About the role

Manage customer support inquiries via phone/screenshare and email (about a 50/50 split), ensuring accurate, timely and efficient resolution of payroll, tax, HR, benefits and general platform issues. Dig into complex, multi-step issues: figure out what broke, why, and what the customer needs to do next, then explain it in plain human language. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • 2+ years supporting payroll customers or processing payroll directly, at a payroll provider, PEO, HR tech, or accounting firm
  • Working knowledge of payroll tax: federal and state withholding, SUI/SUTA, 941s, W-2s and W-2cs, amendments, and what happens when a filing goes wrong
  • Comfort with the messy stuff: garnishments, multi-state withholding and reciprocity, pre- and post-tax deductions, off-cycle and correction payrolls
  • At least one year-end and tax season under your belt
  • You pride yourself in being organized and having clean queue hygiene. No cases slip through the cracks, you set expectations with customers, and over-communicate
  • Strong troubleshooting instincts: the ability to learn software you've never seen before and work out what's going on without a script
More about this role

At Miter, we’re on a mission to help construction contractors build with confidence. If we’re successful, we’ll make it easier and faster to build critical physical infrastructure - roads, bridges, utilities, data centers, housing, etc.

For decades, construction and field services contractors have had to run their businesses on outdated software: clunky, on-premise systems created in the 1980s and 1990s.

That’s where Miter comes in. We’re using AI and embedded payments to rebuild the core HR, finance, and operations systems that underpin our physical economy. Using Miter, contractors like Marathon Electrical , W.J. O’Neil , and Truebeck Construction are building stronger teams, controlling job costs, and accelerating jobsite execution.

This idea is resonating. Since we launched in 2021, we’ve grown to thousands of customers and tens of millions in ARR, making us one of the fastest growing vertical software companies ever. To double-down on our momentum, we’ve raised $78M+ from top investors (Bessemer, Coatue, and Battery) who share our belief that we’re just getting started.
