Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Miter is a vertical software company helping construction and field services contractors manage HR, finance, and operations through AI and embedded payments. The Associate Customer Support Specialist will serve as the first line of defense for customers, resolving Tier 1 issues across payroll, taxes, HR, and benefits while developing product expertise and progressing toward an L2 Specialist track.
Responsibilities
- Work the general support queue, resolving Tier 1 cases across payroll, taxes, HR, and benefits for Miter's customer base
- Ramp quickly on Miter's product, ticketing tools, and knowledge base — shadowing Specialists early, then resolving tickets independently within weeks
- Use troubleshooting frameworks and internal resources to diagnose issues, ask the right clarifying questions, and deliver clear, empathetic responses
- Stay with the ticket: follow up proactively, loop in Specialists when needed, and make sure nothing falls through the cracks
- Develop a product specialization over time, contributing to team SLAs and handling 60–70% of assigned tickets without escalation by month two
Skills

- Track record of ramping quickly on a complex product or domain — whether through school, a prior job, or otherwise
- Comfortable in a fast-paced, ticket- or queue-driven environment; able to manage multiple open cases without dropping the ball
- Proficient navigating modern SaaS tools; able to learn a new product deeply within weeks, not months
- Comfortable using a help desk / ticketing system (Pylon, Zendesk, Intercom, Front, or similar)
- Can follow a troubleshooting framework and use a knowledge base to diagnose issues independently
- Coachable: takes feedback well and asks for help before getting stuck
- High ownership: stays with the ticket, follows up proactively, doesn't let things drop
- Empathetic and patient with frustrated customers, including those under real time pressure
- Curious about the construction industry and the operational reality of our customers
