Role overview
The Customer Operations Lead acts as the primary support contact for Bastion’s partners, especially during a major integration. This position manages daily escalations, triages technical issues, and works closely with engineering, product, finance operations, and compliance teams to resolve challenges. Building scalable processes, developing a knowledge base, and introducing tools for efficient support are central to this role.
What you will do
- Respond to partner inquiries and handle escalation workflows directly, not just through documentation or delegation.
- Define and update the scope of support as the partner network expands.
- Create sustainable processes and resources to support partners at scale.
- Develop and manage the BPO approach as inquiry volume grows, maintaining high service standards.
- Select, implement, and optimize AI-powered support tools, such as knowledge bases for AI agents and automated triage systems, to improve efficiency without adding headcount.
- Regularly assess and enhance support tools and workflows for performance and effectiveness.
- Work cross-functionally from day one, collaborating with engineering on technical issues, product on documentation, and compliance on regulatory processes.
Requirements
- Experience with automation workflows, AI tools, or platforms like Claude Code is a strong plus.
- Skill in identifying and removing repetitive manual tasks through smart tool selection and process design.
- Good judgment in choosing when to automate and when a personal approach is needed.
- Comfort working across teams and disciplines to resolve partner issues quickly and accurately.
Location
This position is based in New York City.
