About the Team

As a member of the Technical Support Engineering Team, we are the front line at Outreach who interact with more customers than anyone else in the company. We are the face of Outreach and own that we are the voice of the customer. We are driven to recognize patterns and champion results - whether they be process updates, product investments or training for our own team. But every pattern begins with one conversation - and we have the commitment, empathy, urgency and expertise to meet every interaction with the respect everyone deserves.

The Role
