  • Look for opportunities to drive efficiency through scaled Support channels, and work with cross functional partners to evolve processes and practices
  • Define workflows and playbooks for how Support operates within Watershed and customer journeys
  • Serve as a key part of the voice of the customer, championing customer needs and feedback into the organization to influence product and service roadmaps

FAQ

Where does Watershed work?

We have hub offices in San Francisco, New York and London, and some remote team members in the US and EU. Most of our jobs need to be in San Francisco / New York / London, but certain jobs are open to being remote and will be specifically noted on the jobs page and in the job description.

What’s the interview process like?

It starts the same for every candidate: getting to know the team members through 1 to 2 conversations about Watershed, your experience, and your interests. Next steps can vary by role, but usual next steps are a skill or experience screen (e.g. a coding interview for an engineer, a portfolio review for a designer, deeper experience call for other roles) which leads to a virtual or in person interview panel after that if the screens go well. We prioritize transparency and lack of surprise throughout the process.
