The Interaction Design Foundation (IxDF) is the biggest online design school globally. Founded in 2002, we have over 150,000 graduates and counting. We’re market leaders in online design education because the world’s leading experts create our content and because we’re specialized in design. What’s more, with over 1.5 million monthly visitors, we’re at the forefront of providing premier design education to such organizations as IBM and SAP, as well as thousands of other companies. 

What you will be doing

In this role, you thrive when working independently and flexing your keen eye for detail. You’re an expert communicator, and you pride yourself on balancing classic member support with a technical twist. 

You will help us achieve our vision to become the best and most recognized design school on the planet. We’re not just saying that. We mean it very seriously, and we’ve come a long way on that road. 

Ahead of you is a highly rewarding and enriching journey on which you will make an impact as you:

• Act as an ambassador of our brand and maintain our excellent reputation. It’s a big responsibility but also a very rewarding one!
• Serve as a troubleshooting and technical advocate within our team, communicating closely with our devs to ensure any technical issues on our platform are smoothed out in record time. 
• Correspond daily with our users across multiple channels, building out our FAQ/self-help repository, reporting bugs or inconsistencies, and being a champion for the experience members have on the site. 
• Collaborate asynchronously and effectively with other teams. You’re okay with working independently, getting your part of the job done, even as some of your amazing teammates are sleeping on the other side of the world. 
• Work with the marketing and editorial teams to improve our product offerings and the user experience of the platform.  
• Proactively test and explore ways to improve our platform, communicating and documenting your learnings to contribute to our company goals.
• Meticulously update our internal knowledge base through precise documentation, filling in any gaps you find along the way. 

Our community is at the heart of what we do, and we put a colossal effort into serving them as best we can. That’s why we’re looking for a talented and hard-working Member Support Unicorn who has an eye for detail, an empathic nature to help people, and a natural drive for perfection.

Alongside providing support to our community, if you’re hungry to develop yourself professionally, you’ll find huge potential to enjoy growing in other areas. In fact, you can see this role symbolized nicely in our logo: We revolve around growth and setting knowledge free—and need the right person to help our members find growth and enlightenment even more easily!      

Overall, if you’re ready to help our community and, in turn, change the future of education, then congratulations—you’ve come to the right place!
