Product Support Specialist, Thinkific

• Loves working with a small team with challenging goals
• Has a high degree of emotional intelligence and can successfully work with high value and escalated customers
• Is an independent problem solver. They don’t give up when they don’t know the answer immediately and while they rarely run into a roadblock they can't creatively get around, they're humble enough to ask for help whenever they need it
• Has experience troubleshooting software-related issues across common browsers and is technically savvy— constantly staying up to date by quickly learning the ins and outs of different platforms and apps
• Loves to learn and grow. They’ve found (and keep looking for) ways to level up their skills in this field, whether that’s through formal education, gaining professional experience, or maybe even building their own business
