DevCalloutSquareCambridge, MA, and Dublin, Ireland— Today, HubSpot, the inbound marketing software company, announced a $30,000 incentive program to reward individuals who refer developers and designers to the HubSpot team. HubSpot, which grew 82% in 2012, is rapidly expanding their team and expects to add significant development, design, and engineering resources within the next six months.


Of the announcement, HubSpot’s Chief Product Officer, David Cancel, stated: “At HubSpot, we’re disrupting the marketing industry and building a next-generation company, so it’s imperative that the software engineers and designers we add to the team are incredibly smart, innovative, agile, and passionate about the work we are doing. We believe that you’re defined by the company you keep, so the $30,000 referral bonus is our way of thanking people worldwide for bringing us the best and brightest developers in the industry to join HubSpot.”

The $30,000 fee will be paid to the referring individual after a candidate is hired by HubSpot, and applies only to software engineers and designers working on the product team. In addition to the bonus for their referring friend, all HubSpot employees receive tuition reimbursement, unlimited vacation (based on the company’s overarching policy to “use good judgment”), and the chance to be part of a rapidly growing company that is transforming marketing worldwide.

Elias Torres, VP of Engineering at HubSpot, added, “Boston and Dublin are among the fastest-growing innovation and tech hubs in the world, and we’ve built a team at HubSpot where developers get the autonomy they need to solve big problems, work on behalf of our customers, and find innovative solutions to challenges on a daily basis. We deploy more code on a daily basis than many companies do in a month, so people joining our team have the opportunity to make an impact on our team, our company, and the world of marketing each day they come to work.”

People interested in referring friends or colleagues can do so by submitting their information here. Referral bonuses are not relegated to HubSpot employees; anyone can participate.

Individuals cannot refer themselves, and the $30,000 bonus applies only to full time hires on the HubSpot  product development and engineering team. To read more about HubSpot’s development team culture, click here.
