Support Operations Systems Lead

User Ops · Full-time · Remote

Apply

Our mission is to automate coding. The first step in our journey is to build the best tool for professional programmers, using a combination of inventive research, design, and engineering. Our organization is very flat, and our team is small and talent dense. We particularly like people who are truth-seeking, passionate, and creative. We enjoy spirited debate, crazy ideas, and shipping code.

About the role

We’re hiring a Support Operations Systems Lead to help own the systems, workflows, and operating rhythms that keep User Operations running reliably at scale.

This is a hands-on technical support operations role for someone who can move fluidly between live triage of our projects, backlog management of internal requests, systems health, stakeholder communication, and end-to-end program ownership. You’ll work across ticketing workflows, routing logic, queue health, labeling taxonomy, escalation paths, workforce signals, and internal tooling requests.

The ideal person is more technical than a traditional operations lead, more hands-on than a traditional TPM, and less software-engineering-heavy than a dedicated SWE. You should be comfortable investigating messy operational issues, making or coordinating safe system changes, pushing back on unclear requests, and turning recurring problems into durable improvements.

What you’ll do

  • Own day-to-day operations for core support systems, including ticketing workflows, routing, queues, labels, taxonomy, escalations, and related tooling.

  • Triage urgent operational issues as they arise, especially when system behavior, workforce distribution, queue health, or SLA risk looks off.

  • Manage intake, prioritization, and follow-through for systems requests from support managers, TSEs, operations leads, engineering, product, and other internal teams.

  • Help maintain the team’s roadmap by distinguishing one-off fixes from broader system improvements, surfacing recurring pain points, and pushing back on low-leverage work.

  • Drive smaller technical and operational programs end-to-end, being responsible for discovery, scoping and execution, rollout, documentation and success metrics.

  • Partner with engineering, data, IT, and support leaders to debug issues, validate changes, improve monitoring, and prevent repeat failures.

  • Use Cursor and AI-native workflows to reduce manual toil, investigate issues, summarize signals, draft documentation, test changes, and improve how the team operates.

You may be a fit if

  • You have experience in support operations, systems operations, technical program management, or a similarly cross-functional technical systems role.

  • You are comfortable working close to operational systems such as ticketing platforms, routing workflows, queue configuration, labels/taxonomies, dashboards, Slack workflows, and internal tools.

  • You are technical enough to investigate system issues, read configuration or code, and partner effectively with engineers, even if you are not primarily a software engineer.

  • You are excellent at triage and prioritization: when several things are broken or ambiguous, you can quickly determine what is urgent, what needs investigation, what needs escalation, and what should become a longer-term fix.

  • You can own work end to end: clarify the problem, align stakeholders, sequence the work, communicate tradeoffs, launch safely, and measure whether the change worked.

  • You are comfortable pushing back thoughtfully and can tell stakeholders “not yet,” “not this way,” or “this should be part of a broader fix” while maintaining trust.

  • You are energized by a role that blends firefighting with systems-building, and you have a strong bias toward action, clarity, and continuous improvement.
