Sample interview questionsHow would you investigate a customer report that a PostgreSQL query is unexpectedly slow?I would first gather the query, schema context, approximate data volume, execution plan, timing, and recent changes. I would reproduce the issue where possible, use EXPLAIN or EXPLAIN ANALYZE to identify bottlenecks, assess indexing and query design, and provide a clear recommendation or escalate with the collected evidence.

How do you prioritize incoming cases across billing, pre-sales, implementation, and production-impacting technical issues?

I prioritize by customer impact, urgency, security or data-risk implications, and whether a customer is blocked in production. I acknowledge cases quickly, set expectations, route nontechnical requests appropriately, and keep a visible queue so high-impact technical issues receive timely investigation and escalation.

Describe how you would handle an issue reported in GitHub Discussions that may be a product defect.

I would clarify the expected and actual behavior, request a minimal reproducible example, verify the affected environment and versions, and attempt to reproduce it. If confirmed, I would document concise reproduction steps and evidence, direct the report to the appropriate engineering workflow, and keep the user informed until resolution or workaround.

What makes an effective response to a technical support customer?

An effective response is accurate, actionable, and easy to follow. I start by confirming my understanding of the issue, provide ordered diagnostic or remediation steps with relevant documentation or examples, explain why the steps matter, and state what information is needed if further investigation is required.

How would you improve support efficiency in a globally distributed asynchronous team?

I would identify recurring issues and resolution patterns, then turn them into reusable macros, documentation, troubleshooting guides, or lightweight internal tools. I would also improve handoff notes, escalation templates, and issue labels so teammates can quickly understand case status and avoid duplicate investigation.

Supabase is the Postgres development platform, built by developers for developers. We provide a complete backend solution including Database, Auth, Storage, Edge Functions, Realtime, and Vector Search. All services are deeply integrated and designed for growth.

We are seeking Support Engineers to provide world-class developer support for anyone experiencing issues or seeking guidance when using Supabase. The support team is globally distributed with a strong focus on minimizing time to fix, and works closely with the product engineering and growth teams.

You will:

*

Provide initial and timely responses to all support cases for a variety of topics, from billing or pre-sales requests to optimization or implementation questions.

*

Triage support cases including directing users to previous answers, code examples, documentation, or escalating to specific technical or business team members.

*

Monitor multiple feedback channels, e.g. Github Issues & Discussions (check them here: [https://github.com/supabase/supabase/issues](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/issues)).

*

Identify where internal tooling might be developed or obtained to improve support efficiency.

*

Reproduce issues, create test cases and improve test coverage, if you have experience with testing.

You are:

*

Experienced in customer support, with 3+ years of experience providing developer support to technical customers.

*

Proficient in SQL (ideally PostgreSQL). You feel comfortable with complex SQL queries. If you have a database administration experience, it’s a plus.

*

Excellent communication skills and fluency in English.

*

Skilled in using Linux/Unix operating systems and the command line.

*

Experienced working with GitHub Issues and Discussions.

*

Bonus points if you’re familiar with popular JavaScript frameworks like React, Vue, and Svelte and have some experience with Node.js.

*

Having a degree in Computer Science is a plus too.

### Timezones & Logistics

*

It’s a full-time position with a required location in APAC time zones (we don’t believe in sustainability of overnight shifts).

### What We Offer

*

Fully Remote

We hire globally. We believe you can do your best work from anywhere. There are no Supabase offices, but we provide a WeWork membership or co-working allowance you can use anywhere in the world.

*

ESOP

*

Tech Allowance

Use this budget to set up your ideal work environment—laptop, monitor, headphones, or whatever helps you do your best work.

*

Health Benefits

Supabase covers 100% of health insurance for employees and 80% for dependents, wherever you are. Your wellbeing and your family’s health are important to us.

*

Annual Off-Sites

Once a year, the entire company gathers in a new city for a week of connection, collaboration, and fun. It’s a highlight of our year.

*

Flexible Work

We operate asynchronously and trust you to manage your own time. You know what needs to be done and when.

*

Professional Development

Every team member receives an annual education allowance to spend on learning—courses, books, conferences, or anything that supports your growth.
