Your Opportunity...

Want to help build something really big from its early days? Have the extraordinary talent and background that we need? Let's talk.

You'll get the best of startup life - a major leadership role at a nimble, up-and-coming business - along with the security of a top VC, health & dental insurance, 401(k) and benefits. As employee #9 (or less, how fast can you move?), you'll partner with the CEO (Laura Fitton, @pistachio) and Tech Lead (Mike Champion, @graysky) to round out our leadership team. You'll have direct board access, substantial equity and significant management control.

Your track record starting at least one successful consumer web company demonstrates: you can manage, you can convert vision to actionable strategy, and you think expansively about business models. You have solid marketplace/ecommerce experience and you are fascinated by "platform" as a business strategy. You're committed to building open, inclusive systems. Though a leader, you know everyone rolls up their sleeves at a startup to get "stuff" done.

Your ability to organize the big picture and shape a fast-moving startup will help the rest of the team do more, faster. We're driven by customer development and complete dedication to our community. We exist to give people the tools they need to innovate and build real businesses. We serve dual (consumer and developer) communities of an emergent two-sided marketplace.

You know how to motivate and inspire and you work well with a variety of disciplines and people. You have an entrepreneurial, empowered mindset. You expect to be held accountable but understand that thriving in an emergent space mandates risk-taking and rapid iteration.

You'll round out an all-star team notable for their connections, visibility, passion, technical excellence, courage and enthusiasm. We're moving fast and working with only A+ talent who truly "get" the long-term opportunity.
