What is Hilti?
Hilti is where innovation is improving productivity, safety and sustainability in the global construction industry, and beyond. Where strong customer relationships are creating solutions that build a better future. Where there is pride and a sense of belonging across our 120 locations, carrying right into our lives and homes.

What is Fieldwire?
Fieldwire, a Hilti Group Company, is a San Francisco-based construction management software used on over 1 million projects worldwide. We’re building a Field and Project Management Platform that reflects our obsession with improving the way construction teams work together, providing operational excellence for a $10 Trillion/year industry.
With an exceptional product-market fit, we’re delivering a superior, easy-to-use web and mobile App that’s driven by the voice of our customers. We solve for fluid communication between Office and Field (jobsite) along with real-time coordination of information and labor at-scale for some of the largest projects in the world. Our mobile app has a five-star rating with thousands of customer reviews.
Fieldwire was acquired by Hilti for $300M in November 2021. Firmly aligned with their mission to be the construction industry’s most trusted productivity partner, Fieldwire has already transformed the way thousands of companies across the globe are working together, and we’re growing faster than ever. We are looking for smart, talented people to join our team in France to provide best-in-class service to our rapidly-expanding customer base across the world.
Who are we looking for?
As a Customer Operations & Support Specialist, your objective is to ensure our customers get the most out of Fieldwire by answering their questions about our platform, executing repeatable back office operations tasks to set up premium subscription contracts and accounts, and creating how-to articles and onboarding guides in our customer-facing Knowledgebase. You’ll join a tight-knit team that will challenge you to answer a high volume of questions at the highest level of quality, while systematically improving the usability of our product and support resources. Plugging into innovative systems for issue, feedback, and help content-improvement tracking, you’ll interface directly with our product, engineering, sales, and success, and internal operations teams to champion the voice of the customer and develop new processes, automations, and customer outreach programs.
Reporting to our EU Team Manager of Customer Operations & Support (hybrid, Paris based), you’ll have a wealth of tactical resources to develop your skills in troubleshooting, bug reporting, sales operations, and more. Taking as much pride in “owning the inbox” as setting up new accounts, onboarding new customers, and creating the next great how-to guide that helps us work “smarter, not harder”, your verbal and written communication skills will flourish, if you’re up to the challenge.
If you’re experienced in customer service, developing help content, and/or executing back office operations; passionate about helping people revolutionize how construction projects are managed; and excited to work cross-functionally to solve customer issues at their root causes, we’d love to meet you!
