PYLON — THE AGENTIC SUPPORT PLATFORM PURPOSE-BUILT FOR B2B.

Pylon is the only agentic support platform, purpose-built for B2B companies. For leaders scaling AI-native support teams, Pylon lets humans and agents collaborate on customer work – investigating, resolving, and acting on every signal across every channel that matters.

Unlike platforms built before the AI era, Pylon enriches every interaction with deep account-level context, automates the low impact customer work, and surfaces answers before your team even has to ask. The result: faster responses, happier customers, and a system that continuously improves itself.

We're backed by a16z, BCV, General Catalyst, and Y Combinator. More than 1,500 companies including Linear, Cognition (makers of Devin), Modal Labs, and Incident.io http://Incident.io run their support and customer success workflows on Pylon. We're also featured on the Enterprise Tech 30 List https://www.enterprisetech30.com/.

What you'll do

  • Within your first 7 days, hand off designs to engineering
  • Dig into and understand customer problems/feedback
  • Collaborate with product and engineering throughout a project (no waterfall here)
  • Navigate both the problem and solution space with cofounders, our PM's, and your peers
  • Communicate differing opinions and make/facilitate constructive decisions
  • Think through the broad user flows for new features
  • Generate high fidelity mocks and think through UI/UX
  • Build up the design system alongside Wendy https://www.linkedin.com/in/wvang/, Ben https://www.linkedin.com/in/imbenstone/, Natasha https://www.linkedin.com/in/natashaputhukudy/ and Oliver https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliverruebener/ and engineering partners
