Support Enablement Engineer
New York, NY or Remote
About us
Wheelhouse is a revenue management platform for the $500B+ flex rental space. Our technology empowers short & mid-length stay operators, who manage single-family homes, apartment buildings, and (in some cases) hotels - a broad & massive addressable market. Wheelhouse believes a more flexible & connected world is both inevitable & important, and we build technology to make sure the businesses that enable this lifestyle & society can thrive.
As a team, we enjoy shipping products our customers love, on time or ahead of schedule, while balancing work/life & having fun together. We’re best described as transparent & collaborative, and we strive to set our teammates up for success - both professionally & personally. We’re a remote-first, work-anywhere, and “yes - you should make time for that adventure/vacation” company, who believes that “healthy hustle” is the key to good growth.
Now, we’re looking for a Support Enablement Engineer to sit at the intersection of engineering, customer success, and operations. You’ll play a critical role in ensuring our customers and partners experience a reliable, high-quality product. You’ll investigate issues, debug complex integrations, and either resolve them directly or triage effectively to the right engineers. Over time, you’ll build internal tools and automation that empower our support and account management teams to self-serve for common issues. The longer term goal of this position is to lead the Support Enablement Engineering department, as it grows to support multiple engineers.
This is an excellent role for someone with strong technical skills who enjoys problem-solving, communication, and having a direct impact on customer satisfaction.
Mission and Importance of this Role
We take up a lot of engineering resources by our Bug Czar duty and still don’t manage to cover the perceived persistence of bugs. Integration related bugs are especially cumbersome to track and would benefit from a constant contact person rather than switching weekly. This person can help manage bugs (fixing directly or triaging to the rest of the team), interface with external partners on bugs related to integrations, and eventually build out internal tools to help our support and account management teams investigate small issues themselves.
