As the Director, Customer Education and Community Support, you’ll have the opportunity to bring together and lead two important and impactful pillars of our support organization. On the Community side, you’ll help lead and grow our one-to-many support platforms (Twitter, Support Forum, etc.) and moderation strategy, creating a safe and engaging space for our customers to ask questions, share feedback, and learn from each other. On the Customer Education side, you’ll help develop and support our self-service efforts (Help Center, YouTube tutorials, etc.), creating high-quality resources that help customers find quick solutions and teach learners about Figma, design, development, and more.
