Grouparoo

Grouparoo (http://www.grouparoo.com) is a venture-backed software company building the open-source framework for managing, syncing, and syndicating data between your app(s) and all the marketing and operations tools your company needs to run.  Do you need to keep your product data (Postgres) in-sync with Hubspot, Marketo and Zendesk?  Do you want to limit the PII that leaves your firewall but still be able to have meaningful conversations with your customers?  Do you want to be able to build, tests, and deploy data syndication code just like the rest of your stack? That’s what Grouparoo does.

We are a small team, and so we are looking for generalist engineers who are interested in learning about a wide variety of tools and technologies rather than becoming experts in any one part of the stack.  We call this role “Founding” because you will have a real opportunity to influence the direction of the company and product. The main components of our stack are Typescript/Javascript, Actionhero, Next.js and React.
