**About Us**\n\nDistributors sell nearly every physical good you come across. Key to the economy, they make up over 28% of GDP. Despite its prominence, this is an industry that is vastly under-served by technology. As a result, itโs tough for distributors to grow and modernize their businesses. Thatโs why Proton exists. We provide an AI-powered sales enablement platform that actually helps distributors grow and stay competitive in an ever-evolving B2B selling environment.\n\nOur company is in hyper-growth mode. We've had significant year-over-year revenue growth, and we just raised a $20M [Series A](https://venturebeat.com/2022/01/18/proton-ai-raises-20m-to-optimize-wholesale-distributors-sales-operations/) backed by [Felicis Ventures](https://www.felicis.com/) (investors in Twitch, Shopify, Opendoor, and many others) and [Battery Ventures](https://www.battery.com/).

Focus on shortening time to value for customers. \n* Customer advocate: Support team working on existing integrations with Proton clients. Help align expectations with new clients. Be a customer escalation point. \n* Resourcing: Manage team resources for ongoing client projects, including forecasting capacity and establishing a hiring strategy. Develop processes and review tools to shorten integration timing. Help unblock and get existing integrations moving. \n* Team development: Build training processes for new engineers and services staff.

You seek to evolve decisions and directions as needed, learning from experience and feedback. \n* Autonomous Motivation: You take ownership of your own work, and thrive when given creative freedom. You help push the status quo to improve our processes and customer experience.\n\nWe know the confidence gap can get in the way of great candidates putting their hats in the ring.
