• Deliver proactive outreach (health checks, release briefings, configuration reviews) to ensure customers are optimizing Lighthouse solutions.
• Coordinate across internal teams (Support, Engineering, Product, Customer Success) to drive resolution and accountability for customer issues.
• Document customer environments, integrations, and workflows to maintain context for faster support and troubleshooting.
• Lead post-incident retrospectives, ensuring incidents are documented and lessons learned are applied to prevent recurrence.
• Advocate for customer needs internally, ensuring feedback is heard and considered in roadmap and support process improvements.
• Act as a trusted advisor, ensuring the customer receives consistent, high-quality technical engagement.

Technical Enablement & Knowledge Management

• Develop and deliver advanced technical documentation, diagnostic playbooks, and best practices for the Customer Care team.
• Collaborate with Product, PIM, and Engineering teams on product release readiness, ensuring support teams are enabled.
• Identify knowledge gaps within support processes and lead initiatives to improve diagnostic capabilities, issue triage, and resolution workflows.

Automations & Process Improvements

• Partner with Engineering and Product teams to design and implement automation initiatives that streamline diagnosis and resolution.
• Contribute to building self-service capabilities (e.g., diagnostic tools, knowledge base articles, customer troubleshooting guides) for customers and Tier 1/2 support teams.

Qualifications

• 510+ years in technical account management, support engineering, or similar roles, ideally in SaaS, hospitality tech, or enterprise software environments.
• Proven track record of handling high-severity technical incidents and serving as an escalation point.
• Strong technical foundation across APIs, integrations, infrastructure, and application troubleshooting.
• Exceptional communication skills with ability to explain technical concepts to both executive and technical stakeholders.
