About Appspace:

At Appspace, we’re passionate about creating better work experiences for people everywhere, and we’re looking for people that feel the same way. Our global office locations and flexible work culture help you work wherever and however you’re at your best. Plus, we take the time to help you enjoy your work, build lasting connections, and grow your role. Join the Appspace team and be a part of a culture that’s helping people everywhere love where they work.

Your Role as a Sales Engineer: 

At Appspace, a Sales Engineer isn’t just a technical expert—they’re a storyteller. They translate our platform’s features, design choices, and architecture into clear, purposeful narratives that show customers not just what the product does, but why it works the way it does. This role sits at the intersection of product, engineering, and sales, helping people understand the intent behind each interaction. 

The ideal candidate sees software the way great product thinkers do: as a system of intentional decisions. They can explain why certain elements belong where they are, how design shapes user behavior, and when simplicity or restraint matters.They’re also someone who genuinely loves technology. They experiment with new tools, tinker with apps, try emerging AI products, and pay attention to interface and workflow design because great digital experiences matter to them. That curiosity and enthusiasm are essential.

Finally, they understand the internal communications space. Experience with intranet or employee communications platforms—SharePoint, Workvivo, Firstup, Staffbase, Unily, Igloo, and others—is a significant advantage. The strongest candidates know the comms buyer, their goals, constraints, and what real employee engagement looks like.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
