  • Represent Sequence at industry events, dinners and conferences with our target personas

  • Build relationships with our a16z, VC and dense angel network to build and close high quality logos across the US

  • Develop the Sequence culture in our US office, demonstrating the level of speed and ownership that have resulted in our strongest year of growth to date

  • 👎 You prefer a slower pace. We're tackling real problems for our customers today, so we need to move quickly

  • 👎 Want all of the benefits that come with an larger, established tech company
