Full Job Description
What You're Applying For

At Triple Whale, we're passionate about delivering exceptional experiences for our customers, and we're looking for a leader who shares that same passion.

We're hiring a Director of Customer Support to build the function that scales with our customers as we grow. You'll own frontline support, support engineering, bug triage, and customer education - and you'll do it AI-first, with Moby as a force multiplier from day one.

This is a technical yet operationally rigorous leadership role. Our customers ask hard questions about attribution, pixel behavior, ad-platform integrations, and data correctness. You'll lead a team that has to answer them credibly, and you'll set the technical bar for what "good" looks like - in reproductions, in root-cause analysis, in the hand-off to R&D, and in the way we talk to customers about hard problems. This is a builder role: you'll set the operating model, hire the team, define the metrics, and turn support from a reactive cost center into a compounding advantage for the business.
What You'll Do
  • Lead the team. Hire, coach, and develop a high-performing Customer Support org - support managers, frontline ICs, and a support engineering bench and set the technical bar for the function.
  • Set and execute the strategy. Define how Customer Support scales with the business and build the processes, workflows, and systems that get us there without linear headcount growth.
  • Take an AI-first approach. Design how Moby and our AI tooling deflect, triage, and assist - the operating contracts, retrieval quality, guardrails, QA loop, and human-handoff moments that make it trustworthy and measurably better every quarter.
  • Run operations against real metrics. Own response time, time-to-resolution, CSAT, deflection, ticket-per-customer, and team productivity - instrument them, publish them, move them.
  • Stand up support engineering as a discipline. Lead the technical work directly: reproductions, log diving, SQL, API debugging, pixel/integration triage, and the closed-loop on customer comms.
  • Own bug triage end-to-end. Intake, severity model, SLAs, ownership, and the reporting that gives leadership a real-time view of what's broken, who owns it, and what's at stake in ARR.
  • Partner with Product and Engineering. Be the technical interface to R&D - credible on the issues, sharp on prioritization, and the source-of-truth for customer-driven roadmap signal and trend analysis.
  • Be the senior escalation point for complex customer situations and platform issues, and the person customers and execs trust to get them resolved.
  • Build the knowledge layer. Documentation, KB, in-app guidance, and customer education that powers both self-serve resolution and Moby-assisted answers.
  • Own staffing and capacity - headcount modeling, organizational design, and global coverage across US, EMEA, and APAC to support business growth.
  • Set the culture. Customer-first, technically rigorous, accountable, and obsessed with continuous improvement.
What You'll Bring
  • 8+ years of experience in Customer Support, Customer Experience, or Customer Operations within a SaaS environment.
  • 3+ years of experience leading managers and building high-performing support teams.
  • You've actually shipped AI in a support context - not as a roadmap slide. You can speak to deflection rates, retrieval quality, hallucination guardrails, and the failure modes of LLM-driven triage.
  • You've built or rebuilt a B2B SaaS support function through a hyper-growth or platform-complexity phase - ideally in martech, analytics, attribution, fintech, or another data-heavy category where "the number looks wrong" is a daily ticket.
  • Strong understanding of support operations, workforce planning, service delivery, and customer support best practices.
  • Experience managing support KPIs, reporting frameworks, and operational dashboards.
  • Demonstrated ability to partner effectively with Product and Engineering teams to improve customer outcomes.
  • Exceptional leadership, coaching, and people development skills.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities, with a data-driven approach to decision-making.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to influence stakeholders across the organization.
  • Experience supporting e-commerce, analytics, martech, or SaaS products is highly preferred.
  • Familiarity with Intercom, HubSpot, Intercom, Salesforce, or similar support platforms.
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth environment while balancing strategic initiatives with operational execution.
