Meet AppSumo
AppSumo is the digital marketplace trusted by 1M+ entrepreneurs. We've helped launch thousands of top B2B tools like Mailchimp, Evernote, Intercom, and Dropbox just to name a few.
At AppSumo, we believe work doesn't have to suck. We love helping entrepreneurs build a lifestyle they're passionate about. And that includes you.
The foundation of our culture is treating teammates like adults. This is a place where we actually encourage you to have a side hustle and develop your career at AppSumo. You'll learn everything about starting and growing a business here-and get paid to do it.
We're on a mission to open the doors of entrepreneurship to everyone. You in?
Why this is your dream job:
This job is about assessing where the biggest business opportunities exist on our site and implementing cutting-edge solutions that improve the AppSumo platform. In this role, you'll work on customer-facing products and watch your code impact millions of users within days! We work hard and ship fast, but we still keep a high bar for quality and testing.
We recently rebuilt our platform with an updated tech stack that includes Python, Vue.js, Nuxt.js, Node, Javascript, AWS, ElasticSearch, all in a CICD environment.
On the day-to-day, you'll be:

  • Working with our product and design team to deeply understand and communicate the needs of our users
  • Designing and building software to reach an audience of millions, using Python and Javascript
  • Building infrastructure to handle hundreds of petabytes of user data using Postgres, ElasticSearch, Redis, and more
  • Validating the performance of your amazing code through telemetry and dashboards
  • Working in a CI/CD environment with Python and Jenkins, and touching on AWS and Docker
  • Partnering closely with customer support to respond to user issues and solve them in a permanent, scalable way

Past experience:
This is a unique role best suited for someone who can fearlessly take a task and run with it, and use their broad expertise to work through the whole stack with confidence. Our ideal candidate has:

  • 8+ years of industry experience, preferably with an e-commerce SaaS/PaaS company
  • Knowledge of 3rd party integrations
  • Experience owning an entire feature from start to finish
  • Expertise with Python and/orJavascript, and AWS

In the first six months of this role, success means learning the code base and shipping out three meaningful features to the AppSumo website.
The benefits:

  • Health insurance through Humana, plus vision, dental, life insurance, and mental health services for you and your loved ones
  • 401(k) matching
  • 100% hybrid work model-work from home or the office
  • Open vacation (PTO) policy (plan to make your Slack status a "🌴" at least one week per quarter)

Unique perks to take care of you:

  • Freedom to have a side hustle (we don't treat that word like it's Voldemort)
  • Free access to all the software and tools in the AppSumo marketplace
  • An invite to our annual all-expenses-paid company trip (think Costa Rican Resort, not teambuilding at Generic Corporate Venue #84)
  • Flexible hours that let you start late or take that midday power nap
  • Access to our dog-friendly, snack-packed office in Austin
  • Free lunch once a week, all the gear you need and work that actually makes an impact
