nestmed - Manager, Customer Support
Requirements
• 5+ years in customer or technical support, with at least 2 years managing a support team in healthtech or healthcare SaaS • People leadership track record — you've coached Support Specialists through performance issues, developed high-performers, and built team culture intentionally, not accidentally • Process orientation — you've built or overhauled a support workflow before and have opinions about what good triage, escalation, and documentation look like • Proven L2 technical chops — you can diagnose root causes, write a coherent bug report, and hold your own in a conversation with engineering • Clinical context — familiarity with home health workflows, EHR/EMR systems, or intake and charting environments is a strong plus • Communication range — clear with your team, credible with engineering, and plain-spoken with clinicians who don't have time for jargon • Zendesk proficiency — or a comparable platform; you're managing in the tooling, not learning it • The Non-Negotiable Bar • You've led a support team before, not just managed one. You know the difference between coaching someone through a hard ticket and just taking it over, and you default to the former. You can hold the player-coach balance without letting either half slip. You bring genuine patience to the work, because your team is supporting people in one of the most stressful environments there is: healthcare, and that standard starts with you. • If you’re passionate about building high-impact products that solve real-world problems, we’d love to hear from you.

Responsibilities
• Team Leadership (50%) — Manage, coach, and develop a team of Technical Customer Support Specialists. Run structured 1:1s, deliver clear performance feedback, and build a culture where accountability and empathy coexist. You don't just manage the queue, you develop the people working it. • Process & Playbook Development — Build and maintain the escalation paths, triage frameworks, response templates, and SLA standards that keep the team operating at high quality, even on bad days. • Performance & Metrics — Implement and own team KPIs: response time, resolution rate, CSAT, escalation volume. Surface insights to the Head of CS and advocate for the resources your team needs to hit them. • L2 Escalation (30%) — Step in on complex, unresolved, or high-sensitivity tickets that require deeper technical investigation. You're the bridge between the support team and engineering, translating user-reported issues into actionable bug reports and following through on resolution. • Cross-Functional Partnership — Collaborate with Product, Engineering, and Implementation to close the loop on systemic issues, advocate for product improvements surfaced by support trends, and ensure enterprise clients receive a consistent, high-touch experience. • Hiring & Onboarding — Partner with recruiting to grow the team as volume scales. Own onboarding so new team members ramp quickly, consistently, and with the right habits from day one. • Clinician-Centered Culture — Model the patience, empathy, and communication standard you expect from your team. Your reps are supporting non-technical users who are mid-patient-care when things go wrong. That context should shape every coaching conversation you have.
