In the digital age, content rules.
More people are now involved in creating and distributing content than ever before. We have all become the media; the media has been marginalized, and brands are now broadcasters.
Everyone has a story to tell or something to sell. A need to create, connect, post, publish, showcase, and share.
So, say hello to Strapi! We exist to fuel the world’s creativity and productivity by unleashing the power of content.
It’s open-source. Javascript. Headless. Community first. And free. And will stay that way. Forever.
You could be joining a team of over 90 Strapiers, remotely located (USA, Africa, France, Italy...to name a few).
We offer a fully remote, global, diverse, and inclusive environment with a collaborative, transparent, and caring flare.
🚀
As a whole, Strapi has a caring, transparent and collaborative culture, but every team creates within it its own energy and environment.
At Strapi, we don't expect you to meet all of the requirements - If you believe in what you have to contribute and in your ability to elevate the team, we want to hear about your story.
Few of us would be here had we not taken the chance.
🙏🏾 Why your role is important at Strapi
After the release of
Strapi Enterprise Edition in June 2020, Strapi has quickly grown its customer base. This customer base includes important accounts: Rakuten, Tesco, IBM, eBay, Mitsubishi, etc. Our revenue is booming, with solid double-digit growth month over month. Currently, the Team consists of five people, including a Sales Manager, a Pre-Sales Engineer, a Partner Development Manager, and two Account Executives. This role is pivotal in driving Strapi’s growth by acquiring new clients (new logo) and expanding opportunities within our existing customer base (expansion).
👋🏿 The Sales department culture
🌈 Diversity & Inclusion: we're committed to building a diverse, safe & healthy work atmosphere and pay even more attention to our Sales Department to reflect this engagement.
👏🏻 Caring approach: Care is one of our six values. Not only do we want to care for our employees (have a look at our benefits package to get an idea), but we also want to be real partners with our customers. We aim to build a long-term relationship with them, not sell at all costs!
