Carbon Technical Partner
About the Role
The Customer Support team tackles some of the most challenging and complex technical problems - spanning from hardware to software to chemistry - ensuring that customers not only love our products but also succeed with them. We are accountable for resolving critical issues, often under high-pressure conditions, and ensuring customers have a positive experience with Carbon. Carbon Technical Partners are technical problem-solvers and advocates for the customer, managing all aspects of customer support while driving the successful adoption and utilization of Carbon’s innovative products.
In this role, you will need to carefully listen to customer concerns, rapidly learn new technologies, and respond with expert-level solutions across a broad spectrum of industries and technical disciplines.

We are looking for an individual who is a quick learner, passionate about helping customers adopt new technology, and focused on helping our customers be successful with Digital Light Synthesis (DLS).
