The role

As Customer Support, you help customers quickly and reliably, and you make sure every reply is clear and actually solves the problem.

You’ll work primarily in our helpdesk / Help Center platform (currently Zendesk, with a planned migration), collaborate closely with Operations and Product/Engineering, and improve our processes by spotting patterns and turning them into better workflows.

Tasks

What you’ll do

  • Own day-to-day customer communication via email (and other channels as we add them)
  • Support Redemptions as a core part of the role: help execute redemptions end-to-end in collaboration with our AI Assistant, and ensure the customer gets the right outcome
  • Investigate and resolve issues across our systems (Backoffice, Shop/Orders, tracking & delivery, refunds)
  • Coordinate special cases with external partners (shops, carriers, vendors) when needed
  • Keep tickets clean: correct categorization, tags, and clear internal notes so the next person can pick up instantly
  • Escalate technical or high-risk cases early and clearly (and help define what “high risk” means)
  • Identify recurring issues, suggest improvements, and help ship better workflows, macros, and Help Center articles

Requirements

What we’re looking for

Must-haves

  • Excellent written communication in English (German is a plus, but not mandatory)
  • Strong customer mindset: you genuinely enjoy helping people
  • Structured thinking: you can handle ambiguity, prioritize well, and stay calm under pressure
  • Ownership: you don’t just answer questions, you see them through to a real outcome
  • Comfort with tools and processes (you like making things clearer, not messier)

Nice-to-haves

  • Experience in Customer Support / Customer Service (fast-paced environment is a plus)
  • Experience with Zendesk (or similar helpdesk tools)
  • Familiarity with e-commerce operations: orders, shipping, tracking, refunds, returns
  • Comfort collaborating async in a distributed team

How we work (standards)

  • Response time goal: within 24 hours (faster when possible)
  • Reliability: only promise what you can deliver, and follow through

Benefits

What you’ll get

  • Flexible working hours (especially suitable if you’re studying)
  • Remote-first setup
  • Weekend availability is a plus (depending on scheduling and support coverage)
  • A friendly team with short communication paths
  • Room to shape processes and tools
  • Insight into how a modern ops + product + automation stack is built

Growth opportunities

  • Depending on team needs, there may be an opportunity to move into the Engineering team in the future. Deep product knowledge is a strong plus.
  • Our Engineering team works fully remote, like the rest of the company.
