Staff Software Engineer, Backend Product

About Unify:

Unify was founded January 17th, 2023 by Austin Hughes and Connor Heggie. Prior to Unify, Austin led Ramp’s growth product team focused on new customer acquisition, and Connor was a machine learning research engineer at Scale AI . The rest of our team comes from companies like Airbnb , Spotify , Waymo , and LinkedIn .

Our mission is to build the first system-of-action for go‑to‑market teams, starting with an end‑to‑end platform powering warm outbound. Today, outbound sales is dominated by cold, mass outreach that floods people's inboxes and converts to deals at a tiny rate. We’re building a platform to power warm outbound, allowing go‑to‑market teams to get in touch with the right people at the exact time they’re looking for a solution.

We've grown revenue 8x year‑over‑year, and are already serving customers like Guru, Justworks, Together.AI, Flock Safety, Hightouch and more. We’re a high‑energy, high‑intensity team and we’ve raised $58M from Thrive, Emergence, OpenAI and others. Come join us in changing how go‑to‑market works.
