SendGrid Ramps Hiring Plans, Opens Denver Office

In a bid to expand its pool of employees, Boulder-based SendGrid said Wednesday that it has opened up a new, Denver office on Larimer Street as it looks to accelerate hiring at the company. SendGrid, which develops cloud-based, email delivery services to businesses, said that its new office will provide it with greater proximity to talent in Denver, and will supplement its existing headquartesr in Boulder. The firm said it had "dozens" of open positions, at all levels and job functions. SendGrid--which was part of TechStars back in 2009--said the new office comes on top of another office in Anaheim, California, and operations in New York, San Francisco and Germany. SendGrid is venture backed by Foundry Group, Highway 12 Ventures, Bessemer Venture Partners, and angel investors.
