The Customer Success Guru role challenges and supports you, so that you can help empower entrepreneurs around the world. You will be supporting English and French Merchants through live chats, phone calls, and emails. Working remotely allows you to join a growing tech company, without relocating. Although we’re spread across various countries and timezones, it doesn’t feel like it. We’ve invested in small teams, so you have the personal connections and tools to thrive in your role here. After all, we help businesses thrive and grow, so we want you too as well!


A few more details:


We keep it real - It’s not just tech support, it’s people support. It won’t always be easy, but if you're resourceful, ask questions, and enjoy having genuine human conversations, you may have just found your dream team.


We’re remote first - Working remotely with Shopify makes it possible to be part of a growing tech company, without relocating. Do fulfilling work, make a real impact, and own your role with the Shopify Support Team from the comfort of your home.


We’re business coaches - We don’t just solve problems, we help businesses grow and thrive. Our team doesn’t do pushy sales, but we do strive for needs based sales solutions to help merchants get on the right Shopify plan to scale their business and succeed.

We work together - We may not be in the same cities, but we act like it. We’ve invested in small remote teams and strong communication tools to ensure you have the resources to succeed in your role at Shopify --- no matter what city you are in!

  • Have a huge impact on merchant businesses and lives.
  • Learn how to run your own store first hand.

Additional Notes:


If we'd like to move you to the next phase of the interview process, we'll be inviting you to our interview process to get to know you for about 30 minutes. If you are selected to move forward to the second phase of the interview process, you will receive an email asking you to book a date and time to complete the  Gauntlet interview where you'll be required to jump into a role-playing exercise with one of our team members from our Talent Growth team. We highly recommend if you receive an invite to interview at Shopify that you sign-up for a free 14-day trial and create an online store to familiarize yourself with the platform as preparation for the Gauntlet.
