  • Prioritize and triage incoming requests based on client impact and urgency
  • Escalate complex or high-impact issues to the Team Lead or Senior WCS per the escalation guide

Webstore Content & Configuration

  • Update product information, pricing, images, categories, and site navigation across client webstores
  • Apply store property flags and configuration settings that control store behavior
  • Use Photoshop and Illustrator to create or modify product images and banner graphics as needed

Client & Team Collaboration

  • Communicate professionally with internal stakeholders and client teams regarding issue status and resolution
  • Partner with Program Implementation and Program Operations teams on new store launches and configuration changes
  • Contribute to team documentation, runbooks, and knowledge base articles in Confluence
  • Participate in team training sessions and share resolution knowledge with peers
  • Perform other duties as assigned
Requirements:
  • High school diploma or equivalent required; Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree in a related field preferred
  • Minimum 2 years of experience in webstore support, ecommerce operations, or a technical helpdesk/customer support role
  • Experience working with web-based platforms, content management systems, or ecommerce solutions required
  • Familiarity with ticketing systems (Jira, Zendesk, or equivalent) strongly preferred
  • Previous experience with Shopify, Magento, or similar multi-store platforms a plus

Technical Skills

  • Working knowledge of ecommerce platforms, store configuration, and backend administration
  • Ability to interpret and act on store property settings, product flags, and configuration files
  • Proficiency with Jira Service Management or equivalent ticketing/workflow tools
  • Comfort navigating admin backend systems and performing diagnostic lookups
  • Basic proficiency in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator for image creation and editing
  • Familiarity with Microsoft Office 365 (Outlook, Teams, Excel, SharePoint)
  • Exposure to SQL or database query tools a plus (used for order/customer data lookups)

Professional Skills

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills — ability to identify root causes, not just symptoms
  • Clear written and verbal communication, including the ability to explain technical issues to non-technical stakeholders
  • Excellent time management and ability to manage multiple open tickets simultaneously
  • Detail-oriented with a commitment to accurate documentation and thorough follow-through
  • Adaptable and effective under deadline pressure; able to shift priorities based on client impact
