We're a small team of driven hackers and happiness heroes (our support people). Just like you, we're excited and passionate about engineering challenges and have some interesting architecture and scaling problems we work on.If you're interested in coming on board, you’ll: - work closely with Sunil on technical architecture and Joel on product.
- ship to thousands of users and iterate quickly
- work with our metrics team to make smart changes
- be friendly and comfortable talking directly to customers on issues and features
- be a happy, positive-minded and kind person who has a great approach in dealing
with others
- be a Buffer user
- be anywhere in the world, and if you'd like, you have help and support from us
to move to where you want to be
- have experience working with another startup or building side projects
before (would be awesome, it’s cool if not)
Some aspects of Buffer culture that makes us a little different: - we are totally transparent. We raised $450k, we currently have over 1.1
million users and generate $195k/mo. Ask me anything else!
- within the company, all salaries and equity are open and we have a formula
for the distribution.
- we're all very focused on self improvement
- we have daily standups where we discuss our current improvements. This could
be waking up earlier, starting public speaking, blogging, exercise, learning
a language, etc.
