About Us

CWILL (pronounced "quill") is a post-purchase and retention suite built for Shopify brands. Reduce support tickets, recover lost revenue from returns, and turn one-time buyers into loyal fans - with tools purpose-built for every touchpoint that follows the sale.
About this role
As the company's local point of contact for operations and compliance overseas, this role is primarily responsible for day-to-day operational execution, cross-timezone collaboration, and implementation of local compliance requirements.

2. First-Line Incident Response
  • Serve as the first responder for incidents affecting systems and services in the North America region, reducing cross-timezone response delays.
  • Independently resolve common incidents, and coordinate efficiently with the China-based team on complex issues.
3. Compliance & Liaison Support
  • Under guidance from compliance experts, progressively take on execution and liaison work related to GDPR, SOC2, and US local regulations (e.g., CCPA, EO 14117).
  • Support overseas/local legal, compliance, and third-party audit requirements to help ensure the company's SaaS product remains compliant.
