Requirements
Candidates should have 5+ years of experience in operations, service delivery, customer success, or support, preferably in fintech, compliance, or payroll.

Familiarity with tools like Slack, ChatGPT, Notion, and Zendesk is also beneficial.
Responsibilities
The Service Delivery Specialist will triage and resolve complex partner escalations across payroll, tax, compliance, and money movement, acting as a subject matter expert. They will monitor partner Slack channels, respond with urgency, and provide direct support to early-stage partners. The role involves analyzing escalation trends to identify root causes and recommend improvements, surfacing key themes and risks to leadership, and partnering cross-functionally with Ops, Product, and Engineering to streamline workflows. Additionally, they will take ownership of internal and partner-facing documentation to ensure it remains up-to-date and aligned with evolving processes.
