Product Support Analyst, EDI & API
Orderful | $73,000 - $92,000
Steph's Notes:
Another first I think with this company: we also have access to a frontline role job description in addition to Director and VP-level roles. Pretty cool!
This JD has the same problems are the Director role: weirdly tiny font and an unintentionally amusing Why work with Orderful section. (Also, I think maybe the font fully changes for some of the bullet points later in the JD?)
As a Product Support Analyst, youβll bridge the gap between modern API technology and global supply chain standards.
I genuinely do not know what this is supposed to mean.
You will triage and resolve technical questions through our ticketing system, acting as a subject matter expert for our cloud-based EDI platform. Your mission is to deliver fast, accurate support while building the knowledge base to help our support scale.
This, however, is a great, straightforward description of the role.
To support close collaboration with our EU partners, this role works a 4:00 AMβ1:00 PM ET schedule. These hours are a core part of the role, so we encourage candidates to consider their ability to commit before applying.
I think it's good they're upfront about the schedule expectations, although I'm curious why they don't just hire someone in an EU time zone. I get that a lot of startups don't have the tax setup/hiring infrastructure to do that yet, but like...Deel exists (for better or worse).
Unusually, we do get comp for this IC role and not for the senior ones:
The pay range for this role is: 73,000 - 92,000 USD per year (Remote (United States))
But given the unusual schedule expectations and the very specific technical skills and experience required for this role, that salary range is not great. I mean, with the poor job market, they'll probably be able to hire someone at that comp, but yeah. I'm not impressed. Tread Carefully.
