Plain is redefining customer support for the next generation of B2B companies. We’re building the fastest, most powerful platform to help companies move beyond reactive support and build true customer relationships.
Some of the world’s most forward-thinking companies - like Cursor, Raycast, and Granola - trust Plain to unify all customer interactions, enable faster team collaboration, and supercharge their workflows with AI.
B2B customer support is undergoing a seismic shift. AI is transforming the way companies engage with customers, shifting support from a siloed function to a company-wide effort across Slack, Discord, and any other channel you talk to customers in. The old way - slow, manual, and disconnected - no longer works.
What You'll Do
Engineering at Plain is about much more than moving tickets from left to right - it’s about owning and solving problems end to end, from infrastructure decisions to feature design to button copy.
You will:
This is a great fit if you…
- Thrive in early ideation stages, love sharing work-in-progress, and enjoy the balance of making trade-offs in order to ship high impact products.
- Are impact driven and motivated by seeing customers succeed. You measure the quality of your work by the end-experience of users, not the abstractions or cleanliness of the code.
- Have a proven track record working for product-led companies, ideally in B2B SaaS.
- You’re autonomous and able to prioritise your workload. You know when to take a shortcut and when to invest in long-term infrastructure.
- Have experience working with distributed, serverless systems, and have worked on similar web applications with a high quality and performance bar before
- Are equally at home in architectural conversations as you are in customer conversations.
This won't be the right role if you…
- Are uncomfortable with ambiguity. We have some really exciting traction but are still at an early stage and are constantly learning and trying new things as our company grows.
- Find learning about new technologies a key motivation for coming to work. We invest in what makes us productive but will prefer the known option to the experimental and novel. Postgres is great.
- Are looking to manage others. We're firmly looking for someone who, for now, wants to be an individual contributor.
- Expect all the perks of a big company. We’re a Series A startup and are competitive in what we offer at our stage, but it’s a different role and opportunity than working at an established tech company.
