Staff Software Engineer
About you
You’re hard working, ambitious and you prefer to “lead from the front”. As a leader on the team, folks will be looking to you as an example of success and you value being a role model and force multiplier for others on the team.
You’re looking for a fast growing startup. Here’s our revenue growth and head count growth.
You’re looking for teammates, not coworkers - folks you’ll be able to count on to in a pinch and make your team’s goals possible. Here’s a bonus picture of our CTO’s son closing his first sale.
