Job description

Join the Market Leader in Electric Power Data and Analytics Solutions

The electrical grid is the largest and most complicated machine ever built.

Our unique and innovative view of the data informs real-time trading decisions and mid-to-long-term investment decisions that keep utility prices low, support the energy transition, and keep the grid running.

Position Summary

The Manager of Customer Support is a critical leadership role responsible for ensuring that Yes Energy lives up to our brand promise: We promise prompt, friendly, and smart customer support, and are committed to collaborative partnerships with our customers.

As the leader of a fast-paced, highly technical support team, you will manage and coach support professionals at various levels of experience — holding the team accountable to the high standards of quality, responsiveness, and technical depth that differentiate us within the industry. You will set the tone for the team's culture, create individual growth plans, and serve as a mentor and role model.

This role requires the judgment to balance day-to-day people management with hands-on ownership of the most technically demanding customer issues. You will build deep familiarity with our products and, when needed, roll up your sleeves to support the team directly on complex, escalated cases.

Please note that this position requires participation in an on-call rotation schedule, for which additional compensation is provided.
