Requirements:

  • 1–2 years of experience in customer service and/or contact center support within a financial services or fintech environment
  • Outstanding communication and interpersonal skills, including the ability to explain complex information clearly and professionally
  • Proven ability to handle sensitive or escalated customer conversations with empathy and professionalism
  • Comfortable navigating multiple systems and tools simultaneously (e.g., Salesforce, Vesta, telephony and chat platforms)
  • Demonstrated expertise in time management, effectively prioritizing and balancing competing tasks to meet tight deadlines
  • Impeccable judgment and acute attention to detail
  • ability to identify/anticipate customers’ needs and clarify information
  • Proven track record of excelling in a metric based environment

Nice to have:

  • Financial services industry experience
  • Familiarity with front-line customer support tools and knowledge management platforms
  • Comfort working in high-growth, change-oriented environments where feedback loops are fast and frequent
  • Previous experience providing service for multiple product lines
What we offer:
  • Competitive Compensation (base + bonus & equity)
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage with Health Savings Account contributions from Upstart
  • Generous 401(k) plan with Upstart matching $2 for every $1 contributed, up to $15,000 per year
  • Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP)
  • Life and disability insurance
  • Generous holiday, vacation, sick and safety leave
