Customer Support Lead (Farm Management System / Digital Platform)

About the Role 

The Customer Support Lead is responsible for leading the intake, validation, prioritization, and resolution tracking of all incoming customer support tickets related to bugs, system errors, and user questions. 

This role ensures that customer-reported issues are properly documented, reproducible, prioritized by business criticality, and efficiently transferred to the development team.

The role does not own feature requests or roadmap prioritization.

• Ensure customers receive timely updates on high-impact issues. 
• Maintain visibility of open high-priority cases. 

Process Governance & Quality Control 

• Maintain high standards for ticket quality and documentation. 
• Define and improve ticket handling workflows. 
• Establish and maintain severity classification standards.
