adjacent support operations (BSA/AML, state licensing)</li> <li>Hands-on experience with AI-augmented support tools (Fin, chatbots, intelligent routing)</li> <li>Experience building or managing no-code/low-code automation workflows (Make, n8n, Zapier, or similar)</li> <li>Background in scaling support orgs during periods of business model transition</li> </ul> <p><strong>Check out our <a
