Job Description

Intercom is the AI Customer Service company on a mission to help businesses provide incredible customer experiences.

Our AI agent Fin, the most advanced customer service AI agent on the market, lets businesses deliver always-on, impeccable customer service and ultimately transform their customer experiences for the better. Fin can also be combined with our Helpdesk to become a complete solution called the Intercom Customer Service Suite, which provides AI enhanced support for the more complex or high touch queries that require a human agent.

Founded in 2011 and trusted by nearly 30,000 global businesses, Intercom is setting the new standard for customer service. Driven by our core values, we push boundaries, build with speed and intensity, and consistently deliver incredible value to our customers.

What's the opportunity?

You will be responsible for architecting and delivering a high-scale, AI-native platform that transforms our Go-To-Market operations. By collaborating with data science, infrastructure, and GTM teams, you will execute a "build and buy" strategy to replace our legacy SaaS toolchains and manual heuristics with bespoke AI agents and automated workflows. This role demands a blend of technical leadership and operational rigor, transitioning incubated projects into production-ready solutions while maintaining excellence through robust monitoring, metrics, and support. Ultimately, you will build mission-critical tools that our top GTM operatives rely on to achieve their strategic goals.
