The Interaction Design Foundation (IxDF) is the biggest online design school globally. Founded in 2002, we have over 150,000 graduates and counting.

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.

- 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.
