To keep the Meetup ecosystem humming, the team trades more than 18,000 emails with members each month: they answer questions, offer advice, hunt down defects, and reinforce Meetup's Community Guidelines. They welcome new Meetup groups to the platform, assess trust and safety reports, and act as the voice of the Meetup customer within the company.

  • Lead our Support, Policy and Integrity teams
  • Define and execute the vision for ensuring that people around the world get problem-solving support, organizers get coaching on how to run great Meetups
  • Be the voice of the customer which informs product creation
  • Maintain and scale relationships with external vendors
  • Work across teams to build tools to minimize customer effort
  • Test innovative tactics to support customers at key moments in their Meetup journey to further drive results

What we’re looking for:

  • 5+ years leading large (30+), customer-facing teams
  • A passion for Meetup and its mission
  • Unyielding customer focus experience
  • Experience scaling operations to support users during high growth periods
  • Background in creating and/or enforcing complex policy
  • Excitement about driving change and inspiring the people who work for you
  • Strong strategic, quantitative, written, and interpersonal skills
  • Experience working across teams to drive customer-facing results

If your experience fits some but not all of what’s listed, we’d still love to hear from you!

Our team is bold, supportive, and passionate about bringing people together in real life to create community for everyone. We care about moving fast, real-world change, and building diverse, dynamic teams. You in?

An Insider's view of Meetup

How would you describe the company’s work-life balance?

Meetup promotes a healthy balance and respect around work life, personal life, and family life. It's not simply policy but instead, the culture that lives with all employees (managers and leaders included). Work happens during our traditional business hours.

Harry Chiu

Head of Recruiting

What does your typical day look like?

As an engineer at Meetup, my mission is to build things that help product teams focus on our users and develop our product faster and with better quality. My team mob programs or pair programs by default, which works great for us because it increases code and architecture, knowledge sharing, focus, productivity and team bonding.

How does the company support your career growth?

I created my own professional development path by participating in the Employee Resource Group and Diversity & Inclusion council. Participating and organizing these company initiatives allowed me to stretch my leadership muscles, understand the value of empathizing with my colleagues, and appreciate the ability to use my voice to influence change.

What's something quirky about your company?

What I enjoy the most about working at Meetup is the people. As a mission driven company with a focus on building community, our community sets a great example.
