Internship Details

Duration: 3 months

Start Date: Immediate

Location: Remote

Stipend: None initially. Based on your first-quarter performance, you may be offered a paid full-time opportunity, or even be absorbed directly by the client as an FTE.

Key Responsibilities & Core Projects

You will manage the full lifecycle of support issues, from initial report to final resolution, focusing on user enablement.

• Technical Troubleshooting: Provide Tier 1 and Tier 2 technical support, rapidly diagnosing and resolving platform issues for e-commerce transactions, B2B portal access, and internal application functions (e.g., inventory display issues, order processing errors).

• Client Onboarding & Training: Conduct technical onboarding sessions for new B2B clients and internal teams, ensuring they effectively utilize the platform's features, especially complex domain modules like the OMS and WMS.

• Ticket Management: Manage the support queue in our internal ServiceNow-like system, ensuring all support tickets adhere to defined SLAs and maintain comprehensive documentation of troubleshooting steps and resolutions.

• Escalation and Feedback: Act as the liaison between users and the engineering teams. Accurately document and escalate complex bugs/feature requests (e.g., performance issues, compliance gaps) and verify fixes before closing tickets.

• Customer Feedback Loop: Proactively gather customer feedback and usage insights to inform product roadmaps, documentation improvements, and service training materials.

Required Technologies & Tools

Candidates should be technically adept with experience in troubleshooting web applications and using support platforms:

• Application Troubleshooting: Proficiency in debugging web application issues (using browser developer tools) and understanding API communication flows.

• Support Systems: Experience managing complex ticketing systems (ServiceNow, Jira Service Desk, etc.).

• Platform Familiarity: Basic ability to interpret logs from the observability stack (Grafana/Loki) to aid in initial diagnosis.

• Domain Focus: Strong ability to quickly learn and articulate complex supply chain concepts (MES $\rightarrow$ WMS $\rightarrow$ OMS).

AI Agent Focus

You will interact with and help support the AI tools used for customer service.

• Agent QA: Provide feedback and troubleshooting for the AI customer support agents, identifying instances where the LLM-powered tools fail or provide inaccurate information.

• Knowledge Base Curation: Contribute to maintaining and structuring the knowledge base that feeds the AI agents, improving their accuracy and effectiveness.

Success Metrics & Career Path

Performance will be measured by:

• Resolution Time (MTTR): Achievement of defined SLAs for initial response and Mean Time To Resolution (MTTR).

• Customer Satisfaction (CSAT): High customer satisfaction scores based on ticket resolution quality.

• Escalation Quality: Quality and completeness of documentation for bugs and feature requests escalated to engineering.

Mentorship Structure: Reports to the Customer Success Manager or Engineering Lead, working closely with the development teams to understand and communicate technical resolutions.
