How you'll role

 

As a Customer Support Specialist, you’ll be the first point of contact for clients, providing technical support, troubleshooting system and device issues, and ensuring customers get maximum value from our golf course optimization solutions. You’ll manage support tickets, deliver clear communication, and collaborate with internal teams to resolve challenges. The role also involves proactive system monitoring, reporting on support performance, and contributing to product improvements. Flexibility for after-hours and weekend support is essential.

Client & Stakeholder Engagement

  • Manage direct communication with clients and internal stakeholders through email, live chat, and phone calls, ensuring timely updates and professional resolution
  • Follow up on support-related queries until successful resolution, providing clear explanations to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Build strong client relationships by delivering value-driven support, clear communication, and proactive outreach
  • Communicate recurring technical challenges to Developers, Technical Coordinators, and Product teams, contributing to product and process improvements
  • Provide updates to Sales Partners and the Customer Success team regarding course challenges, feature requests, and client feedback

Reporting & Continuous Improvement

  • Report on Support KPIs, service-level performance, and resolution turnaround times to Management
  • Prepare weekly reports on open, pending, and high-priority tickets, highlighting risks and resolutions
  • Share client insights and feedback with internal teams to drive continuous improvement in support processes and system performance
  • Participate in knowledge base updates, documentation, and training materials to strengthen first-line resolution

  • Data Analysis: 1 to 2 years
  • Technical Support: 1 to 2 years
  • Troubleshooting: 1 to 2 years
