Lightbits Labs is looking for a high-energy driven and self-motivated individual to join the Sales team as a Business Development Associate. This is not a typical sales job where all you do is cold call- you’ll be working closely with our executives to research organizations that use high-performance cloud technology (almost everyone) and then reaching out to CEOs and CTOs of the biggest companies in the world. Not many jobs would have reach out directly to the CTO of companies like Netflix Uber NBA or go to networking events with the engineers that make technology like Tesla or Twitch. Becoming a Business Development Representative is the first step to a rewarding and lucrative career in software and hardware sales in Silicon Valley level technology orgs. Moreover this is a rare chance to enter the ‘high-tech’ world of hardware that powers and enables nearly every aspect of technology today- and the exciting tech of the future you’ll be exposed to. Hint: a simple search on our investors board and executive team will show how extraordinary of an opportunity this is. We’re welcoming driven individuals who are recent college graduates or looking to make a career change! As an Entry-level team member of a growing startup you will have the opportunity to join a globally tested executive team on the ground floor learn about the industry and set the foundation for career advancement. Take your first step by applying online today! About us: …Well during our meeting you’ll actually tell us what we do and what you researched about us 🙂 But to humble-brag a little: we’re a Dell – Intel – Micron – Cisco backed startup. Quick look at our Board and Founders will show there’s legit and heavy-hitting names backing us. We’re not just another tech company app or solution that claims to disrupt XYZ- our research and work are affecting anything tech related (in laymen’s terms). We invented the next standard of server technology- in other words any website app Netflix movie or instagram post would run on the back-end tech we’re advancing. But we can get into all that later. Hopefully that’s enough to highlight to you the cool work we’re doing? If not bring some questions to the interview! Perks and why we’re kinda awesome: • A VERY strong reward and appreciation culture- work hard play hard is kind of a cliche… but you work hard here we’ll make sure this is the best job ever for you. • Flexible work schedule and remote options • Generous vacation days • Very flat org- only 1-2 steps away from the CEO • Our work and solution nearly touches and enables nearly any kind of website/tech/software/app/service everybody uses- not many people can say that. You’ll be talking to companies like Uber Netflix Zoom Google Citi TikTok etc • Results Oriented management – no micromanaging at all. Just get your work and results done and you can have whatever work environment you want. • Not a traditional perk but the networking opportunities: You can check our founder’s and board’s last companies and how much they got sold for and to who. This is a unique chance to enter a very lucrative niche and a career where you can affect things everyone uses.
