Technical Support Engineer
$90k - $140k USD
Pocus exists to supercharge GTM teams. We make every rep a 10x seller. With Pocus, organizations can have fewer, better reps to drive increased pipeline and revenue.
How? We’ve created the world’s most powerful, AI-native prospecting platform.
Pocus influences nearly half a billion in pipeline per quarter for our customers. We’re trusted by high growth companies like Asana, Monday, Canva, and Miro where Pocus powers up to 50% of their pipeline and eliminates 10+ hrs of work per rep per week.
Pocus has hundreds of always-on AI agents doing the manual, tedious work of researching & prospecting so that reps can do what they do best: sell. With Pocus AI agents working for them, rep’s days are simplified. Reps get alerts when compelling events happen, account plans are generated by AI, and agents recommend who to reach out to with the next best action. We’re fortunate to be backed by First Round, Coatue, and execs like CEO Zoom, CPO Adobe, CRO OpenAI, who are helping us usher in this future of sales.
Our CS org has one goal: We transform GTM teams into best in class operators, creating repeatable top decile revenue performance and GTM efficiency. As a founding member of the Customer Success team, you’ll be at the forefront of our mission, working directly with customers in a highly consultative way to guide them through every step of the customer journey towards GTM excellence. You’ll have the opportunity to have outsized impact on our customers’ business as a trusted partner and expert.
The Pocus team is full of humble overachievers that like to move quickly (we call it shiperate), own our work, give customers superpowers, and create magic for our team… all while having a ton of fun. Join us on this next phase of growth!
Why this role
Solve real problems for customers with a product that they love: Go-to-market teams rely on Pocus to uncover new revenue opportunities and save hours / week digging through data. Customer’s have referred to Pocus as an “answer to all of their prayers”.

Meaningfully shape our product: We’re extremely customer-centric at Pocus. You’ll be the eyes and ears for all customer needs and work with the co-founders and product to inform our roadmap.

Who you are
As a small and early stage start-up, alignment on culture and values is our #1 priority. People that are successful at Pocus, regardless of role, strongly identify with the following:
You are a humble over-achiever. You’re constantly asking for and excited about feedback that helps you learn and grow.
You don’t take yourself too seriously. You like to work hard but not without plenty of smiles and laughs along the way 🙂
You are delusionally optimistic. Big challenges and projects excite and motivate you.
You have exceptional integrity and always do the right thing, even if and especially when no one else is watching.
You are a problem solver, not a problem identifier. Your first reaction when encountering something that isn’t working is to think “What can I do to make this better?”
You strive to perfectly balance individual initiative with humility and collaboration, understanding when it is better to ask for help and when it is better to solve a problem independently.
You move with a self-imposed sense of urgency. You strive to constantly find the perfect balance between speed and quality and you understand when to make that tradeoff.
You have a high bar for quality and you honor your commitments.
You are excited about building foundations and you love learning new things as part of that. You have a bias towards documentation and writing things down.
You are excited about working in a high-growth, fast paced environment where you can have meaningful ownership and impact on the business, and understand that sometimes that requires short sprints (key word short - we recognize that this is a marathon and we don’t want you to burn out!)
If the above resonates, here are the job related qualifications that we’re looking for:
2-4 years of relevant experience in Technical Support role at a B2B SaaS company preferred
Comfortable working with APIs, Salesforce, SQL/SOQL
Experience reading code, and testing specific class/methods locally
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with an ability to communicate effectively to varying levels of technical maturity
A natural investigator who can demonstrate analysis, problem-solving, and troubleshooting skills
You are empathetic and highly driven to make customers successful with a consultative attitude
You thrive with autonomy and ambiguity and love taking on open-ended unstructured problems
You’re able to think on your feet and solve problems creatively during calls with technical customers
You’re excited to create and shape new processes and workflows
You’re highly adaptable, easily acclimating to a rapidly changing business and industry
You have a growth mindset and view setbacks as learning opportunities, not failures
You’re naturally curious
