Why You Will Make an Impact!

Community Vision & Mission

Vision:

Wyze is a customer-oriented IoT lifestyle company seeking to make too-good-to-be-true

products accessible for everyone. The community provides the voice for the customer

and a resource for creativity and support. 

Mission:

Provide an inclusive and safe space for customers to feel empowered to explore and

understand technology. We want to encourage them to learn, share, and connect with

fellow community members and the Wyze team while building trust and communication

between parties.

A Look Inside the Role…

One of the most enduring mottos of Wyze is to be friends with our customers. The

Community Team has a great passion and deep love for our community. We nurture

and form lasting relationships between Wyze and our customers. Many of these

customers become regulars that you will become familiar with over a period of months

to years. 

This team functions as the voice of the customer and passes information

between the community and appropriate Wyze teams. Strong empathy with solid

boundaries are key traits for any person joining this team. Team members will

need the ability to separate acute customer frustration from their perception of the

customer as a whole. Many of our strongest supporters were once unsatisfied

customers needing to be heard. Part of the role is maintaining a platform for customers to

provide feedback that can help Wyze improve our products and services.

The Community Team facilitates communication both externally and internally with

engagement-heavy roles. Our consistent work with different Wyze teams allows us the

scope to facilitate discussion about upcoming projects with aligned or conflicting

directions. Often, the Community Team is in a position to speak about how company

decisions will or have been affecting the community. The ability to analyze trends and

represent them accurately while in multi-department discussions is necessary.

We are looking for people passionate about Wyze’s vision of making smart tech for

everyone and democratizing the industry. The ideal candidate would already have genuine interest in technology and consumer gadgets and feel comfortable using smart tech in their own home (including smart cameras and speakers). The Community Team engages in basic troubleshooting online and all members are required to have at least a basic understanding of how our products are intended to function. This allows them to help resolve issues as well as identify and report bugs.

You already have these qualifications and love what you do!

● Empathy while maintaining boundaries

● Demonstrated response efficiency

● Strong cross-functional communication and collaboration

● Strong ownership of cross-functional projects

● Distinguishing escalation situations

● Prioritizing tasks and delivering timely results

● Ability to perform basic troubleshooting for products and services

● Ability to respond appropriately to social media posts

● Understanding and engaging in community platform culture

● Recognizing community guideline violations

● Maintaining the approved Wyze voice and tone

● Excellent grasp of English with minimal errors

Bonus points if you can say yes to any or all of the following:

● Bachelor’s Degree in Business, Communication, or other relevant fields

● Experience managing community platforms (1+ years of consistent work)

● Contributing to community growth and health initiatives

● Working with and nurturing community volunteers

● Experience mediating conflict between community members

● Prioritizing necessary work during emergencies 

● Responding effectively to major community guideline violations and emergencies

● Analyzing and reporting community metrics

● Experience in beta programs, user surveys, security and privacy

If a candidate has the required skills but not the desired skills, they may be considered for the Digital Community Specialist position with the opportunity to work toward the Digital Community Manager role over time and with the support of the rest of the team.
