• Qualify inbound leads by scheduling calls, learning more about the prospective customer’s needs, and aligning their goals to Aeqium’s core capabilities
• Operate autonomously in a sometimes ambiguous environment

Ideal Candidates Will Have:

About Aeqium:

Compensation is one of the most consistent pain points for businesses today, and Aeqium is leading the charge to solve that. Employees struggle to understand their compensation; managers struggle to make and communicate compensation decisions; and the People team is left with a mess of spreadsheets and manual effort to try to make it all work. Aeqium is building a unified platform that automates compensation planning processes and delivers actionable insights on pay equality, total rewards, raises/refreshes, and more. Users are clamoring for the product as fast as we can build it. 

Our team has significant experience building products and scaling companies, from product-market fit through acquisition/IPO. We're well-capitalized by top VCs and experienced angels. Most importantly, we've experienced the problem that we're solving firsthand and understand it inside and out.

This is an exciting time to join Aeqium. While we already have paying customers, you'll be joining us in the midst of true green-field development as we rapidly expand our product to new customers. As a member of our early team you'll be a critical part of Aeqium's success, and you’ll have unlimited potential for growth.

Our team is located in SF and NYC. We have a hybrid work environment, and prefer candidates in those areas to enable some face to face time.
