About the Team

Outreach is a unicorn startup that has created a new software category - a Sales Execution Platform to empower sales teams to create and close pipeline in a single system. We make the lives of sales reps easier, more efficient and more impactful by streamlining day-to-day workflows and building ground-breaking tools that give them super powers. We have an outstanding daily/monthly active user ratio and a responsibility to make our user’s daily lives better. Our product design mission is to create user experiences that “earn sales rep love”.

The Role
