About the Role
~1 min readWe're looking for a Senior Operations Engineer, CX to design, build, deploy, and improve the technology-enabled systems that make our customer experience operations faster, more scalable, and more reliable. This isn't a traditional software engineering role — we need a senior builder and operator who can deeply understand an operational workflow, determine the right technical approach, build or orchestrate a solution, launch it, measure the outcome, and continuously improve it. You'll sit at the intersection of CX, Operations, Product, Engineering, and Data, independently leading complex initiatives that support cross-functional and company-level goals.
- Independently identify, prioritize, and lead high-impact operational initiatives from discovery through launch, measurement, and iteration
- Design, build, deploy, and maintain AI-enabled tools, agents, automations, and workflows that improve customer support and other CX operations
- Translate complex operational processes and policies into clear system logic, prompts, tools, escalation paths, and appropriate human-in-the-loop controls
- Use APIs, webhooks, workflow platforms, internal tools, and AI platforms pragmatically to connect systems and automate end-to-end workflows
- Build and improve LLM-powered workflows for use cases such as classification, routing, summarization, troubleshooting, suggested responses, quality assessment, and automated resolution
- Partner closely with frontline teams to understand workflow pain points and turn them into scalable systems and tooling improvements
- Work effectively with Product, Engineering, Data, Finance, and other partners, translating operational needs into clear technical requirements and helping cross-functional teams move faster
- Troubleshoot issues across integrations, prompts, workflows, and data flows, independently resolving what sits within the role and engaging Engineering when deeper product or infrastructure work is required
- Define success measures and evaluate the impact of AI and automation through metrics such as resolution rate, accuracy, quality, handle time, escalation rate, customer satisfaction, time savings, and operational efficiency
- Create practical evaluation methods, test cases, and quality controls to identify workflow failures, edge cases, hallucinations, and unintended customer impact
- Proactively surface opportunities for AI, automation, and systems improvements rather than relying on a backlog of requests
- Maintain clear documentation, runbooks, system logic, and governance practices for the solutions you own
- Stay current on emerging AI and automation capabilities and determine where they can create meaningful operational value
- Provide technical guidance, share context, and help raise the systems-thinking and execution bar across the broader CX Operations team
- 5+ years of experience in operations engineering, automation, technical operations, solutions engineering, CX systems, RevOps, Marketing Ops, Support Ops, or a related discipline
- Demonstrated experience using AI, automation, integrations, or internal tooling to solve meaningful operational problems and ship solutions into real business workflows
- Experience owning complex initiatives independently from problem definition through implementation and measurable outcomes
- Experience partnering effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders across multiple functions
- Strong systems thinking and the ability to translate ambiguous operational problems into clear, scalable solutions
- Practical experience working with REST APIs, webhooks, authentication, JSON, and system integrations
- Strong understanding of modern LLM capabilities, including prompting, tool use, structured outputs, human-in-the-loop workflows, and AI evaluation
- Ability to evaluate AI and automation quality, identify failure modes, and use data to determine what to improve or automate next
- Strong judgment and decision-making, including the ability to assess impact, complexity, risk, and appropriate escalation with incomplete information
- Strong cross-functional communication skills and the ability to speak comfortably with Engineering while translating technical concepts for operational and business stakeholders
- Strong project ownership, prioritization, and follow-through across multiple complex workstreams
- Customer-focused mindset with a deep interest in improving both frontline workflows and the end-customer experience
- Strong understanding of responsible AI practices, including data privacy, access controls, auditability, evaluation, and human escalation
- Experience in customer support, customer operations, or another high-volume operational environment is preferred, but not required

- Experience with RAG, data pipelines, monitoring, logging, version control, or production support practices
- Experience with CX platforms such as Zendesk, Salesforce, Intercom, Ada, Twilio, or similar systems
