This application is for a Support/Sales Engineer role.  If you are interested in a different role, please visit our Hiring Page.

Requirements for Support/Sales Engineer:

  • Perfect phone demeanor and ability to communicate effectively via the phone.

  • Perfect grammar and professional tone via email.

  • Basic understanding of the technical aspects of hosting.

  • Our hosting products are not your normal run-of-the-mill hosting products.  Vae Platform is highly customized CMS hosting (think Squarespace or Shopify) and BrickFTP is entirely focused on file sharing (think Box.com or Dropbox).  With that said, we still want to see a hosting-centric skillset. Specific hosting-related skills we're looking for include:

    • TCP/IP and understanding of IP routing

    • DNS

    • FTP

    • HTTP

    • E-Mail (including IMAP, POP, SMTP)

    • Firewalls and Ports

    • SSL

    • The following skills are a plus:

      • UNIX experience

      • PHP/MySQL coding experience

Please use the form on this page to send in your application now.  

We only read cover letters in our first screening round, so make sure yours counts.  In your cover letter, we'd like you to address the following topics:

  • Why does this opportunity specifically appeal to you?
  • How well do you align with Our Core Beliefs?  Is there anything you would add or change?
  • Why would working remotely for Action Verb change your life for the better?
  • Are you familiar with Holacracy?  Any questions or concerns?
  • What's lacking in your current work arrangement that we could improve?
  • What are your philosophies on customer support?

(And yes, this goes into the box labeled Cover Letter.)

Please do not use the "Apply with Linkedin" or "Apply with Indeed" buttons.  We would much rather see your original resume than a LinkedIn summary.

We look forward to reading your submission.  To learn more about the next steps, visit our interview preparation page.
