Technical First Line Support, Surfe

I'm working on really varied projects, with a focus on bringing value. The work I do here makes good use of my skillset, and means I'm never bored.

Ownership is a key part of life at Surfe. You're given a great deal of trust to do your job well and work independently. It's a very low-touch environment, with no micro-managing.

The assumption at Surfe is that you are always working hard, so there are never any questions about flexible working. Some days I might start a little later, and some days I might finish a little later. There's a lot of balance.

When I joined Surfe as a Backend Engineer, I quickly transitioned into a role focused on becoming a Tech Lead and learning how to manage a team. We offer numerous learning opportunities for all developers, and with our ambitious product plans, that will allow everybody to learn new technologies.

The team at Surfe is incredible! We foster an inclusive environment where everyone is encouraged to share their opinions and ideas. Despite being a remote company, I’ve had the opportunity to connect with my colleagues on a personal level.

We are a remote team spread across Europe and beyond, and we don’t impose any core hours. Our focus is on allowing you to work during your most productive times—just be available for a few meetings!

I have worked in Surfe (ex-Leadjet) for more than 2 years and every year we face newer & bigger projects; so it's never boring & forces you to grow. The team is quite diverse (mostly engineers) but they are all super helpful and friendly. Everyone in the team has the same goal - to help Surfe succeed, so they would do their utmost best to grow the KPI of their department.

I interacted a lot with the founders and they're one-of-a-kind leaders who would challenge you with out of the box ideas then trust you to execute them in the most efficient way possible. They are very transparent in communicating financial earning or spending plan. Since we are open, the team leaders are more comfortable in showing vulnerability or admitting mistakes, making it a better environment to work in.

Since the start of Surfe (ex-Leadjet) my role has evolved 3x so that it best fit their need and my career plan. My salary has also grown according to the responsibility required from me. Throughout my 2+ years here the MRR has grown from 3 digit to 6 digit and the team has grown from 1 to 30 people.

We take ownership on the tasks, present them and always get support and compliments from the team. :) And ability to take bigger projects if you wish to participate in them.

Founders are open-minded, welcoming and are always there to answer your questions, to help you or to give a motivation boost to continue great work.

The team is just amazing! It's my best experience so far! They're not only professional but also all super nice people. There're many different nationalities in the team and it works super well.

We're tackling the tremendous challenge of making Revenue teams more efficient at Surfe, and the energy is amazing. Everyone is giving their best, knows how to work as a team and have fun, but also takes on responsibilities if they feel like it. This brings the whole company to another level and makes this place a very stimulating and enjoyable one to grow with.

As with most growing companies, the opportunities to learn and grow with Surfe are near endless. When I joined the company in 2022, the list of things to do was super long, but also very interesting to tackle, as this encourages people to be driven by learning more! And as the company keeps growing, responsibilities and challenges shift, so the learning never stops!

Surfe brings a new wave of energy to the startup world! It is not your "traditional" startup world where everyone thinks alike, but rather a blend of 15 nationalities which all have their own unique traits and makes the day-to-day work even more fun! And while we all come from very different backgrounds, we all act in one forward motion which makes us confirm our diversity is our strength!
