About the role
Attio is the CRM built for the AI era. Designed for the most ambitious go-to-market teams, it gives companies the power to understand every customer, automate at scale, and build their go-to-market motion exactly as they need. We've raised $116M from some of the world's best investors: GV (Google Ventures), Redpoint, Balderton, Point Nine, and 01A. We hire builders who thrive on complex technical challenges, hold themselves to a high bar, and genuinely care about delighting the people who use what they build. The team here brings sharp judgement, real craft, and the drive to do exceptional work. We're obsessed about the details and energized by the frontier. If you want to do the best work of your career, this is the right place. You will own the technical and operational ownership of the support experience, ensuring that every customer interaction reflects the high standards of clarity and care. You will act as the trusted voice of Attio, diagnosing issues and advocating for customer needs across teams.

You will refine internal processes and documentation so that the customer journey remains seamless and exceptional. You will collaborate daily with Product and Engineering to turn complex issues into streamlined resolutions. You will set a new benchmark for B2B SaaS support by turning challenging situations into moments of delight. This role is for someone who finds genuine satisfaction in solving difficult problems and delivering outstanding service.
