Come build with us. Join the journey. Shape the future of auto repair.
Working the Tekmetric Way
At Tekmetric, we’re building a culture where winning matters - not for ego, but because when our customers win, we win together.
We move fast, stay curious, and take full ownership of our results — no excuses, no finger-pointing. If you thrive in ambiguity, take initiative, and view honest feedback as fuel for growth, you’ll feel right at home here.
We’re direct but respectful, ambitious yet grounded, and collaborative at every level. Everyone leads through impact and is encouraged to speak up, share ideas, and challenge assumptions (even your manager’s). This is a place for builders, not bystanders.
Success here takes focus, follow-through, and a willingness to roll up your sleeves — but if you’re driven by meaningful work and real results, it’s deeply rewarding. You’ll join a team that cares about the work, supports one another, and takes smart risks to achieve bold goals. Be yourself, stay mission-focused, and you’ll thrive. If that energizes you, we can’t wait to meet you.
At Tekmetric, great work happens anywhere, but great teams are built through intentional connection. We offer hybrid and remote work models based on your proximity to our office hubs. Because we value in-person collaboration, travel is an expected part of every role. We come together several times a year for team and company-wide offsites to align on goals and strengthen relationships. Attendance at these events is expected and fully supported.
The hours for this role are 6am-3pm CT / 7am-4pm ET.
About the Role
We are looking for a Senior Workforce Manager to own the day-to-day execution of workforce management across our voice and chat support channels. This is a senior individual-contributor role focused on forecasting, scheduling, real-time queue and adherence management, and the daily tuning of the systems that keep our support operation running on target.
You will turn strategy into execution. Working from the framework and targets set by the Support Operations Manager — to whom this role reports — you will build the forecasts, own the schedules, manage the queues in real time, and make the daily configuration and AI-monitoring adjustments that protect service levels. This role is built for someone who lives in the data and the dashboards, reacts quickly to intraday swings, and takes pride in hitting SLA day after day.
What You'll Be Doing:
Workforce Management & Scheduling
- Build and maintain staffing forecasts using historical volume, AI deflection trends, and business growth projections
- Create and manage agent schedules across voice and chat channels to meet SLA targets
- Monitor real-time adherence and make intraday adjustments to maintain coverage and service levels
- Track utilization, performance trends, and volume heatmaps along with other WFM KPIs; report findings to the Support Operations Manager
- Support capacity planning efforts for future hiring needs
Real-Time Queue & Channel Management
- Manage live queue performance day to day, within the queue architecture and SLA policies set by the Support Operations Manager
- Make daily adjustments to Zendesk triggers, automations, views, and macros to optimize ticket flow
- Manage chat routing and inbox configuration in Intercom to balance agent workloads in real time
- Apply routing and escalation rules and flag needed changes to the escalation framework
Daily AI Performance Monitoring (Intercom Fin)
- Monitor Fin AI chatbot performance daily against containment, deflection, and CSAT targets
- Review unresolved and escalated AI conversations to identify gaps and recommend improvements to bot flows and intents
- Surface daily and weekly trends in AI performance and feed observations back to inform optimization strategy and potential product gaps or enhancements
- Adjust forecasts as bot performance shifts and flag material changes to the Support Operations Manager
Daily Systems Tuning & Reporting
- Handle daily configuration adjustments across support tools to keep workflows running smoothly
- Maintain WFM-specific dashboards and reporting on schedule adherence, occupancy, and service levels
- Track and report on core KPIs including SLA adherence, AHT, occupancy, and AI containment rate
- Maintain data integrity in scheduling and queue data, escalating systemic issues as needed
Process & Collaboration
- Recommend operational improvements to reduce handle time and improve coverage and deflection
- Maintain WFM scheduling procedures and operational documentation
- Partner with Support Managers and team leads to align staffing with coaching and development needs
- As the function scales, help onboard and mentor future WFM analysts or operations specialists
What You'll Bring:
Required
- 4+ years of experience in workforce management or contact center operations
- Hands-on contact center experience across voice and chat channels
- Demonstrated ability to build and manage workforce forecasts and schedules
- Hands-on experience with real-time queue management and intraday adherence
- Strong proficiency in building dashboards and reports
- Exceptional analytical skills with comfort working across large datasets in Excel, Google Sheets, or SQL
- Experience working with AI chat tools and monitoring their performance
- Strong communication skills with the ability to translate operational data into clear, actionable insights
Preferred
- Hands-on configuration experience with Zendesk (triggers, automations, views, macros) and Intercom (routing, inboxes, Fin)
- Background in SaaS or technology-sector contact centers
