Come join us and help shape a safer, simpler digital future.

As the Manager, Quality Assurance within Customer Support, you will play a key role in shaping how we measure, maintain, and improve the quality of our customer experience across every support interaction. You’ll lead the evolution of our QA program, helping define the frameworks, processes, and operational strategies that enable our teams to deliver consistent, high-quality support at scale. By leveraging AI-powered QA tooling, you’ll surface actionable insights, identify emerging themes, and help drive continuous improvements in support quality and team performance.

Our QA program is still in its early stages, with foundational processes already in place but significant opportunity to iterate, expand, and mature the function over time. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in evolving environments and is excited by the opportunity to help shape a modern QA program while balancing strategic ownership with hands-on execution.

Reporting into Customer Support leadership, you will partner closely with Support Operations, frontline leaders, Enablement, Product, and other cross-functional teams to identify opportunities for operational improvement, coaching, and quality enhancements across the customer journey. You’ll help establish scalable QA methodologies, calibration practices, reporting structures, and feedback loops that drive accountability and continuous improvement throughout the organization.

In this role, you’ll also help shape how QA supports AI-powered customer experiences. As AI-assisted workflows and responses continue to evolve, you’ll evaluate both human and AI-generated customer interactions to ensure quality, consistency, accuracy, and alignment with the customer experience we aim to deliver. Your ability to identify trends, uncover friction points, and drive targeted quality initiatives will directly influence both team effectiveness and customer experience.

This role has the potential to evolve into direct people leadership of QA specialists or QA team leads as the function grows.

How we’re using AI today
Across GTM, we’re transforming the way we work with AI. We expect every seller, CSM, and team member to become a power user, using it daily to work smarter and move faster. AI is already embedded in how we operate – from real-time coaching that sharpens how we sell and interact with customers, to surfacing insights that help us anticipate needs – creating more time for meaningful customer engagement. If you’re excited to reshape how you think, make decisions, and drive growth with AI, you’ll feel right at home here.

• Partner with Support Operations and frontline leadership to translate QA insights into actionable recommendations, operational improvements, and ongoing training opportunities.

• Evaluate both team member and AI-generated customer interactions to ensure responses are accurate, effective, compliant, and aligned with quality standards and brand expectations.
