Job Description

 

Technical Support Specialist

 

Trackunit is a fast-growing company and a leading supplier of IoT solutions, operating out of many offices worldwide. Trackunit specializes in digital solutions that connect machines, people, and systems in the global construction industry. The construction industry is the least digitalized industry of all. This lack of digitalization has left construction far behind a global economy on the rise and placed the industry as one of the least productive industries too.

As a Technical Support Specialist, you are instrumental in delivering a great customer experience, working directly with our customers to make sure they get the most out of our products and services. You also work closely with our Customer Success team, our Commercial team and, our Engineering team who all aim for the same goal: happy and successful customers!

With locations in the hearts of London, ON and Kitchener, ON we offer you a flexible setup with the possibility to work from one of our locations or anywhere in Ontario, Canada.

You are going to work in an environment that is rich in diversity and inclusion, as our team consists of people from different countries and cultures. Cooperation and compassion are our key qualities, so you can be sure we provide you the support you need on this unique career path.

 

What’s in it for you?

  • A place in an agile growth SaaS business, with possibilities to grow internally in the company. We are moving fast, so fasten your seat belt and prepare to be adaptable. Back in 2020 we were 150 employees at Trackunit and we have just passed 440 employees.

We do this by touching upon your impact on our triple focus: impacting yourself, impacting teams/relations and impacting the organisation/strategy.
  • Flexibility and hybrid working is not just a cliché to us or something we state in a job posting. We do offer you a flexible setup and believe that you best can structure how your routines look like. And once you have chosen how you work best, let us know what you need: we got you covered with the IT equipment you need for your work.
  • Turning the Tide. At Trackunit, we are committed to creating and contributing to an inclusive workplace. And this commitment starts with our hiring - we do not discriminate on the basis of gender identity, sexual orientation, personal expression, ethnicity, religious belief, or disability status.
