About the role

Hybrid, user-facing full-stack role focused on architecting end-to-end support experiences, building tooling to reduce manual tasks, and acting as a force multiplier to deliver valuable support features.

Responsibilities

  • Architect end-to-end user support experiences that maximize meaningful interactions, treating support as a systems engineering challenge.
  • Build tools and workflows to eliminate manual tasks so we can keep the team lean while maintaining velocity.
  • Identify the right form factor for each problem (whether forms, a custom forum from scratch, or custom tooling) by deeply understanding both user and team pain points.
  • Be a “force multiplier” that ship features to turn linear effort into exponential results.

Qualifications

  • Native proficiency in English language. Effective writing and communication skills with a personable nature; able to distill difficult technical concepts to a wide range of users
  • Senior level experience in full-stack engineering from aligning buttons on the front-end to building resilient back-end systems
  • The ability to debug complex technical issues that may range from tracing code paths to wrangling with Unix-like systems
  • A mid-level of working knowledge in the DevTools or infrastructure space: Docker, Kubernetes, cloud platforms, etc.
  • The ability to autonomously lead, design, and implement great support experiences from start-to-finish across stages of the customer experience lifecycle
  • A hacker mindset that recognizes patterns, the shortest-path to resolving issues, and eventually addressing the root cause of the issue
  • This role fits well for folks with experience in Software/Product Engineering, Support Engineering, and Infra/DevOps
