Business Developer

Salary Competitive
Equity To be negotiated

Mavenoid helps people at some of the world’s most important organizations diagnose and solve problems. We can do a hundred different things but can only succeed with the right new partnerships and deals. We’re looking for a creative, hard-working business developer who want to grow quickly into a future leader in the organization. The role requires grappling with technical concepts and thriving in a highly data-driven environment and engineering culture.


WHAT YOU’LL DO

Mavenoid helps people troubleshoot smarter. We can do many different things but can only win with the right new partnerships and relationships. We’re looking for a creative business developer who want to quickly grow into a future leader in the organization. The role requires wrestling with abstract technical concepts and thriving in an engineering culture.
 
Your main responsibilities:
  • Identify and reach out to potential customers
  • Understand their challenges and opportunities deeply
  • Sign our next customers, but only if there is a great match
  • Cultivate authentic relationships (no “networking” please)
  • Make sure our product development team are in sync with our customers’ needs

WHO YOU ARE

  • You get important things done. You have a track record of running complex projects and closing deals.
  • You have lots of raw horsepower. You are smart, creative and think well on your feet.
  • You are a great writer, and are easy to talk to. You are articulate and can communicate well with both the internal team (engineers) as well as with the customer.
  • You have grit. Sometimes you need to keep knocking at a door over and over until someone finally answers. Deals can take a long time and a lot of back and forth. You don’t give up towards the very end to “just close the deal” and leak value.
  • You sweat the small stuff. You read every word of every contract, including all the legal language, so that you can catch gotchas and think through the implications of what the contract says.
  • Bonus: You have studied both science/engineering and business/economics

WHAT WE OFFER

The upsides of joining a small company early: outsized impact, real ownership and accountability, hard problems, faster learning, quicker decisions, less bureaucracy, and real equity (so you don’t have to worry about money ever again if we succeed) combined with a fair salary structure (so you don’t have to worry about money now no matter what).

CULTURE

  • Spikiness – You have at least one superpower, and multiple weaknesses are not just ok but expected
  • Selective Intensity – You are an 80/20 person who get the right things done
  • Intellectual Honesty – You are radical about truth and are candid to a fault
  • Self-guidance – You don’t wait to be told what to do, ever
  • Eternal Troubleshooting – You don’t tolerate brokenness, and establish loops that identifies and fixes it
  • Hemingwayness – You are a great writer
