Overview We’re looking for a Senior Director to lead Supportability at GitHub -the discipline responsible for ensuring our Support organization can deliver a world‑class customer experience as the platform grows. This role sits within the Technical Customer Support job family and leads the operational, technical, and cross‑functional systems that enable Support to scale effectively.
You will develop and optimize the processes, workflows, and operating models that govern how Support handles issues at scale — including ticket pipeline management, automation, self‑service, product supportability, and team enablement. You’ll oversee the design of training programs, knowledge standards, and readiness processes that ensure Support teams have the technical depth, product expertise, and operational clarity needed to resolve customer issues efficiently.
You’ll partner deeply with Engineering, Product, and Design leadership to improve product supportability, influence roadmap decisions, and ensure new features are support‑ready at launch.

You will manage and develop a high‑performing team, foster a culture of learning and collaboration, and deliver measurable improvements in customer satisfaction, resolution efficiency, and cost‑to‑serve.
