This is an indispensable role with us, so we’ll be looking for you to have examples of when you’ve tackled these challenges throughout your career. We’ve laid out the experience we think is important to set you up for success in this role. But, we appreciate that different humans will solve problems in different ways, so we don’t expect you to fit exactly in a box of requirements

Your experience:

Significant experience telling a clear story with complex subject matter.
You have worked closely with engineering teams and can speak to times you built close relationships with engineers and other technical stakeholders.
You have progressed beyond completing projects and represent a perspective on how to best lay out, organize, and communicate highly technical information.
Experience working directly with scripts, apps, APIs, and software tools and technologies is a huge plus for us.

Challenge: Establish the documentation standards to enable best in class customer support documentation to help make Loop’s merchants successful.

You should be intellectually curious, and always be on the lookout for opportunities to learn, grow and level up.
You should have a strong excellence reflex and bias for action. You leave things better than you find them, and don’t wait for permission to address real problems.
You feel a strong sense of ownership over your work, where it’s going and why it’s important.
You can appreciate the balance between collaboration, consensus, and empathy, yet understand that sometimes there needs to be a bias for action based decision making that you must align yourself with.

You can speak to the times in your career when you experienced rapid growth, know your learning style well, and how to maximize what you get out of each project you take on.
You have examples of having crucial conversations, such as giving feedback to a boss, customer, or peer, or admitting a mistake with humility and vulnerability.
You can speak to the times you left things better than you found them, and negotiated with your team and stakeholders over doing things differently and how it helped.
You have examples of times when a team decision didn’t go the way you wanted, but you still were able to fully commit to the direction and drive progress.
You know what it’s like to stretch yourself beyond what you think you can do, and have stories to share about when you went beyond and succeeded and when you tried and failed.

In a perfect world, Loop wouldn't exist. If we had our way, we'd live in a world where we're mindful about how we consume, we love every product we own, and we sharevalues with the brands who create them. In reality, commerce isn't perfect and often breaks. Loop creates secondchances.

We're starting by revolutionizing the post-purchase experience. We've taken one of the most fragile commerce interactions - returns - and turned it into something consumers actually love, and that deepens our connection to brands and products.

We take connection seriously on the inside, too. We're building a work experience that allows you to Be A Human First and prioritizes empathy and wellbeing. We view Loop as a special place in your career to shape the future of an industry and become a better person while doing it. You can grow faster here in a shorter amount of time - we'll give you space and trust you to fill it.
