We exist so that professionals end each day feeling happier, more productive, and closer to achieving their potential.
Our customers get through their inboxes twice as fast; many see inbox zero for the first time in years.
Today we are…
The fastest email experience in the world
Loved and adored: see what our customers say
📣 We've joined forces with Grammarly to build the AI-native productivity suite of the future, with Superhuman as the central communication layer. This partnership accelerates our mission to help professionals achieve their potential — now at even greater scale.
Come shape the future of email, communication, and productivity!
BUILD LOVE 💜At Superhuman, we deeply understand how to build products that people love. We incorporate fun and play; we infuse magic and joy; we make experiences that amaze and delight.
It all starts with the right team — a team that deeply cares about values, customers, and each other.
CREATE MASSIVE IMPACT 🚀We're not solving a small problem, and we're not addressing a small market. We're going after email; the one activity that consumes more of our work day than any other.
Our ambition doesn't stop there. Next: calendars, notes, contacts, and team communication. We are building the productivity platform of the future.
DO THE BEST WORK OF YOUR LIFE 🌟We have created the frameworks for how to build product market fit and redefined the narrative of how to onboard customers successfully. We have shown the world it’s possible to build a premium productivity brand. Our investors included Andreessen Horowitz, First Round Capital, IVP, Tiger Global Management, Sam Altman, and the founders of Gmail, Dropbox, Reddit, Discord, Stripe, GitHub, AngelList, and Intercom.
This time, we’re swinging beyond the fences and fundamentally rethinking how individuals and teams should collaborate. We are building a household brand and a worldwide organization. We are here to do the best work of our lives, and we hope you are too.

Experience: You have 10+ years of experience contributing to engineering teams including 2+ years of experience leading teams.
Hands-on Leadership: Our managers act as CTOs. You are hands on. You sometimes take the player/coach role. You drive technology choices, you review PR on a daily basis, you occasionally jump and code yourself. You drive incidents may they arise. You drive ceremonies: grooming, sizing, planning and execution. You have the ability to work at different altitude.
Technologist: You're naturally curious and your curiosity is not limited to a specific stack. You embrace technology as a wide space. Enthusiast or cautiously optimistic, you know AI is revolutionizing both how we work and the experiences we create for our customers. Driven by passion and curiosity, you embrace technology to up-level your team's productivity and impact, creating delight, delivering exceptional quality, and embracing the extraordinary in everything you do.
User Empathy: You don’t just build software that works — you build experiences that feel magical. You sweat the small stuff, especially the details that shape how our product looks, feels, and performs in the hands of our users. You understand that micro-interactions, visual polish, and perceived speed are not “nice to have,” they are core to the experience. You work closely with Design and Product to uphold a high-quality bar — from pixel-perfect UI to graceful edge-case handling. You push for elegant solutions, even when they require extra effort, because you know the user will feel the difference.
Grit: Competition won't wait and strong execution makes a significant difference. You have high level of decisiveness and you do not wait to get things done. You have courage, passion, and the ability to persevere towards challenging goals. You are comfortable in a fast-paced environment and are agile enough to shift your focus to what is most important for our customers. Your work ethic stands out.
Bias to Action: You move with urgency — not recklessness. You understand that speed compounds, and that forward motion beats perfect planning. You take decisive steps even when the path isn’t fully clear, trusting that momentum fuels clarity. You break inertia, test assumptions, and ship to learn. You don’t wait for perfect data or perfect alignment — you act, learn, and iterate quickly. As an engineering leader, you model a culture where action unlocks insight. You empower your team to move fast and own the consequences, creating fast feedback loops between idea, execution, and outcome. When progress stalls, you unblock. When ambiguity reigns, you narrow the decision space. Because at Superhuman, velocity isn’t a nice-to-have — it’s how we win.
Start-to-finish Ownership: You take full responsibility — not just for the code your team ships, but for the outcomes it drives. You think like a CTO: zooming out to see the business impact, zooming in to notice when the details are off. You don’t stop at “done” — you stop when it works, when it’s shipped, when it’s adopted, and when the result moves the needle for our users and our company. You don’t hand off problems. You don’t assume someone else will catch what you missed. You chase ambiguity, collapse blockers, and hold the bar high until the last mile. You know that great teams don’t just build features — they deliver results — and you make sure that happens. At Superhuman, your ownership is visible in the confidence we have in you: when something is in your hands, we know it will get done, and get done right.
Cares deeply, challenges directly: You bring radical candor to every interaction: direct, clear, and always in service of excellence. You push hard on ideas, not people — because you care deeply about the craft, the customer, and the company. You speak up early and often, surfacing dissent, probing assumptions, and sharpening decisions through thoughtful debate. You hold your peers and stakeholders accountable to impact — not activity — and challenge them to aim higher when needed. You also know when the conversation is over. When your point has been heard, you align behind the decision with full commitment, even if you disagreed. You create a culture where tension is healthy, feedback is expected, and psychological safety is preserved — because you know that true collaboration happens when people feel safe and challenged.
