We’re passionate about helping every company we work with become more effective—and, through that, raising the region’s competitiveness. We’re ~400 people, backed by Notable Capital, Coatue, Kaszek, monashees, DST Global, ICONIQ, General Catalyst and Goldman Sachs, among others.
What you'll do
We're looking for a Customer Happiness Associate to support our mission of delivering a seamless, human, and high-quality customer experience. You’ll be the voice of Clara to our customers, solving complex issues with empathy and ownership. This role is key to helping us build long-term trust with our B2B clients in Brazil, especially during critical or escalated situations.
You'll work closely with other Customer Happiness team members, as well as cross-functional teams like Product, Engineering, and Operations. Your shift will be from 08:00 to 17:00 (BRT), helping us support customers across different time zones and urgent issues.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Handling and resolving escalated customer inquiries via email, chat, and phone.
- Investigating problems thoroughly and documenting findings clearly in our internal tools.
- Proactively reaching out to customers to provide solutions and support, including follow-up calls as needed.
- Offering thoughtful options to customers considering cancelling or reducing their usage, always with a focus on long-term retention.
- Identifying and proposing improvements to our processes based on customer feedback.
- Acting as a calm, empathetic, and clear communicator—even in high-pressure or complex situations.
- Delivering support with a high bar for quality and excellence, always prioritizing the customer's needs.
- Managing multiple tickets and priorities at once with strong organization and attention to detail.

Where we work
