Full Job Posting

  • You oversee the Customer Support function. You run renter support end-to-end and set the standard for how it works, rather than handling a single ticket lane within a large team.
  • Three brands, one seat. You'll support Apartment List, Kaleno, and Sunny — building and adapting support as new brands come online.
  • You own the AI, not just the tickets. You'll maintain, tune, and retrain our AI support automations, shaping how support scales.
  • Real ownership, real runway. High autonomy from day one, with room to improve and grow the customer service function.
  • Oversee the day-to-day renter support experience across all three brands — email, social, and public review channels.
  • Administer and optimize Zendesk (macros, routing, workflows) and run regular audits to keep support fast and consistent.
  • Maintain and tune our AI support automations, monitoring performance and retraining as needed.
  • Turn ticket themes and trends into better macros, workflows, and documentation, surfacing bugs and recommendations to Product, Engineering, and other partners.
  • Keep SOPs and Help Center content current across brands, and help stand up support structures for new brands as they launch.
  • Handle complex, sensitive, and urgent issues — including scam-listing removals, legal escalations, and data and privacy requests.
  • Coordinate coverage with our contract support agent, and own core support metrics (response time, CSAT).
  • 2–5 years in customer support, ideally spanning both frontline work and the systems behind it.
  • Hands-on Zendesk administration (macros, routing, workflows).
  • Comfort maintaining or learning AI support tools and automations.
  • A process-builder's instinct for documenting, improving, and scaling workflows.
  • Clear, empathetic writing and a proactive eye that catches renter issues before they escalate.
  • Comfort operating independently across multiple brands in a fast-paced, remote environment.
  • Familiarity with tools such as Jira, Iterable, or CRMs is a plus but not required.
  • Zone 1: $86,281 - $ 104,615 base salary + equity
  • Zone 2: $79,810 - $ 96,769 base salary + equity
  • Zone 3: $ 73,338 - $ 88,923 base salary + equity
  • Competitive Compensation: Including annual salary, pre-IPO stock options, and other financial compensation (if applicable)
  • Medical, Dental, and Vision Coverage: 100% of premiums covered for you AND all of your dependents
  • Unlimited Flexible Time Off: Unlimited FTO in addition to 12 company holidays per year, quarterly “recharge” days, and a week-long holiday break
  • Home Office Reimbursement: To cover home office furniture and supplies, monthly home internet, and monthly cell phone (if applicable)
  • Health & Wellness Reimbursement: To cover monthly gym membership or other qualifying expenses
  • Parental Support: Generous parental and family leave, fertility benefits, and employer-sponsored stipends towards family forming services
  • 401k Plan: To support you in your individual retirement goals
  • Team Events: Frequent team-building events, fun team off-sites, and bi-annual company meetups
  • Commitment to DEI: To prioritize Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion within our workplace and to stay true to our values and mission
  • Mentorship and Training: To get you onboard quickly, learn new professional skills, and invest in your career development
  • Impact and Visibility: To expose you to and provide the opportunity to work on highly strategic initiatives that will transform the business
  • Encouragement and Empowerment: To explore and adopt new technologies and drive meaningful decisions and outcomes
  • At Apartment List we believe that everyone deserves a home they love AND a career they love. We strive to build a diverse team that is a reflection of the people we serve; this is made possible through our commitment to fostering a culture of diversity, inclusion, equity, and connectedness.
