Software Engineer (Full Stack)
About Pace
To rapidly scale enterprise software businesses, revenue teams must deliver increasingly complex products faster and more efficiently than their competitors.
The fastest-growing enterprise software companies are product-led and seller-accelerated. Pairing the efficiency of product-led growth with the efficacy of enterprise sales requires real-time customer visibility. By bringing together both commercial information from the CRM and usage data from the product, Pace equips sellers with the relevant insights at the right time so they can spend time growing revenue, not combing through dashboards.
Based in New York, Pace is founded by former sales and product leaders from MongoDB and backed by Work-Bench, AlleyCorp and GTM leaders from companies like Stripe, Snowflake, Datadog, Atlassian, and more.
