<h3>Key Responsibilities:</h3>
<ul>
  <li><strong>Tooling:</strong> Design, build, and maintain internal tools using Laravel and Laravel Nova.</li>
  <li><strong>AI Integration:</strong> Write real code for Laravel endpoints and functionality that power our AI support tools (like Intercom Fin).</li>
  <li><strong>Automation:</strong> Develop systems and automated workflows that have impact across multiple teams.</li>
  <li><strong>Knowledge Management:</strong> Create and update technical documentation and help articles to empower customers and staff.</li>
  <li><strong>Investigation:</strong> Collaborate with customers and internal teams to diagnose and resolve complex technical issues.</li>
  <li><strong>Collaboration:</strong> Work closely with Product, Engineering, Sales, and Customer Success teams to identify opportunities for improvement.</li>
</ul>

• Customer Focus: A customer-centric mindset and a passion for building tools that improve user experiences.
