О роли

The Support Foundations team builds the infrastructure that powers every support interaction a Chime member has. That includes the automated phone system members call when they need help, the in-app chatbot that answers questions instantly, live chat with human agents, and the data and routing systems that make it all work reliably.

Our mission is to give members a personalized, automated, and always-available support experience. We measure success by how members rate their support interactions — so when our systems work well, members feel it directly.

Right now, we're rebuilding this platform from the ground up. We're modernizing our contact center infrastructure, shipping AI-powered features like automated conversation summarization and intelligent self-service, and establishing the data foundations that improves routing accuracy and support quality at scale.

We work closely with Product, Conversational Design, and Operations teams to shape what the future of member support looks like.

The base salary offered for this role and level of experience will begin at $133,000.00 and up to $184,000.00. Full-time employees are also eligible for a bonus, competitive equity package, and benefits. The actual base salary offered may be higher, depending on your location, skills, qualifications, and experience.

What you'll work on

Contact center platform — Build and own the systems that handle voice calls, live chat, and agent routing. You'll work on the next generation of this infrastructure as we modernize it end-to-end.
AI-powered self-service tools — Develop conversational flows that help members resolve issues in real time.You'll integrate LLMs and build the logic that decides when to deflect, escalate, or hand off.
Call and chat summarization — Ship features that automatically summarize interactions in real time. This reduces work for agents and improves the quality of every support conversation.
Agent provisioning — Design the systems that onboard agents, assign skills, and ensure they're routed to the right contacts. This is foundational work that affects routing accuracy across the entire support org.
IVR and authentication — Build the phone flows that authenticate members before connecting them to agents. These systems handle sensitive moments and need to be fast, secure, and reliable.
Data and observability — Build pipelines and models that give the team visibility into routing quality, resolution rates, and operational health.
