We are a twelve-person team located in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Our product Ambition is 'Fantasy F**tball for Sales Organizations' where employers can select and weight metrics for employee-based teams to compete over across seasons. You can check out a demo here: http://tryambition.com

 

(The word f**tball is not permitted because of spam, FYI)

 

The gamification layer we provide increases productivity and morale while decreasing turnover and burnout because we focus on long-term results. Our customers have witnessed significant increases in output and profitability and Ambition is currently generating revenue and integrating with new customers weekly. We are a start-up with momentum and are looking for somebody to join us during a very exciting time.

 

Our ideal candidate is somebody with extensive Force.com knowledge who also possesses familiarity with python/django. In addition they thrive in a less-traditional work environment (read: start-up) where freedom and flexibility trump structure and hierarchy. They enjoy challenges, comraderie, and the occasional pedantic debate.

 

Responsibilities:

 

  • Integrate Ambition with the SalesForce platform. We fully expect for this to be a tiered process starting with REST and iFrames eventually leading to native development. It is more important for us to learn and adapt to SalesForce specific use cases and customer needs over time than to simply 'crank out an app'.
  • Help train an existing employee to provide platform redundancy, help hire a new employee to grow your platform team.
  • Understand our stack, constraints, and roadmap. Speak up when you have opinions. Become an integral part of the team.

We will consider remote work for exceptional candidates but we strongly prefer that you can work alongside us in Chattanooga. With that being said we are considering opening up a San Francisco satellite office so hopefully you will be the reason for us to pull the trigger.

 

We are not looking to work with a development shop right now. Please refrain from contacting us.

 

Feel free to send resumes and/or cover letters to travis.truett@ambition.io

 

What we generally like to hear from candidates:

 

  • Why working for Ambition interests you
  • Why you are the right person for the job
  • Any demo/product feedback

What we generally like to see from candidates:

 

  • Side projects
  • Blog posts
  • Short, relevant resumes

Thank you in advance for your time and I'm looking forward to speaking further with you.

My team has been working on a product called Ambition for the last eight months. Premise is 'Fantasy F**tball for Sales Organizations' where the managers choose and weight metrics and the employees form teams and compete over them. Demo is available here: http://tryambition.com 

 

(FYI, had to ** out foot because apparently F**tball is a word not permitted in this community).

 

We are currently working within the logistics industry and have integrated with several proprietary databases. Looking to integrate with SalesForce but we are a small team and don't have the time/expertise right now to build a native application. With that being said we realize the enormous potential that the platform offers us and we would love to get something out the door as soon as possible, ideally a way to tap into a SalesForce customer's CRM and pull the data into our own system and website.

 

 

Is it possible for an AppExchange-downloaded app to "simply" embed an Ambition nav unit that will open up Ambition in a seperate window/tab?

Any specific documentation, tips, tricks we should know before getting started?

 

Our stack is python/django/aws..

 

Thanks in advance,

Travis
