Join us as a Customer Service Agent for Email, Chat, and Voice Support!


In this Full-Time employee role, you’ll support an innovative, All-American electric vehicle startup where you’ll create the initial personal interaction customers have with the company, setting the tone for their perception and expectations of their future interactions and experience.

All of this should lead to deeper loyalty and customer retention.
