About Us
Since 2013, we’ve been building a CRM that gets out of your way and helps your team sell more, faster. Now we’re building AI into every part of it, so Close does the busywork and your team does the selling. No manual data entry, no 10-click workflows. Just communication-first, AI-powered sales software designed to help you succeed and scale.
We're bootstrapped and profitable which means we answer to our customers and play by our rules. We're proud of our 120-person, 100% remote team, focused on building Close so that no small, scaling business fails because it can't figure out sales.
Our Stack
Our frontend is a single-page TypeScript web app built in React. We bundle with Vite and target modern browsers only. We test with Vitest, React Testing Library, Playwright, and Chromatic for visual regression. Our UI updates in near real-time using WebSockets and WebRTC, is styled via CSS modules, and is performance-tuned with route-based code splitting and skeleton UI. We've built our own design system, documented in an extensive Storybook.
We sweat the UI/UX details and work collaboratively with Product throughout the design process - from lo-fi wireframes through Figma and into code. Our frontend is built on top of our REST API and GraphQL endpoints, backed by a Python/Flask/FastAPI, MongoDB, Postgres and Elasticsearch stack running on AWS.
We love open sourcing our code and ideas on our GitHub and on The Making of Close, our behind-the-scenes Product & Engineering blog. Check our projects such as react-custom-scroller, use-infinite-scroll, use-abortable-effect, and smart-tooltip-delay or insights from our day-to-day work like Under the Hood: Developing Close's AI-Powered Call Assistant, Cutting our Lead page LCP by half, and Highlights From a Complex Downshift.js Refactor.
AI is both how we build and what we ship, and that's reshaped what engineering looks like. This is a transformation we’re embracing and find deeply exciting.
About the Role
The Growth team owns the surfaces that turn someone who just signed up into a paying customer who sticks around — onboarding, activation, billing and checkout. The operating mode is simple: find the fastest path to learning, ship it, then standardize and clean up. The Growth team ships in weeks what other teams might take months to do.
Two of our exciting projects right now:
-
Agent-forward experience. We're exploring how agents and AI can make the experience better for our customers and demonstrate the value of Close faster. Our focus is helping users get real value from the product, not just automating on their behalf.
-
Creating data from unstructured sources. We're building ways to turn the information customers
