  • Help onboard and mentor other support engineers, raising the team’s overall bar for responsiveness and quality.

  • Professional fluency in English and Japanese, both written and verbal.

  • Experience providing rapid-response support to high-value or enterprise customers.

  • Strong debugging skills with JavaScript, Python, or similar languages.

  • Excellent written and verbal communication under time pressure — able to convey technical concepts clearly and calmly.

  • Familiarity with support tools like Zendesk, Linear, Slack, and internal debugging utilities.

  • Proven ability to manage multiple high-priority issues simultaneously while maintaining accuracy and composure.

  • A proactive, ownership-driven mindset and genuine empathy for customers building on Replit.


Bonus Points:

  • Has used Replit in the last 3 to 6 months.

  • Experience working with IDEs, terminals, or other common developer tools.

  • Problem-solving mindset: Ability to approach complex operational challenges systematically and devise effective solutions

  • Self-directed and autonomous: Capable of working independently while collaborating effectively with cross-functional teams

  • Strong communication skills: Ability to explain complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences

  • Continuous learning: Passion for staying current with industry best practices and new technologies
