Software Developer

Our mission is to make email better by spreading DMARC everywhere, but at our core, we’re people helping people.

The Product and Development teams are driven to create an inviting, inclusive user experience while maintaining and improving our free public tools and robust DMARC Management Platform. The technology we help customers implement is highly technical, but interactions with our tooling and platform should be informative and enjoyable.Our team uses Slack to communicate as well as Google Workspace to organize and communicate our work. The Development Team uses Unix-based machines, typically Macs, for development work.
