Community Support Manager

About Framework
At Framework, we believe the time has come for products that are designed to last. Founded in San Francisco in 2019, our mission is to remake Consumer Electronics to respect people and the planet.

Our first product is the Framework Laptop, a thin, light, high-performance notebook that can be upgraded, customized, and repaired in ways that no other notebook can. Alongside this, we’ve launched the Framework Marketplace to enable an ecosystem of parts and modules. We’ve seen a fantastic reception to our first product from customers and reviewers from outlets like Linus Tech Tips, Ars Technica, and Wirecutter, along with landing on the cover of TIME’s Best Inventions of 2021. As a company, we made #35 on Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies of 2022.

We come from successful consumer electronics startups including the founding team of Oculus, and we recently closed an $18M Series A fundraising round to fuel our roadmap. Even better (and maybe unusually for an early stage startup), we’re in a financially healthy position going forward off of our product revenue. We care deeply about building a diverse and inclusive team, and we hope you do too!

The Position
We’re looking for a fantastic Community Support Manager to join the Framework Customer Experience Team to foster and provide support to the wonderful community of customers and developers using our products. This includes managing and moderating our rapidly growing community forum, jumping into our Discord server, social feeds, and subreddit, and being the bridge between our internal support and quality teams and the online world. We’re looking for someone who has unstoppable positivity and enthusiasm along with the technical knowledge to engage on complex hardware and software topics.

This is a remote position open to anywhere within the US. #LI-Remote
