About the Opportunity

Salsify pioneered the first Product Experience Management (PXM) platform to help brand manufacturers win more sales and grow market share online. We work with a growing roster of hundreds of leading brands across the globe, including Coca-Cola, Dawn Foods, L’Oreal, Intermarché, L’Eclerc, and Coty. We’ve come a long way since starting in a Boston basement in late 2012, and now have great, happy customers across the entire supply chain, from brands to distributors to retailers to marketplaces.

We're looking for talented and passionate developers who want to be part of our SXM Engineering team. We already have a very experienced, solid team that we want to take to the next step in scaling and making it even more successful.

As a Software Engineer at Salsify, you will be entrusted to innovate and constantly improve our products to deliver a platform and experience our customers love to use. You will solve complex business and scalability problems and help define the direction of the product as well as work across the entire Salsify technology ecosystem, building and maintaining Frontend applications in React and Typescript, interacting directly with Retailers and Manufacturers like Dawn Foods, Intermarché, L’Eclerc, Auchan, Metro, and much more. Our engineers are simultaneously scaling a demanding application while simplifying complex business processes for our users and learning from top engineers along the way.

We deeply value our engineering culture. We strongly emphasize clarity, competence, accountability, and autonomy. We care about building the right thing, the right way, and having fun while we do it. Every member of our team has the freedom and responsibility to make Salsify a great place to work.
