Full-Stack Engineer - Support Team (not a product developer position)

Sanity.io is a content platform replacing traditional and headless CMSes in digital solutions at organizations like Spotify, Figma and Stack Overflow.

By treating content as data and enabling customers to create tailored content authoring experiences, modern organizations use Sanity to quickly create customized workflows and content models, drive a programmatic approach to content, and enable organizations to distribute structured content from a single source of truth.

Backed by Netlify, Vercel, Twitter, and Medium founders, Heroku's ex-CEO, and leading VCs like ICONIQ Growth, Threshold Ventures, and Lead Edge Capital, Sanity is at the epicentre of the modern digital products stack.

As a Full-stack Engineer on the Support team at Sanity.io, you will provide first-class technical guidance to our Enterprise client base and act as a point of escalation to tackle the most gnarly issues reaching Support.

To us, it is important to foster an inclusive and welcoming space where people of different experience levels feel comfortable asking for help. This compassionate approach means we value empathy and communication skills as much as technical capabilities and resourcefulness.

Finally, as an early member of the team shaping how we approach and build out support, you will have the opportunity to improve the health and reliability of Support infrastructure, contribute to tooling and workflows, and formalize Support Engineering practices.
