Description:

At Algolia, we are passionate about helping developers and product teams connect their users with what matters most in milliseconds! Algolia was built to help users deliver an intuitive search-as-you-type experience on their websites and mobile apps. We provide a search API used by thousands of customers in more than 100 countries, handling billions of search queries monthly.
The Developer Support Engineer is a critical role at Algolia. We’re on the front-lines and are often the first team customers contact when they need help with our products or services. We’re looking for a Developer Support Engineer to assist our technical users with implementing Algolia in a variety of web and mobile development technical stacks.
This could mean helping a developer trying to build the next big thing in their garage, or Fortune 500 companies focused on providing a world-class experience to their millions of users.
As a Developer Support Engineer, you will partner with the customer success, product, and engineering teams to find the best solutions for our customers.. We have a hands-on culture, and expect you to roll up your sleeves and get to work solving difficult problems that stand in the way of our customers’ success.

REQUIREMENTS:

  • Strong desire to help people solve problems with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to a broad audience.
  • Experience with web development, REST APIs, and database management.
  • Experience in technical customer support, supporting SaaS enterprise software ideally.
  • Working knowledge of development languages such as JavaScript, Java, PHP, C#, Objective-C, Swift, Ruby, Python.
  • Ability to handle and prioritize a portfolio of tickets at various stages of resolution.
  • Excellent spoken and written English skills.
  • Ability to work in an on-call rotation.

ABOUT US:

Algolia prides itself on being a pioneer and market leader offering an AI Search solution that empowers 17,000+ businesses to compose customer experiences at internet scale that predict what their users want with blazing fast search and web browse experience. Algolia powers more than 30 billion search requests a week – four times more than Microsoft Bing, Yahoo, Baidu, Yandex and DuckDuckGo combined.
Algolia is part of a cadre of innovative new companies that are driving the next generation of software development, creating APIs that make developers’ lives easier; solutions that are better than building from scratch and better than having to tweak monolithic SaaS solutions.
In 2021, the company closed $150 million in series D funding and quadrupled its post-money valuation of $2.25 billion. Being well capitalized enables Algolia to continue to invest in its market leading platform, to better serve its thousands of customers–including Under Armor, Petsmart, Stripe, Gymshark, and Walgreens, to name just a few.

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR:

We’re looking for talented, passionate people to build the world’s best search & discovery technology. As an ownership-driven company, we seek team members who thrive within an environment based on autonomy and diversity. We’re committed to building an inclusive and diverse workplace. We care about each other and the world around us, and embrace talented people regardless of their race, age, ancestry, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, marital status, color, veteran status, disability and socioeconomic background.

Responsibilities:

  • Handling technical requests via web and email support channels.
  • Conducting professional and empathetic conversations with customers to gather information, troubleshoot, and resolve their technical obstacles.
  • Submitting bug reports to the Engineering team for problems needing attention.
  • Partnering with Product Teams and Engineering to develop subject matter expertise and serve as a product expert to the rest of the support team.
