We are hiring a Tier 1 Technical Support Specialist to join our North American support team. You will help customers use and troubleshoot home energy management products, mobile applications, connected hardware, and supported smart home devices. Customers will contact you by phone, email, and in-app chat. Some will need help getting started; others will have a device that will not connect or information that is missing from their app. Your job is to understand the problem, work through the appropriate steps, and explain what happens next. You will report to the Unified Tier 1 Manager and work with technical specialists and utility partner contacts when an issue requires additional help. Schedule Our support hours are 8 AM to 8 PM ET, Monday through Friday, and 9 AM to 6 PM ET on Saturday. This role’s regular schedule includes a required Saturday shift, helping ensure our customers receive reliable technical support throughout the week.

- Keep customers informed, follow through on commitments, and maintain clear ownership of assigned cases.
- Flag recurring problems and gaps in support documentation.
- Meet established expectations for response times, case quality, customer satisfaction, and follow-up.
- Complete product training and contribute useful troubleshooting findings to the team’s knowledge base.

Required Qualifications

- At least one year of customer-facing technical support experience, or equivalent practical experience troubleshooting technology with customers.
- Experience helping customers troubleshoot mobile apps, connected devices, or consumer hardware.
- A working understanding of home Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, device pairing, and common connectivity problems.

- The ability to manage several open cases, prioritize work, and follow up without repeated reminders.
- Patience when working with end users or people who are unfamiliar with technology.
- Sound judgment about when to continue troubleshooting and when to ask for help.
