The Technical Support Specialist role at Chameleon
Customers trust us with their users’ experience, and we take that seriously – but not everything always goes according to plan. Unexpected issues, edges, and hiccups arise that require some extra attention so that our customers can continue to use Chameleon effectively and smoothly.

That's when our Technical Support Specialists step in. As skilled troubleshooters, they investigate, uncover, explain, resolve, and, most importantly, win back trust.

Because our product operates within our customers' applications, there is a lot of technical sophistication under the hood. Support Specialists often troubleshoot within the intricate connections between Chameleon and various applications.

This role is ideal for someone comfortable in a customer-facing role who enjoys diverse challenges and problem-solving.
