2024  Tiago                           2025 
   joins Converge

Tiago and Thomas are the only ones building the product right now. Have a look at what we’re building below. There’s a lot to ship and we’re looking for engineers who are comfortable owning large chunks of this.

Product

Converge is building the unified marketing measurement stack for online stores. We make it easy for marketeers to understand where their customers come from, cut unprofitable channels, and scale when things are working.

By vertically integrating the modern data stack, we can offer marketeers a 10x better product experience. We combine customer data collection, consent management, identity resolution, marketing attribution, data forwarding, and analytics into a single platform.

On top of our shared data infrastructure, we have 2 customer-facing products

  • Connections: a CDP for marketing integrations — ‘Segment for e-commerce’
  • Analytics: custom attribution reporting — ‘Amplitude for e-commerce’

Offering each part of the modern data stack means we have large product surface. Because we started building this for a niche, we got away with MVPs, but as we actually started replacing competitors at each layer, we need to support a growing feature set.

How we ship

  • We ship product end-to-end. Work is broken down by what problem it solves, not where in the stack the solution lives.
  • High level of ownership. Every engineer is responsible for ensuring that they have all the context they need to ship fast. It’s the founders’ responsibility to make sure that this level of clarity exists in the company.
  • You will be working directly with our customers. We have a weekly support hero who helps out our customers that week. This is an amazing source of customer feedback and helps you build a direct relationship.

You own your own projects. Each project aims to solve a concrete customer problem or gap in the product and you’re responsible for shipping product to solve it. These typically take 1 - 4 weeks. On a weekly basis we simply talk about what was done and what should be in the next week, as well as any smaller features to pick up from customer support/sales.

What we value

  • Bias for action.
    • If something seems too hard, we’ll figure out whether it actually is by just giving it a go (it usually isn’t).
    • When bugs, papercuts, or small enhancements pop up, we have a tendency to just get them done instead of needing to plan everything.
  • Always learning. Whether that’s new technologies, going deep on customer problems, or the weeds of the martech space, we don’t know everything, but quickly do when it becomes relevant.
  • Cheerfulness and optimism. Building Converge is a lot of fun.
  • Simplicity. As a small team, we require simple solutions. If you’re malcontent with overcomplicated solutions, and have a natural tendency to simplify, you’ll fit right in.

Requirements

Senior full-stack experience

  • Productive and fast in React (or similar)
  • Comfortable with backend development and databases (Python/Postgres or similar)
  • Knowledge of how production software is deployed and scaled

Nice to have

  • Previously worked at a high-growth software company
  • Previously worked with Clickhouse
  • Deeper AWS knowledge

3. Culture interview (1h)

We go in larger detail on your past experiences, how you like to work, etc. to learn whether there’s a fit with our way of working and what we value.

4. Technical screen (30min)

About Converge

Converge is building the unified marketing measurement stack for online stores. We make it easy for marketeers to understand where their customers come from, cut unprofitable channels, and scale when things are working.

We scaled to $1M+ in ARR, now serving 180+ customers (including publicly listed companies). All the while, we kept our team very small with just 1 engineer, making this an outsized opportunity to join an early-stage startup with strong traction.

We are well-funded and backed by the founders of PostHog, Algolia, Postscript, Shipbob, Showpad, etc.
