This role is remote, and you can be located anywhere in the US. The ideal candidate is an early-stage GTM expert with proven quota-carrying experience selling SaaS software to mortgage companies and credit unions, who we can build a team around.

What we're building

Every business that deals with insurance information has a tedious process of collecting it. They use long forms, phone calls and emails to collect the information they need to understand their prospects and customers. Canopy Connect is changing that. With our consumer consent-driven data model, an individual is able to instantly and securely share a copy of their insurance information with a business. Which means that our customers, business owners across America, can focus on the reasons they started their business in the first place, instead of spending so much time trying to collect the information they need to understand and onboard their customers.
