Technical Support Specialist
Biktrix Electric BikesJob Description
We’re looking for a Technical Support Specialist to join our Customer Experience team. You’ll be the person customers talk to when their eBike has a problem — by email, chat, phone, and sometimes video call.
Here’s what the job actually looks like day-to-day:
- A customer says “my motor cuts out.” You figure out it’s a brake sensor disconnect (our #1 issue), walk them through repositioning it, and they’re back riding in 15 minutes.
- Someone emails “my display shows error 21.” You know this usually means a cable connection issue, not a broken display. You guide them through checking connectors before shipping a replacement.
- A new owner asks “is there a Biktrix app?” You explain that the display is the primary interface, suggest alternatives for ride tracking, and don’t promise something that doesn’t exist.
- A customer’s crank arm came loose on their FS Pro. You know this is a known issue on that model, treat it as urgent (safety), and get an RMA started quickly.
- Someone panics because their brand-new battery “won’t work.” You calmly ask if they’ve done the initial full charge. They haven’t. Problem solved.
You report to the Customer Experience Manager. The work is fast-paced and can be challenging, but it’s genuinely rewarding — you’re helping people get back on their bikes.
What We’re Looking For
We’re open to fresh graduates and career changers. You don’t need years of experience — you need the right mindset and aptitude. Here’s what matters:
Must-Haves
- Problem-solving brain — you like figuring out why things don’t work. Could be computers, bikes, cars, appliances — anything mechanical or technical.
- Clear communicator — you can explain a fix to someone who isn’t technical, patiently and without jargon.
- Comfortable on the phone — including when the customer is frustrated. You stay calm and helpful.
- Detail-oriented — you follow a process and document what you did. When you fix something, the next person can see how.
- Computer-literate — comfortable with Google Suite, learning new software (we use Gorgias and Shopify), and navigating multiple systems at once.
- You know how to ride a bike. (Seriously. It helps.)
Nice-to-Haves (not required)
- Experience with eBikes, bicycles, or any mechanical/electrical repair.
- Previous customer service or tech support experience (phone, chat, email).
- Bilingual English/French.
- Experience with Gorgias, Shopify, or similar platforms.
- You’ve taken apart something just to see how it works.
