Senior Backend Engineer

About Unify:

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. We've grown revenue 39x year-over-year, and are already serving customers like Lattice, Airbyte, and OpenPhone (see here for case study).

The status quo is that sellers spend the majority of their day doing administrative tasks. They’re confined to jotting notes, looking at LinkedIn profiles and monitoring Slack notifications. This needs to change.

Our team has been studying sales workflows for years, spotting the patterns and repetitive button clicks that hold sellers back. We’ve stood in their shoes, understood how to give them superpowers, and built products that unlocked their 7th gear.

Now we’re building with OpenAI models (they’re an investor) and numerous data vendors to change how go-to-market works. 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.

Unify was founded January 17th, 2023 by Austin Hughes (former Ramp) and Connor Heggie (former Scale AI). 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. Other members of the founding team come from companies like Airbnb, Spotify, and LinkedIn.

We’re a high energy team and we’ve raised $19M from Thrive, Emergence, OpenAI and others. Come join us in changing how go-to-market works.
