Technical Support Representative
Have you ever had an interaction like this: Someone calls in, frantic because they're losing "millions of dollars a minute" due to some downtime or because of an issue on their server. We KNOW you have. And being able to help that person and fix their problem? That's a great feeling. There's just something inherently fulfilling about helping someone work through an issue.
Look, we build great software, but there ARE times when someone has an issue and needs to contact us for help working through it.
That's where you come in. Are you someone who likes troubleshooting issues? Do you enjoy figuring out why, all of a sudden, something isn't doing what it's supposed to do, even though "nothing was changed on the server"? Do you enjoy educating people on what DNS actually is, and how the slightest mistake in an SPF record can cause emails to end up in a junk folder? If so, you sound like the ideal SmarterTools Technical Support representative.
