Position Overview:

We're seeking a proactive and customer-oriented individual to join us as a Customer Success Specialist. This role is a remote position, so you'll have the flexibility to work from anywhere in the United States. 

Most customer support is provided via in-app chat. However, some support is provided via Zoom, such as a welcome call. Our ideal candidate is naturally organized, self-directed, and dedicated to achieving positive outcomes.

There is room for growth and many opportunities to improve the business and make a positive impact. You'll be our first hire and work directly with the co-founders/developers of Check Cherry, who have provided all customer support responsibilities since 2016.


This position requires 8 hours of coverage Monday through Friday during standard business hours. Desired coverage hours will be between 6:00 AM and 3:00 PM Pacific Time. However, there is some flexibility for the right candidate. Pay is $24 per hour. We're open to crafting a work schedule that fits the right person.
