Kickstarter is the leading crowdfunding platform for creative projects across film, games, music, art, design, and technology.
Since our founding in 2009, our mission to help bring creative projects to life has been powered by the people behind the work.
Together, we’ve helped creators around the world launch creative projects that have generated billions of dollars in pledges. That
same commitment extends inward. Rooted in shared values, Kickstarter invests in the growth and success of our team, treating
employees as whole people and empowering them with the autonomy and space to participate in decisions that shape their work and
our company.
The Lead, Community Support, is a senior individual contributor on our Community Support (CS) team reporting to the Senior
Manager, Community Support. You are a recognized expert on our platform, policies, and tooling. You will own and drive the
high-impact initiatives that move our team forward — leading projects within CS, partnering cross-functionally, and managing
relationships with external vendors. You’ll own the ongoing improvement of the core tools our team relies on, ensuring they evolve
to meet the needs of our teammates and our community. You’ll also stay close to the realities of our users by working a meaningful
portion of tickets each week — keeping your judgment sharp and grounding every improvement in real user problems. While this role
does not directly manage people, you will set the bar for execution and lead by example, raising the performance of those around
you through expertise, coaching, and influence.
Our Community Support team includes members working in the US, UK and in Singapore, so this role will require a schedule that
accommodates a significant overlap with all of these regions weekly. There is some flexibility in how this schedule will look
when finalized depending on availability, but sample schedules are included below for clarity:
US-based Lead*
Option 1: Mon/Tues 5am - 1pm EST, Weds/Thurs 9am - 5pm EST
Option 2: Mon - Thurs 6am - 2pm EST
