What are the responsibilities and job description for the Technical Support Specialist position at Zocdoc?
Our Mission
Healthcare should work for patients, but it doesn’t. In their time of need, they call down outdated insurance directories. Then wait on hold. Then wait weeks for the privilege of a visit. Then wait in a room solely designed for waiting. Then wait for a surprise bill. In any other consumer industry, the companies delivering such a poor customer experience would not survive. But in healthcare, patients lack market power. Which means they are expected to accept the unacceptable.
Zocdoc’s mission is to give power to the patient. To do that, we’ve built the leading healthcare marketplace that makes it easy to find and book in-person or virtual care in all 50 states, across 200 specialties and 12k insurance plans. By giving patients the ability to see and choose, we give them power. In doing so, we can make healthcare work like every other consumer sector, where businesses compete for customers, not the other way around. In time, this will drive quality up and prices down.
We’re 18 years old and the leader in our space, but we are still just getting started. If you like solving important, complex problems alongside deeply thoughtful, driven, and collaborative teammates, read on.
Your Impact on our Mission
Zocdoc’s most important asset is our people. As a Technical Support Specialist, you’ll play a vital role in ensuring employees in the New York office and remote users across the U.S. have the technology and support they need to succeed. You’ll focus on onboarding and offboarding processes, triaging IT requests, troubleshooting employee systems, and maintaining accurate asset and inventory records. You’ll also provide in-person support in our New York City office five days a week, serving as the go-to resource for walk-up requests and daily onsite IT coverage. This role is a great opportunity for someone early in their IT career who wants to build technical experience, contribute directly to the success of our teams, and grow toward a senior technical support or engineering role while helping advance Zocdoc’s mission to give power to the patient.
