Support Systems Administrator, User Operations

Why Harvey

At Harvey, we’re transforming how legal and professional services operate — not incrementally, but end-to-end. By combining frontier agentic AI, an enterprise-grade platform, and deep domain expertise, we’re reshaping how critical knowledge work gets done for decades to come.

This is a rare chance to help build a generational company at a true inflection point. With 1000+ customers in 60+ countries, strong product-market fit, and world-class investor support, we’re scaling fast and defining a new category in real time. The work is ambitious, the bar is high, and the opportunity for growth — personal, professional, and financial — is unmatched.

Our team is sharp, motivated, and deeply committed to the mission. We move fast, operate with intensity, and take real ownership of the problems we tackle — from early thinking to long-term outcomes. We stay close to our customers — from leadership to engineers — and work together to solve real problems with urgency and care.

If you thrive in ambiguity, push for excellence, and want to help shape the future of work alongside others who raise the bar, we invite you to build with us.

At Harvey, the future of professional services is being written today — and we’re just getting started.

Role Overview

Harvey is expanding into Zendesk as our primary support platform, and we need someone who can hit the ground running and own it end to end. We are looking for a Support Systems Administrator to lead the implementation, configuration, and ongoing maintenance of Zendesk — and to serve as the connective tissue between our support tooling and the rest of the Harvey technology stack.

Reporting to the Support Operations Manager, you will be responsible for making Zendesk work the way our support team needs it to — from routing logic and automation to integrations with our CRM, product data, and internal tools.

You will partner closely with Support leadership, Engineering, and Operations to translate support requirements into functional configurations, and you’ll keep the system evolving as our team, product, and workflows change.

This role is ideal for someone who has deep Zendesk experience, thinks in systems, and takes genuine ownership of the tools their team relies on every day.

What You'll Do

• Own the implementation and configuration of Zendesk as Harvey’s primary support platform, including ticket routing, views, triggers, automations, macros, SLA policies, and agent workspace setup.
• Integrate Zendesk with Harvey’s broader tooling ecosystem — including CRM, product data, internal communication tools, and reporting infrastructure — to ensure a seamless support workflow.
• Partner with Support leadership to translate operational requirements into system configurations; act as the technical translator between what the support team needs and what the tooling can do.
• Maintain system health: monitor performance, manage user permissions and roles, troubleshoot issues, and ensure the platform is reliable and up to date.
• Build and maintain reporting and dashboards within Zendesk that give Support leadership visibility into ticket volume, SLAs, agent performance, and customer trends.
• Evaluate and implement Zendesk apps and add-ons that improve support efficiency, including AI-powered features for triage, suggested responses, and deflection.
• Document system configurations, integration logic, and administrative processes to ensure continuity and support future team members.
• Stay current on Zendesk product updates and proactively identify opportunities to improve the platform as new capabilities become available.

What You Have

• 3+ years of recent hands-on Zendesk administration experience, including configuration of routing, automations, triggers, SLA policies, and agent workspace.
• Experience integrating Zendesk with third-party tools (e.g., Salesforce, Slack, Linear, or similar) and working with APIs or middleware platforms to connect systems.
• Strong technical problem-solving skills — you can diagnose a broken workflow, trace it to its root cause, and fix it without waiting to be told how.
• Familiarity with support operations more broadly — you understand the workflows your configurations are serving and can anticipate how changes will affect the team.
• Experience building reports and dashboards in Zendesk Explore, Omni, or similar BI tools to support operational decision-making.
• Organized and documentation-minded — you keep configurations well-documented and your work easy to hand off or build on.
• Comfortable working cross-functionally with Engineering, Operations, and Support to scope and execute system improvements.
• Bonus: Zendesk certification(s); experience with AI-powered Zendesk features (e.g., Intelligent Triage, suggested replies) or other support AI tooling.
