At Help Scout, we’re on a mission to help businesses delight more customers. We’ve been on this journey since 2011, and today more than 12,000 companies use our platform to provide outstanding customer support. We’ve been fully remote from the beginning, and have a team of 140+ people all over the world.
We love crafting beautiful products and growing a business together, but we’re also trying to do something bigger. We’re building a company that brings out your best and leaves the world a better place — a company that seeks balance between profit and purpose. That’s why we’ve been a Certified B Corporation since 2019 and have pledged 1% of our equity back to the community.
Help Scout’s success hinges on hiring talented, high-accountability people who want to be part of creating a culture where we all feel challenged and supported to do our best work. We hope that excites you to join us!
Help is our first name. We show up for others, not because we have to, but because we want to. We share knowledge and give freely by default, and operate with generosity and empathy for each other, our customers, and our community. After all, there is no I in team (or software).
Although it’s tempting to follow a well-worn path, we push ourselves to run beyond it — even when that sets us apart from our peers. We’re building a culture where it’s safe to be ambitious and hold each other to high standards. That’s why we obsess over the last 10%, because it shows up for our customers and the business in powerful ways.
The work of building a product, culture, and brand is never done – we ship our best effort, listen, iterate, then repeat. Seeking progress requires the vulnerability to be curious, humble, and hungry to learn. Great ideas can come from anywhere, so we share our work openly, welcome the perspective of others, and continuously search for what can be improved.
Ownership is key to our collective success. We consider the impact on our team and our community before we act, and believe that trust and integrity are non-negotiable. To create a better future, our decisions are made with stakeholders today and ten years from now in mind.
Our mission is to deliver powerful, AI-powered platforms to build delightful customer service experiences on. As part of this team, you will have a unique and outsized impact on the success of our business.
It’s hard to overstate the changes that generative AI is already bringing to our customers and we are still early on our journey. We are looking for somebody to match our passion for building complex systems and share our care for providing an unparalleled experience for the customer using generative AI.
We are a highly collaborative team that is always receptive to new ideas and perspectives. You will be empowered to speak up and help shape the direction of our products and workflows.
Since we have remote team members based in European and North American timezones, ideal working hours are roughly 9 AM – 5 PM ET. As long as the team consistently has four hours of overlap each day, you’re all set.
Each role at Help Scout has a pay range aligned to our salary formula and based on national market data. We take a competency-based approach and pay is based on the level and band of your role. We assess leveling during the hiring process for new teammates, during our bi-annual performance review cycles, and when a teammate’s role changes.
Our remote compensation philosophy is not based on the employee’s geographic location. You are paid the same no matter where you live.
The salary range for this role is $162,000-$187,000.
All of our roles are remote, however, some roles may carry specific location-based eligibility requirements. Additionally, because Help Scout is a fully remote company and we hire from many countries, we do not sponsor visas. Help Scout teammates need to be authorized to work from their home location.
For our Product Management, Product Design, and Engineering roles, we are only able to hire in the United States.
For other roles, we are only able to hire in the following countries: United States, Canada, Australia, Finland, Ireland, Netherlands, Poland, United Kingdom, Denmark, Germany, and Norway.
