[Remote] Customer Service Representative (Contractor)

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Helix is hiring a Customer Service Representative to support patients, providers, and partners with questions about orders, results, and care. The role resolves customer issues across phone, email, and webform, investigates complex inquiries, and maintains accurate documentation and privacy standards in a genomics healthcare environment.

Responsibilities

• Resolve customer issues end to end across phone, email, and webform, from first contact through resolution
• Handle the complex and first-of-their-kind cases that need human judgment, where there is no playbook to follow
• Work through ambiguous situations by reasoning to the right answer rather than reaching for a canned response
• Support multiple products, partners, and customer types, prioritizing based on business need
• Spot patterns in recurring issues, flag gaps in how we handle them, and help the team resolve faster and more consistently
• Loop in the right partners across Helix when an issue needs specialized help, and see it through to resolution
• Document customer interactions in our systems accurately and thoroughly
• Maintain HIPAA compliance and high standards of privacy and security when handling sensitive information
• Assist with quality investigations and complaints

• A 4-year degree
• Comfort in a regulated environment, handling health and personal information with care
• Critical, independent thinking. You'd rather understand why something is happening than simply close the ticket
• Genuine warmth in hard conversations. You can be calm, clear, and human with someone who's worried about their health
• A fast ramp. You pick up new products, tools, and systems quickly
• The range to juggle many things at once without dropping the ones that matter
• A team-first instinct. You share what works and look for ways to make the team more efficient, not just yourself
• Resourceful curiosity. You enjoy piecing together details across tools and context to solve problems and communicate solutions smoothly
• AI fluency and adaptability. You are curious about emerging technology and eager to collaborate with AI-driven tools to enhance problem-solving, streamline workflows, and drive everyday efficiency
• Background in genomics, diagnostics, or a patient-facing healthcare setting
