About Gorilla
Join us at Gorilla and be part of a mission to transform the energy industry. At Gorilla, you'll play a vital role in delivering cutting-edge data solutions for a lower carbon future. We focus on providing efficient, reliable, and flexible SaaS solutions for data processing and analysis in the energy sector. Together, we're driving digital transformation, maximising ROI for clients, and contributing to achieving net-zero emissions through technology and data-driven insights.
Your Role
We’re looking for a Customer Support Engineer who’s ready to take ownership of customer issues and grow into advanced technical troubleshooting. You’ll be the first to dive into reported problems, reproduce them, and resolve or escalate with clarity. You’ll start with Tier-2 troubleshooting (APIs, product usage, browser tools, light scripting) and steadily build toward handling complex integrations and deep debugging.
This is an opportunity to join a fast-moving SaaS scale-up, make an immediate impact on customer reliability, and expand your skills through real-world problem-solving.
What You’ll Do
Resolve Tier-1 and Tier-2 issues across APIs, product usage, and SaaS workflows
Reproduce and document bugs with clear steps, logs, and customer impact
Escalate cleanly to engineering teams with complete context
Communicate empathetically and proactively with customers, meeting SLAs
Maintain ticket quality in Zendesk and Jira
Spot recurring issues and share insights with Product and Engineering
Contribute to support documentation and knowledge base
Participate in a shared on-call rotation, including evenings and weekends
What Success Looks Like
You consistently meet response and resolution SLAs
Your escalations are structured, clear, and reduce rework for engineering
Customers rate your support 95%+ on CSAT
You independently resolve Tier-2 issues and expand into complex debugging
Within 12–18 months, you’re confidently handling advanced troubleshooting and guiding peers through technical challenges
What We’re Looking For
2+ years in technical support, SaaS, or product operations
Hands-on experience with APIs, browser dev tools, and repro workflows
Familiarity with Python or scripting is a strong plus
Strong written and verbal communication skills
Structured, resilient problem-solver with technical curiosity
Reliable and motivated to take ownership in a high-growth environment
