SendGrid is and always will be an engineering company. We hire people with a wide range of technical skills and expertise who are interested in solving large-scale development problems, like how to deliver billions of transactional emails per month in a secure and scalable way.
As a software engineer at SendGrid, you will work on a small, versatile and passionate team, tackling new problems as we continue to push our technology forward.

Below are some examples of the diverse projects with which you might be involved:
Develop new, innovative, scalable web applications & APIs that have millions of hits per day
Build highly dynamic and personalized applications for our customers, that will be the foundation of all future web applications
Build and enhance products that empowers businesses to share exciting news, events, and offers with their customers
Develop distributed applications that scale dynamically in the cloud
Research new technologies to make platforms faster
Work with our global team of web engineers
Contribute ideas to improve our service and software
Continued growth through developer conferences and technical training
Requirements:
