About Palette Labs
Palette Labs is building a decentralized protocol for commerce. Our first major use case is food delivery. We run a profitable, growing network where customers order from restaurants, drivers deliver food, and local operators spin up their own marketplaces. Think Uber Eats, but permissionless and owned by the people who use it.
After launching our own restaurant delivery service (Nosh) and experiencing the limitations of legacy providers first-hand, we built a modern platform from the ground up and have begun onboarding RDSs nationwide. As more operators adopt our technology, providing strong operational support has become essential. This role sits at the center of that mission.

About the role
This role exists to ensure the successful adoption and operation of the Palette Labs platform by our independent RDS partners. The Account Manager will own the entire non-technical support layer, acting as the primary point of contact for operators, guiding them from pre-launch readiness through long-term operational success. This person will partner closely with the engineering team by translating partner feedback into clear product and bug tickets. Success in the first 6–12 months will be measured by the speed and effectiveness of new partner launches and the overall operational health and satisfaction of assigned markets. This role spends most of its time solving complex operational challenges, driving feature adoption, and building scalable processes.
Responsibilities
Lead the end-to-end onboarding and launch process for new RDS partners, ensuring they are fully trained on the entire Palette Labs ecosystem (admin portal, apps, dispatching, etc.).
Own the configuration and pre-launch system preparation for assigned partners, managing workflows to guarantee a smooth and timely go-live experience.
Provide continuous operational support and troubleshooting for launched markets, proactively helping partners resolve non-technical issues and maintaining high service uptime.
Build and maintain strong, trust-based relationships with RDS operators, serving as their dedicated point of contact to increase platform adoption and market success.
Analyze partner feedback (bugs, operational friction, feature requests) and translate these needs into clear, actionable tickets for the engineering and product teams.
Contribute to the long-term scalability of Palette Labs' support function by identifying process gaps and proposing/implementing new SOPs, documentation, and training materials.
