An Insider's view of Wasabi Technologies

What's something quirky about your company?

Well, starting with the name Wasabi for a High Tech company. That’s one thing for sure. It means that not only do we get support questions for our own products/services, but we see questions and complaints about a number of restaurants, fast food establishments, batteries, beauty supplies, digital currency, and even Vodka.

Mike

Director of Customer Support

How do you collaborate with other teams in the company?

Our Engineering groups are located all over the US and around the world. We often work for days on end finding and fixing issues, without much delay at all between our mornings and evenings. We were already a fairly remote-based Engineering organization before 2020, so the transition to fully distributed was pretty easy.

Rob Webster

Consulting Software Engineer

How does the company support your career growth?

Wasabi is a company that listens and encourages you to become even more successful than the year before. I started as a BDR 2.5 years ago and now manage a team of 7 ISA's, so I can personally thank Wasabi for providing a career for me where I can grow and learn from the best!

Kaylee

Manager, Inside Sales Associates

How do you empower your team to be more creative?

I try to allow my team the space and autonomy to feel comfortable sharing ideas. I encourage open brainstorming sessions and I group people together on projects where I know they have complementary skill sets to bring out the best in each other. Most of all I trust my team, they know this and it shows in the end product.

Julie

Vice President, Brand & Communications

How does the company support your career growth?

I started out at Wasabi as an intern. The internship program at Wasabi gave me unlimited opportunities to learn and grow as a professional. My managers Madison McDaniel and Chelsea Rodgers taught me so much, and since joining full time they have continued to push me to work on projects that both challenge and interest me.
