Jethro is a fast-growing, VC-funded startup on the cutting-edge of big data. We’ve developed a sophisticated technology that solves an acute business pain for thousands of companies — and many thousands to come. We make querying vast amount of data (and we’re talking vast) a day-to-day, productive business activity. That’s not trivial.
What’s also not trivial is the kind of sales person we need to get the word out about this breakthrough. We’re looking for an experienced sales professional who is excited about closing deals for a technical product that makes a profound business impact.
This is an opportunity to join a game-changing startup at an early stage in which you can make your mark.
