Who We Are:
Our Support and Operational Productivity team is at the intersection of cutting-edge technology and exceptional customer experience. We're a high-impact, collaborative group of product managers, engineers, designers, and operations specialists who build the intelligent systems that power world-class support. Our support world is uniquely complex. We serve schools and parents coordinating their children’s transportation, school administrators managing district-wide logistics, drivers navigating complex pickup instructions and multi-stop coordination, and the operations team orchestrating it all. Every interaction involves multiple stakeholders, tight safety requirements, and real-time coordination.
Our goal is to push the boundaries of what’s possible with Generative AI, Conversational AI, and LLM-powered assistance to create seamless, human-centric experiences. Our platforms span the entire support ecosystem, from self-service experience that anticipate customer needs to agent tools that make complex problems feel effortless to solve. Whether it’s voice, chat, workflow automation, or CRM integration, we’re creating the next generation of support technology.
It’s not just about building tools, it’s about fundamentally reimagining how support works. We move fast, think big, and measure our success by how much more effective we make our agents and how much happier we make our customers. You'll be joining a team that thrives on innovation, values continuous improvement, and believes the best support experiences feel like magic to both customers and agents.
