About Kikoff

Kikoff's credit building app is the the fastest way to build credit safely, with plans from $5/month. Backed by Lightspeed.

About the role

As a Tier 3 Customer Support Specialist, you will own Kikoff's most complex and sensitive customer escalations — the cases that go beyond what frontline and Tier 2 agents can resolve on their own. This role sits at the intersection of customer empathy and operational excellence. Just as importantly, you will help the broader org improve and scale: auditing ticket quality, documenting resolution paths, and identifying fixes and improvements in our processes.

What they're looking for

  • 2–5 years of experience in customer support, with meaningful time in escalations, complex case management, or a Tier 2/3 role
  • Strong written communication — your case notes, customer responses, and internal escalations are clear, accurate, and defensible
  • High ownership: you follow cases through to resolution and don't let things fall through the cracks
  • Able to work within a structured ops team without needing heavy direction
