About Mintlify

Self-updating documentation for startups, enterprises, and agents. Backed by Y Combinator and a16z.

About the role

We're hiring a Head of Technical Support to own how Mintlify supports its customers, from fast-growing startups to our largest enterprise accounts. You'll lead a growing team of support engineers and stay hands-on: working the hardest escalations, debugging customer setups, and building the tooling that lets the team scale. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • 4+ years in technical support, support engineering, or a similar customer-facing technical role, including 1+ years managing a team
  • Experience leading support at a high-growth developer-tools or developer-focused company
  • Strong fluency in docs and developer tooling: Git and GitHub workflows, CI/CD, Markdown/MDX, static sites, APIs and OpenAPI specs, DNS and hosting
  • Hands-on debugging skills: you can reproduce an issue, read logs and config, and explain the root cause to an engineer or a customer
  • You've deployed AI in a support org (agents, deflection, or AI-assisted workflows) and can show what it changed in the numbers
  • Operational rigor: you've defined SLAs, built dashboards, reported metrics to leadership, and forecast volume and headcount

Culture of slope over y-intercept : We value learning velocity, grit, and unapologetically unique personalities.

We grew in value faster than headcount and we’re looking to align the two quickly.
