Customer Support Specialist

Puzzle
San Francisco, CA Full Time
POSTED ON 5/23/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 6/21/2026
Puzzle is redefining how companies navigate their financials. We've built modern, AI-powered accounting software that empowers accounting firms and the founders they serve with real-time, comprehensive financial insights. Our platform drafts books in real time, integrates natively with Stripe, Ramp, Mercury, Brex, Gusto, and more and delivers AI-powered analysis that goes far beyond traditional accounting systems.

What We're Looking For

As a Customer Support Specialist, you'll be on the front lines ensuring our customers get the seamless, high-quality experience they deserve. You'll work closely with Customer Success, Engineering, and Product to field technical questions, triage issues, and help us build out a support function that scales — all while deepening your own expertise in a fast-moving SaaS platform at the intersection of accounting and fintech.

This is a ground-floor opportunity. We've maintained a best-in-class customer satisfaction score without a dedicated support function — and now we're ready to build one properly. You'll define what great support looks like here: the processes, the knowledge base, the escalation playbook, and the tooling workflows.

This is an ideal role for someone who finds the support craft itself energizing — fast resolution, pattern recognition, documentation that scales — and wants to grow into product or technical support while learning the inner workings of a fast-scaling platform.

Accounting/bookkeeping Experience Is Highly Preferred.

What You'll Do

  • Become a Product Expert: Develop deep expertise in every aspect of the platform — features, workflows, edge cases — so you can resolve issues quickly, provide authoritative guidance, and anticipate what customers need before they ask.
  • Provide Technical Customer Support: Be the first responder for customer questions across support channels — how-to questions, configuration guidance, integration troubleshooting, billing inquiries, and data export requests.
  • Build and Maintain the Knowledge Base: Turn repeated questions into help articles, document common support patterns, and keep runbooks current as the product ships new features weekly.
  • Write Clear, Actionable Bug Reports: Create detailed, reproducible bug reports and gather logs or screenshots that help engineers resolve problems quickly.
  • Test Pre-Release Features: Validate new features before they ship to catch issues early and help maintain the reliability our users count on.
  • Drive Issue Resolution: Serve as the bridge between Customer Success and Engineering — closing the loop on high-priority incidents and making sure the right teams have the right context.
  • Surface Product Signal: Tag issues by theme, spot emerging patterns, and ensure what you're hearing from customers reaches the teams building the product.

Who You Are

  • 2–4 years of experience in a technical customer support, product specialist, QA, or customer-facing role at a SaaS or fintech company — ideally with exposure to accounting or finance workflows.
  • Strong written communicator — crisp, clear, and professional in async channels. You write responses customers actually want to read.
  • A fast learner with sharp pattern recognition — you naturally turn repeated questions into scalable documentation and can keep pace with a rapidly evolving platform.
  • A natural problem-solver with genuine curiosity; you're energized by ambiguous problems and excited to work in a fast-paced startup environment.
  • Comfortable with technical adjacency — you understand API basics, integration concepts, and can read error messages without needing an engineer to translate.
  • Skilled at translating technical details into clear, concise documentation that a range of audiences can act on.
  • Excellent collaborator with strong cross-functional communication skills; you enjoy working alongside engineers, product managers, and customer-facing teams.
  • Familiar with tools like Zendesk, Intercom, Pylon, Linear, Datadog, or Retool — or eager and quick to learn.
  • Accounting or bookkeeping experience is highly preferred.

What's In It For You

Join us at a pivotal growth stage where you'll help define how companies handle their financials — and build your career in a flexible, remote-first environment backed by world-class investors. You'll have real ownership, work with innovative founders, and develop deep expertise at the intersection of modern accounting and fintech.
