You'll dive deep into complex technical challenges, providing swift and effective solutions while serving as a product expert. As a part of the Customer Experience organization, you will collaborate closely with product and sales, driving continuous improvement of our offerings. This is an exciting opportunity for a deeply technical professional passionate about AI and customer success to make a significant impact in a fast-paced, innovative environment. ## Responsibilities - Triage and respond to inbound support tickets across self-serve and enterprise customers using a support/CRM platform; identify patterns in ticket clusters (e.g., a wave of the same error code), surface them to engineering with context and affected case lists, and follow through to resolution. - Draft clear, accurate status updates and maintenance notifications for customers during planned maintenance windows or incidents; communicate expected impact without exposing internal platform details. - Collaborate seamlessly across Engineering, Research, and Product teams to address customer concerns; collaborate with senior leaders both internally and externally to ensure the highest levels of customer satisfaction. - Answer customer questions about the platform's API, model/fine-tuning workflows, model availability, and deployment/endpoint configuration; reproduce reported errors to confirm expected vs. broken behavior and provide actionable next steps. - Provision and configure SSO connections for enterprise customers (Google Workspace, Okta, Azure AD, etc.); guide customers through IdP-side setup steps; diagnose login failures by cross-referencing the platform's identity provider configuration against the customer's; escalate confirmed platform-side gaps. - Triage customer billing questions using billing/subscription tooling (e.g., Stripe, Metronome, or equivalent); process or coordinate refunds for prepaid credits and disputed charges; investigate negative-balance and credit-limit enforcement issues; escalate edge cases to the billing/finance team with full context. - Resolve API key creation failures, org linkage issues, and project/key limit requests; coordinate user access changes (adding/removing org members, SSO org ownership transfers); investigate tenant isolation issues. ## Requirements - 2+ years of experience in a customer-facing technical role - Comfortable reading and writing curl/HTTP requests, interpreting JSON error responses, and understanding concepts like bearer tokens, rate limits, and API key scoping; no deep software engineering background required, but must be able to follow and reproduce API-level issues. - Familiarity with how SaaS billing works (invoices, prepaid credits, refunds); comfortable navigating admin dashboards and understanding what a payment state means. - Working knowledge of SAML and OIDC concepts (ACS URL, audience URI, attribute mapping, IdP vs. SP); enough to walk a customer's IT admin through a configuration and recognize whether an error is on the customer side or platform side. - Familiarity with infrastructure services (e.g., Kubernetes, SLURM), infrastructure as code solutions (e.g., Ansible) high-performance network fabrics, NFS-based storage management, container infrastructure, and scripting and programming languages. - Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders. - Prior experience with a customer support platform (Zendesk, Intercom, Pylon, Freshdesk, or similar); comfortable managing a queue, updating ticket state, and writing internal notes. - Familiarity with how language model APIs work (tokens, context windows, serverless vs. dedicated inference) - Strong sense of ownership and willingness to learn new skills to ensure both team and customer success. - Ability to operate in dynamic environments, adept at managing multiple projects, and comfortable with frequent context switching and prioritization. ## About Together AI Together AI is a research-driven artificial intelligence company.
