Customer Support Specialist

Customer Support Specialist Customer Support Specialist About Us We're building AI employees. Not chatbots. Not copilots. Autonomous digital workers that do real jobs. Our first, Ava, is an AI BDR used by hundreds of companies. She researches leads, writes and sends emails in a customer's voice, runs multi-step outbound sequences, manages her own deliverability infrastructure, self-optimizes over time, and handles objections and meeting booking. She's not a tool someone uses. She's a teammate. We're a YC W24 company, have raised $35M+ from investors including Y Combinator, and are at $8M+ ARR. Right now we're building Ava 2.0, a step change in what an AI employee can do. The engineering problems are hard and the surface area is enormous. The Role Artisan isn't a single product. It's an entire working platform that replaces the sales stack - CRM, inbox, dialer, lead database, campaign engine, website visitor tracking, and AI agent management, all in one product. As a Customer Support Specialist, you will be on the frontlines of how users experience Artisan. This is not a ticket-closing role. You’ll help users understand, adopt, and succeed with a fundamentally new way of working alongside AI employees. You’ll operate at the intersection of product, engineering, and customers — resolving issues, uncovering patterns, and shaping how support evolves in an AI-native world. This is a high-ownership, high-context role. You won’t just solve problems. You’ll help define what great support looks like for AI employees.

Resolve issues quickly while ensuring a high-quality, human experience. - Help users succeed with AI employees Guide customers in understanding how Ava works, what she’s doing, and how to get the most value out of her.

Surface insights to product and engineering to improve the platform. - Work closely with product and engineering Collaborate with internal teams to debug issues, escalate bugs, and ensure fast resolution.

Contribute to building a scalable, high-quality support function. - Drive speed and quality Balance fast response times with thoughtful, accurate support. We move quickly, but quality always matters. - Own customer experience metrics Care about response times, resolution rates, and - most importantly - customer satisfaction and retention.
