About Boppo
Boppo is building an interactive play platform for kids with our sold-out screen-free tablet. After successfully launching in November 2025, we’re ready to grow the marketing team and scale. We’re a product-led, content-driven brand at an exciting inflection point, moving from early traction into meaningful growth, passionate about bringing families together for learning and fun.
The Role
We’re looking for a Fractional Customer Support Lead to design and manage a scalable CS function reflective of our brand and the trust families instill in Boppo.
This is a hands-on, strategic role for someone who’s built or led customer support at a growing DTC or consumer brand. You’ll own the CS function end-to-end: systems, tone, workflows, metrics, and day-to-day execution.
This role starts as fractional, with the opportunity to increase hours and grow into a larger leadership role we grow.
What You’ll Do
-
Own Boppo’s customer support experience across email, site, and social
-
Build and oversee AI chatbots
-
Manage part-time customer service agents
-
Handle and triage more complex customer inquiries
-
Create and refine macros, templates, and escalation workflows
-
Define CS tone of voice that aligns with the brand
-
Partner with marketing, ops, and product to flag recurring issues and customer insights
-
Build lightweight reporting on volume, response time, CSAT, and issue trends
-
Prepare the CS function to scale (handoffs, hiring plan, documentation)
-
Help decide when and how to add additional support coverage or tools
-
Maintain and own updates for scripting, knowledge-base, and FAQs
What We’re Looking For
-
4–10+ years of experience in customer support or CX, ideally in DTC, consumer goods, or startups
-
Experience owning CS at an early or growth stage business, building the systems that support the function internally
-
Strong judgment and empathy when handling parent and family concerns
-
Comfortable working independently and making decisions without heavy process
-
Organized, systems-minded, and calm under pressure
-
Clear communicator who can collaborate cross-functionally
-
Excited by fractional work with a path to expansion
Nice to Have
-
Experience with kids, family, or education brands
-
Familiarity with tools like Gorgias, Zendesk, Intercom, Help Scout, or similar
-
Light ops or fulfillment partnership experience
