Technical Support Manager
Promenade is looking for a Technical Support Manager to lead a team responsible for high-touch escalations across our software suite. This is a player-coach role for someone who can move comfortably between operational leadership, deep technical troubleshooting, hands-on data work, and customer conversations.
The ideal candidate is equally comfortable meeting with a client to resolve issues, partnering with leadership to implement meaningful metrics and improve how teams work together, using New Relic to investigate application issues and working in Excel to validate and clean data for import.

This includes working directly with customer data during migrations and imports, helping ensure a smooth transition onto the Promenade platform.
