About Pylon

Post-covid, businesses have started shifting the way they communicate with customers from email to chat platforms like Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Discord. At Pylon, we are building a real-time customer operations platform to help support, success, and sales teams at places like Hightouch, Merge, and Sardine scalably meet their customers where they live.

Just like how Zendesk made email scalable in a support context, Mailchimp made email scalable in a marketing context, and Salesforce & Outreach made email scalable in a sales context, Pylon is making chat scalable across customer-facing functions.

About the role

At Pylon, we're building the future of B2B Post Sales.

We’re building the all-in-one B2B post-sales support platform powered by conversational data and layered with intelligence to help our customers run their operations in real-time.

  • Lead security review processes: SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, bug bounty programs

  • Jump into pre- and post-sales conversations as the security stakeholder

  • Help us move fast while keeping the right guardrails in place
