Writing to someone at Merge

  1. Find the person

    For a role, that's the hiring manager or whoever leads the team. The posting, Merge's team page or LinkedIn usually names them.

  2. Write their name as Merge does

    Lowercase, with accents dropped: Jane Doe is jane@merge.dev, and Zoë Núñez would be zoe@merge.dev.

  3. Check it before you send

    An email verifier tells you whether the mailbox exists without sending anything. A bounce costs more than the check: too many and your emails start landing in spam.
