See all open positions in GhentNot too long ago, the HubSpot Ghent team was part of PieSync. Founded in 2012, PieSync's goal was to find the best way for businesses to synchronize data across applications. The team succeeded in this mission and became one of the best-reviewed iPaaS in the market. In 2019, HubSpot acquired PieSync after identifying it as a key element to help even more businesses grow better. As part of the HubSpot family, PieSync transitioned into Data Sync - the foundation of Operations Hub.
Life on the Ghent team is rooted in autonomy. The team trusts you with the freedom to decide how, when, and where you work best. And, with great autonomy comes great responsibility. You're empowered to make a difference and have an impact.
In Ghent, we have a strong culture of transparency. Sharing information and ideas openly across the team helps us move quickly and lets us approach challenges from different perspectives.
Our team is driven by people who are deeply passionate about their work, but also about their lives outside of work. Together, we're passionate about our products and solutions, the problems we're solving, and above all, about reaching our common goal of helping our customers, partners, and each other grow better.
Fun is the sauce that flavors all we do. You can sign up for a massage every first Friday of the month, and play darts or ping-pong during lunch any day of the week. And something we kept from our days as PieSync is our love for pies. We believe anything is a good excuse to get a pie: birthdays, welcoming new employees, or just because we feel like it.
What's one thing most people don't know about you?
I do triathlons and learn Spanish in my free time, sometimes simultaneously.
What's one thing you love about HubSpot's company culture?
Here's the secret - it’s the people. Whether it’s helping out with a technical problem or playing a ping-pong game over lunch, they’re the main driving force behind this remarkable company.
What is your role and what does an average day look like?
I’m a Senior Software Engineer working on the Data Sync frontend. What's the difference between a good sync and a great sync? The UI. A sync could be a black box, but here at HubSpot, we have a different vision. We’re creating a command center that delivers real sync insights for our customers. Sync stuck? Don’t worry, HubSpot has your back! No stone is left unturned to give our customers a delightful sync experience. Using physics to visualise the sync or applying binary search to provide a good scrolling experience, is not out of the ordinary.

I like how I get to be creative and look for opportunities.
