About The Position

We’re growing our Support team and are seeking a seasoned Enterprise Support Engineer with deep API expertise, strong technical judgment, and a proven track record of supporting complex customer environments. This role is designed for someone who knows how to navigate ambiguity, manage high-stakes situations, and communicate clearly with stakeholders ranging from developers to executives.

At ReadMe, Support is not simply reactive. Our Enterprise Support Engineers are trusted partners to our customers -- helping them maintain world-class developer documentation, optimize their integrations, and confidently scale their use of our platform. You look beyond individual tickets to understand systemic issues, advocate internally for customers, and proactively improve the overall customer experience.

We're a small team of humans (and one owl) working together to do big things — and that’s where you come in. In this role you’ll have a transformational impact on ReadMe across both the trajectory of the business and our thriving culture.

ReadMe helps more than 5,000 leading startups and tech companies build beautiful, personalized, and interactive developer hubs. If you’ve ever visited the developer docs for PagerDuty, Samsara, or Nvidia, you’ve used ReadMe!

We love what we do because it’s so much more than just documentation. We’re providing tools for teams to build a better developer experience and make their products and APIs easier to use. We’ve got great support from our investors at Accel who led our Series A, and our interview process reflects the open, caring, and whimsical culture we want to maintain as we scale.
