Summary
Mechanical Orchard is hiring a Head of Product Support to join their Customer Support team. Mechanical Orchard is reinventing how the world’s most critical software gets modernized. Key skills: AI.
About the role
Mechanical Orchard is reinventing how the world’s most critical software gets modernized. We’re an applied AI company focused on one of the hardest problems in enterprise technology: rewriting complex legacy systems in a way that is provably correct, low risk, and fast enough to matter. By focusing on system behavior rather than code alone, we turn modernization from a high-stakes, failure-prone effort into a repeatable, confidence-building process that unlocks ongoing innovation.
Joining Mechanical Orchard means working on problems that truly matter—to our customers, their businesses, and the people who rely on these systems every day. We’re building technology and methodology that challenge long-standing industry assumptions, prioritizing proof over promises and progress over theatrics. If you care deeply about quality, rigor, and doing the right thing—even when it’s hard—you’ll find your people here.
About the Role
We’re hiring a Head of Product Support to build, scale, and lead a world-class Product Support organization.
This is a strategic leadership role responsible for the full support experience across our product offering. You will define our support vision, build the systems and teams that deliver it, and partner closely with Product, Engineering, Delivery, and Sales to ensure customers experience Mechanical Orchard as reliable, responsive, and deeply technical.
You will operate at the intersection of customer experience, product excellence, and operational rigor — shaping how customers interact with our technology and influencing what we build next.
This role may be hired at the Senior Manager or Director level, depending on the candidate’s experience, leadership scope, and demonstrated ability to operate at scale. We are open to calibrating title and level for the right person.

- Own support analytics: volume, root causes, trends, friction points, and performance metrics
- Partner with Engineering to build automation and internal tooling that reduces repetitive work
Elevate the Customer Experience
- Build tight feedback loops between customers and Product
- Influence roadmap decisions based on recurring issues and usage patterns
- Collaborate with Documentation and Developer Experience teams to improve onboarding and self-serve pathways
- Partner with Sales and Delivery on high-priority accounts and escalations
