HydroNeo
is a fast-growing international startup revolutionizing the global aquaculture industry with smart farming technology. As the market leader in Thailand, we are on a mission to transform our Smart Farm Management System into the
HydroNeo Aquaculture Super App
. With strong backing from Thai and international investors, BOI support, and a growing international team of 30+ members, we are building the future of sustainable aquaculture.

Position Overview

We are looking for a
Customer Support & Operations Specialist
to become a core part of HydroNeo's expansion into
Indonesia
. This role starts with an intensive training period at our Bangkok headquarters, after which you will be
our first team member based in Surabaya
— supporting Indonesian customers and managing day-to-day operations locally.

This position is ideal for someone entrepreneurial and hands-on — someone who loves to help customers succeed but is also ready to take care of all the small but essential things that make a young operation run smoothly. You'll provide first-level support to customers via phone and chat, handle order preparation and packaging, and coordinate between customers and our technical team in Thailand for more complex issues.

If you're an organized problem-solver with a balance of customer service, operational, and technical skills — and you're excited about building something from the ground up — we'd love to hear from you.

    in Thailand for complex or technical issues

  • Track and follow up on open cases to ensure quick resolution and customer satisfaction

  • Use HydroNeo's
    internal backend system
    to log tickets, document findings, and monitor product status

  • Support day-to-day operational tasks — from managing small logistics matters to helping anything else that is needed to be done for us to be successful

  • Gather feedback from customers and share insights to help improve our processes and products

  • Represent HydroNeo professionally and help build our brand presence in Indonesia

Requirements

  • Entrepreneurial, reliable, and hands-on
    personality with strong sense of responsibility

  • Previous experience in
    customer support, operations, or technical service
    preferred

  • Technical understanding of hardware or IoT products, and ability to follow basic technical documentation

  • Organized and detail-oriented with good multitasking skills

  • Comfortable using
    ticket systems or CRM tools
    , and structured workflows

  • Excellent communication skills and ability to explain technical topics in a clear, customer-friendly way

  • Willingness to
    train for 1-3 months in Bangkok, Thailand
    before relocating to Surabaya

  • Fluent in
    Bahasa Indonesia
    and
    English
    ; Thai or a third relevant language is a plus

  • Excited to be part of a small but growing international startup and to help build HydroNeo's Indonesian operations from the ground up
