Support Operations Engineer

Overview

We're a non-profit organization on a mission to create modern, independent publishing technology to power the future of online journalism.

Job Description

Ghost is a full stack web application for running independent publications. It’s one of the most popular modern open source projects in the world, and is used in production by tens of thousands of websites and companies.

Responsibilities

  • - Make Support more efficient. Audit our workflows, tooling, automations, routing, knowledge base, and metrics. Find the leaks. Fix them. Build internal tools and integrations where buying isn’t the right answer.
  • - Use AI where it earns its keep. Deploy automations and AI assistance (for triage, drafting, summarisation, internal search, classification — whatever moves the needle) without shipping any slop that erodes customer trust.
  • - Squash bugs that are in our way. When a recurring issue keeps generating tickets and the product team is heads-down on a roadmap item, we don’t want to divert their attention.
  • - Answer tickets — selectively and well. You’ve come up through support, or stepped across from product engineering, because you love puzzles.

Required Skills

  • - Real software engineering experience at a technical SaaS product.
  • - You’ve handled a queue, owned tooling, and shipped improvements that have made your colleagues’ days easier and more fun.
  • - Comfortable in our stack. Ghost is a full-stack JavaScript app.
  • - You build things to remove your own work. Scripts, internal tools, automations, integrations between Front, Linear and the rest of our support stack.
  • - Practical AI fluency. You’ve actually deployed LLM-powered workflows in a support or operations context.
  • - A genuinely clear writer. We’re a remote team that runs on writing.
  • - Low ego, high autonomy. You’re comfortable being the only person who owns a thing.
  • - An interest in digital publishing and journalism.

Benefits

  • - Competitive salary Based on role, skill, experience and location.
  • - Work from anywhere Everything we do is online.
  • - Hardware A brand new MacBook Pro + a budget for office setup and the latest AI tools.
  • - Co-working If you prefer to work from a co-working space, we'll help pay for it.
