  • Exceptional written and verbal communication

  • Entrepreneurial experience and mindset - you are excited about building things from scratch and are able to identify issues and execute quickly

  • Ability to come up with creative solutions to complex, ambiguous operational problems

What you'll do:

  • Own end-to-end customer engagements: building relationships to ensuring seamless project delivery and quality.

  • Leverage Paraform’s recruiter capacity: drive revenue and aligning operations with customer needs.

  • Serve as the voice of the customer: you’ll advocate for an exceptional 12-star experience to advance their goals while working cross-functionally with sales, product, engineering, and founders.
