Customer Success Analyst
Remote (Canada)
Overview
With the launch of our new product, Labbit, we are excited to build our first Customer Success Analyst Team at Semaphore that will play a key part in our customers’ experience. In this role, individuals will work directly with our customers and are an integral part of the team as we transition into a product company and grow the Customer Success organization. This role is an opportunity to develop technical skills and learn about the critical function that a platform plays within a laboratory setting. We look forward to helping the Customer Success Analyst (CSA) learn about our product's technical landscape and contribute to customer success by resolving and escalating technical queries.
About the Opportunity
Reporting to the Head of Customer Success, you will join a new team at Semaphore focused on enabling customers as their first point of contact after the platform is implemented in their lab. You will be responsible for triaging Tier 1 issues, routing internal requests as appropriate, and escalating requests that require additional support. Issues that can be resolved at the Tier 1 level will be your responsibility to troubleshoot and close. You will also prepare technical documentation on product usage and troubleshooting as you learn the product and how our customers use it.
As a CSA, you are motivated to grow your technical and product knowledge and understand the importance of self-learning, as the team builds out its initial processes and procedures. You are someone who can stay organized day-to-day, as you will drive process documentation while also monitoring various queues for customer-reported issues. When responding to customer queries, you will action issues appropriately based on triage resources and escalation pathways.
To be successful in this role, you must be service-oriented and have strong written and verbal communication skills, as this will lend well to prompt, thorough and positive support for our customers. You thrive in a dynamic team environment and can adapt with ease to changing responsibilities throughout the day. As this is a new role, it will be important not to shy away from asking questions or seeking clarification when needed; we are a team that values collaboration to find solutions. Experience in genomics, clinical laboratories, or health sciences is an asset but not required.
Please note that this role will include an on-call component, so the ability to work outside standard business hours is a key requirement.
