Building your own software engineer list costs 2.3 to 3.6 cents a contact, and the same plan sends the emails.

A prebuilt file is a one-time download that starts going stale the day you buy it. In Lead Finder you choose exactly which software engineers go in, add more whenever you need them, and the plan that pays for the credits also sends the emails.

Way to get the listWhat you payCost per contact
Emailchaser Pro$97 a month with 5,000 lead credits and 125,000 emails a month included2.3 cents
Emailchaser Starter$47 a month with 1,500 lead credits and 5,000 emails a month included3.5 cents
Emailchaser extra credits$33 per 1,000 credits, or $20 per 1,000 when you buy 5,000 or more; bought credits never expire2.3 to 3.6 cents

Sources: Emailchaser plans and credit prices from emailchaser.com/pricing, read 17 October 2026 (1 lead credit adds 1 person; plan credits refresh monthly). Each Emailchaser cost includes checking the address at most twice, $0.0034, which is on by default. Cost per contact is the price divided by the contacts it buys.

Find the commit behind the error at {{company}}

Hi {{first_name}}, our error tracker links each crash to the commit and the engineer who last touched that code, so the right person gets the alert. Want to try it on a staging service this week?

Write a short sequence with follow-ups, and Emailchaser sends it from your own mailboxes on a schedule.

Example campaign and email, invented for this page. The count is real.

Developer tool makers, coding schools and recruiters use software engineer lists to reach the people who write and ship code.

A software engineer writes, tests and maintains the code a company runs on, and often has a say in the tools the team adopts, from error tracking and databases to testing and deployment. Engineers read emails that are short, technical and respect their time, and they judge a tool by whether it saves them a step. The person with the budget is usually an engineering manager or a CTO, so use this list for tools an engineer can try for free, and the CTOs list for purchases. Filter by seniority and company size to separate staff engineers at large companies from the first engineer at a startup.

These are the questions people ask about software engineer email lists.

How many software engineers can I reach with Emailchaser?

Lead Finder holds 483,726 US contacts with a software engineer job title with a verified work email, from a live count on 12 November 2026. The count changes as people change jobs, so the number you see in Lead Finder on the day you search is the one that counts.

Can I filter software engineers by state, city or company size?

Yes. Lead Finder filters by country, state and city, by seniority (for example owner, partner or director), by company size from 1-10 employees up to 10,001+, and by job title, revenue and the technology a company uses. Combine them freely, and the count updates before you spend anything.

How much does a software engineer email list cost on Emailchaser?

Searching and counting are free. Each person you add uses 1 lead credit. Plans include 1,500 credits a month on Starter ($47), 5,000 on Pro ($97) and 10,000 on Max ($358), and extra credits cost $33 per 1,000, or $20 per 1,000 when you buy 5,000 or more. Checking each address is billed apart from credits, at $0.0017 a check. The 7-day free trial includes 500 lead credits.

Does the list include senior, staff and lead software engineers?

Yes. The count includes every job title that contains software engineer, so senior, staff, lead and principal software engineers are in it. Titles such as developer, programmer or backend engineer without the words software engineer are not, so add them as separate job titles in Lead Finder.

Are the emails verified?

Lead Finder only returns people whose work email has a verified status. When you add them, Emailchaser checks each address again (on by default, $0.0017 a check, one or two checks an address), and an address that fails is dropped without using a credit.

Is it legal to send cold email to software engineers?

In the United States, the CAN-SPAM Act allows commercial email to business addresses when you identify yourself honestly, use an accurate subject line, include a postal address and honour every opt-out. Rules are stricter in some other countries, such as under GDPR in Europe.
