What You'll Do

  • Provide visionary leadership and mentor a team of technically skilled customer support professionals, fostering a culture of excellence, innovation, and continuous improvement
  • Develop and implement customer support strategies aligned with Tailscale's goals and vision
  • Establish and monitor key performance indicators (KPIs) for the support team, leveraging data-driven insights to ensure high-quality service delivery now and into the future
  • Collaborate with Product, Engineering, and Revenue teams to address customer needs and enhance the overall customer experience
  • Lead in-depth analyses of customer feedback and support data to identify trends and opportunities for product and process improvements
  • Implement and optimize support tools and technologies to increase efficiency and effectiveness
  • Oversee the development and continual enhancement of support documentation, knowledge bases, and training materials
  • Manage the support team's budget and resources effectively
  • Represent the voice of the customer within the organization, ensuring that customer needs and preferences are prioritized and addressed in strategic decision-making processes

You may be a fit for this role if you have:

  • 7+ years of experience in customer support or related fields, with at least 3 years in a leadership role
  • Demonstrated experience supporting a broad range of customer types, from individual B2C users all the way to enterprise customers in the B2B SaaS space
  • A strong understanding of SaaS, networking, and security concepts
  • Familiarity with VPNs, networking protocols, and cybersecurity concepts
  • An eagerness to learn, keeping yourself and your team up with evolving customer questions and Tailscale’s product roadmap
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to interact effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • A proven track record of building and scaling high-performing support teams
  • Experience with support tools and technologies (e.g., Jira Service Manager)
  • A data-driven approach to problem-solving and decision-making
  • Experience with remote team management (though expect to organize and participate in meetups with your team from time to time)

As a company, we strive to maintain fair and equitable compensation practices within our team across all roles and all levels. We use San Francisco market data to establish our pay ranges.
