Customer Support Lead

Be the person customers trust when it matters most.

Financial products break at the worst times — a failed transfer, a blocked account, a KYC hold. We need someone who can own the support function end-to-end: handle escalations, build the processes, and set the bar for how we treat customers. This is a founding role, not a ticket queue.

What you'll do

  • Own the customer support function across all channels — email, chat, and in-app
  • Resolve escalated issues related to payments, accounts, KYC/KYB, and cards
  • Build and maintain a support knowledge base, macros, and escalation workflows
  • Identify recurring issues and work with product and engineering to resolve root causes
  • Track support metrics: response time, resolution rate, CSAT, and backlog health
  • Hire and onboard support agents as the team scales

Requirements

  • 4+ years in customer support or operations — fintech, banking, or payments required
  • Experience owning a support function, not just executing within one
  • Familiarity with KYC/KYB processes and how identity verification issues present in support
  • Strong written communicator in both English and Spanish
  • Experience with support tooling (Intercom, Zendesk, or equivalent) and CRM systems
  • Calm under pressure — you've handled high-stakes financial disputes and know how to de-escalate

Nice to have

  • +Experience supporting customers in LATAM or other international markets
  • +Background in compliance, fraud, or financial operations
  • +Experience building a support team from scratch at an early-stage company

What we offer

  • Competitive salary + equity
  • Full ownership of the support function — build it the right way from day one
  • Remote-first environment
  • Direct access to product and engineering to fix problems at the source
