Overview

Sumo is used by over 150,000 websites daily, reaching over 60+ million people. Every month, 1 in 7 people in the world visit a website that uses Sumo and it’s our job to make sure the people behind those sites are taken care of.

There is nothing more important than meeting our customer’s Sumo needs. We’re looking for people who understand this basic principle and want to work somewhere with purpose, under leadership that listens. We provide top notch, around the clock, don’t leave until you’re finished type of service. Every customer we work with is our highest priority and we don’t go home until they are taken care of. Seriously.

The support team is well-respected and has direct access to all other departments at Sumo. Our more technically-inclined agents have direct access to developers, which is a privilege we ensure is not taken for granted. It is our job to ensure every other team can operate unencumbered.

We are the rockstars of SaaS support. Ask anyone at Sumo 🙂
