About Harvest
Harvest is an independent software company that makes tools to help businesses run more smoothly. We believe that businesses only succeed by using their time intentionally. Our products support our customers through time tracking, reporting, and forecasting features.
Harvest started in 2006 as a team of three and has grown to today’s current total of just over
55 lovely faces. We’ve worked as a remote team since the beginning and we continue to hire the right people for the job no matter where they call home.
We also strive to create a workplace culture where everyone feels valued, included, and heard. One important aspect of this is continuing to create spaces for diverse life experiences and work histories. If you are a member of a group that is historically underrepresented and disadvantaged in tech, business, and society in general, we want to meet you and we encourage you to apply.
The Marketing Team and Why We’re Hiring
The Harvest Marketing Team currently consists of our Marketing Lead, one Marketing Manager, and one Marketing Designer. This is a team built on collaboration, not competition.

We are currently looking for a second Marketing Manager to join us and help increase the ability for this team to take on new projects or initiatives. Our new Marketing Manager will have the opportunity to learn and be mentored by our more senior marketing staff, while also maintaining ownership of specific tasks.
