Customer Success & Operations Lead

Puck
San Francisco, CA Full Time
POSTED ON 4/20/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 10/17/2026

Role Overview

We're looking for a sharp, detail-oriented Operations Analyst to join our growing team. This is a foundational role — you'll be one of our first ops hires, which means you'll have real ownership and direct impact on how we serve our customers and scale our internal processes. 

This is a unique hybrid role designed for someone who loves solving puzzles and advocating for the user. You will sit at the intersection of Customer Success and Product Quality, ensuring our platform is bug-free while helping our customers achieve their hiring goals.

You won't just be managing tickets; you will be the primary feedback loop that helps us decide what to build next and ensures that what we ship is rock solid.


Core Responsibilities

1. Customer Success & Insights

  • Serve as the primary point of contact for technical onboarding and high-level support for our key accounts.
  • Monitor account health and usage patterns to proactively identify struggling customers.
  • Translate "customer pain" into structured product feedback for the engineering team.
  • Build and maintain playbooks for onboarding, renewals, and escalations.
  • Drive measurable customer satisfaction by transforming vague operational problems into technical solutions leveraging automation and AI workflows.

2. Quality Assurance (QA)

  • Audit customer-facing interactions (support tickets, emails, calls) against defined quality standards
  • Own the User Acceptance Testing (UAT) process for all new feature releases.
  • Develop and maintain QA scorecards and reporting frameworks
  • Reproduce and document bugs reported by users, providing clear steps for the engineering team to fix them.
  • Design and deploy production-ready AI tools and automated playbooks that drive down bugs and increase reliability.

3. Operational Excellence

  • Maintain our internal and external knowledge bases (FAQs, "How-to" guides, and feature release notes).
  • Beta test new technologies that can improve and streamline our operations.


Qualifications

  • 1–4 years of experience in a SaaS environment (Customer Success, Support Ops, or QA).
  • Analytical Mindset: You enjoy digging into data to find the "why" behind a problem.
  • Technical Curiosity: You don’t need to code, but you should be comfortable using Chrome DevTools, looking at logs, and understanding API basics.
  • Communication: You can explain a complex technical bug to a non-technical customer and a business requirement to a developer.
  • Startup Grit: You are comfortable wearing multiple hats and building processes from scratch.
