On a mission to transform the way millions of people work with sales enablement, Highspot is committed to building breakthrough software with a spark of magic.

    • Develop clean, reusable, supportable, and well-tested RESTful APIs and web services
    • Design and implement new endpoints for Highspot’s external API to power the Highspot web frontend, mobile applications, and our customers' software
    • Write automated tests of your code and collaborate with QA to deliver software at a high level of quality
    • Define and meet scalability, uptime, performance, and security goals
    • Resolve major customer technical issues in production
    • Contribute to internal and external technical documentation

Your Background

    • Proficiency in building, integrating with, and supporting APIs using a variety of languages, data formats, and data transformations
    • An  entrepreneurial spirit: you’re agile, creative, resourceful, and tenacious as you solve problems and achieve team and company goals
    • Comfortable with modern open source technologies and tools
    • Experience developing software products, scalable internet software, and applications using a range of software models including object-oriented and functional design patterns
    • B.S./M.S. in Computer Science or equivalent industry experience
    • 7+ years of relevant work experience
Base salary range: $170,435 - $230,435. Employees may also be eligible for bonuses, stock options, and other forms of compensation.
