What is good to know:

This role offers meaningful growth opportunities within a team structure that recognizes and rewards technical development and career progression.

Key Areas of Focus

• Own the Customer Experience: Takes accountability for every case from first contact to resolution — communicating proactively, setting clear expectations, and following through until the customer is fully back on track.
• Master the Product: Builds deep familiarity with Illumia's POS and mobile ordering ecosystem, including integrations, hardware dependencies, and common failure patterns, to resolve issues faster and more effectively over time.
• Document and Share: Treats knowledge as a team asset — captures what's learned from every complex case and contributes to a knowledge base that makes the whole team stronger.
• Drive, Curiosity, and Judgment: Asks the right questions, digs past symptoms to root cause, and knows when to escalate versus when to keep troubleshooting independently.

Competencies and Behaviors

• Humble: The best teammates at Illumia don't need to own the spotlight — they share credit, celebrate the wins of those around them, and are quick to ask for help when they need it. This is a company that still writes its story, and the people who thrive here find energy in being part of something bigger than themselves.
• Hungry: We are not looking for people who just close tickets. We are looking for people who are genuinely curious about how things work, motivated to build their skills and knowledge over time, and who take pride in getting to the right answer — not just the fastest one.
• Smart: At Illumia, our team members operate across a complex organization serving thousands of customers with diverse needs and competing priorities. Technical aptitude matters, but so does knowing when to ask questions, when to escalate, and how to communicate clearly with customers who may be frustrated or under pressure. The people who thrive here combine curiosity with good judgment — and understand that how you help someone is just as important as whether you solved the problem.

This position is classified as Non-Exempt under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and applicable state wage-and-hour laws.

What you get when you join our team:

• Flexible time off to include paid holidays and volunteer time.
• Robust health, dental, and vision insurance plans on your first day of employment.

• Matched 401(k).
• Employee stock purchase plan.
