The GitHub Accounts Support team is looking for full-time team members in our SF office or worldwide! We are particularly in need of folks in Asia-Pacific and Europe.
When GitHub users have questions, they email support. We help people as quickly and awesomely as possible. Our Account Support team handle passwords, email verification, billing, legal, spam and abuse, account lockouts, fraud, and helping people choose plans. This requires a logical brain and a spidey sense for problems.
The most important characteristic of our support team is that we love helping developers. GitHub is a place for people to work better, together. Our job is to help. Support treats users the way we #39;d want someone to treat our friends.
Our support teammates have excellent writing chops: stellar grammar, charming written personality, and the ability to explain complicated things simply. We measure our success in swiftness, accuracy, and clarity.
You must have:
Stellar English and grammar skills
Excellent problem solving skills – you might not know all the answers but you know how to find and communicate the solution
A strong sense of empathy and the ability to advocate for others
A unique writing style and voice
Bonus if you have:
Prior customer support experience
Technical experience (QA, documentation, elaborate boardgames)
Experience working remotely
Developers: this probably isn #39;t the job for you, but perhaps you have a friend who would be a perfect fit. Send them this link. Thanks!
About GitHub
Who we are
GitHub is the best place to share code with friends, co-workers, classmates, and complete strangers. Over ten million people use GitHub to build amazing things together. With the collaborative features of GitHub.com, our desktop and mobile apps, and GitHub Enterprise, it has never been easier for individuals and teams to write better code, faster.
We have a lot of exciting things to do, and we’re looking for the right people to grow with us!
Why you should join
Working at GitHub is, to put it simply, a special slice of the universe. We #39;re committed to transparency, collaboration, experimentation, and always staying classy.
Because of this unique perspective, we #39;ve established one of the most flexible and well designed physical workspaces around that encourages you to work as you work best. Right now, over 60% of our employees are based outside of our San Francisco (SOMA) headquarters and work according to how they get their best stuff done.
Ensuring that GitHubbers are healthy, motivated, focused and creative is how GitHub stays awesome. Part of this is ensuring that our benefits are out of this world.
In a nutshell, we #39;ve built and are growing a place where we truly love working, and we think you will too.

We don #39;t discriminate against employees or applicants based on gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, race, religion, age, national origin, citizenship, pregnancy status, veteran status, or any other differences that people imagine to discriminate against one another.
