About UserEvidence
While we are a fast growing remote-first tech startup, we prioritize a fulfilling and stable lifestyle for our employees. We have a real opportunity to get to $50M/yr+ in recurring revenue within 4-6 years and see a large exit, but we’re going to do so in a smart and sane way that is financially prudent and ensures that any exit substantially benefits all employees rather than simply founders and investors. We’ve raised a $4.5M from great investors including Afore.vc, Founders Collective, GTMFund), and FirstMile Ventures.

We want everyone to have a good work-life balance - there will of course be (a lot of) times where we’re grinding, but we want to enjoy the journey, not only the destination. Remote work and flexibility will be key, and we will also bring together our team in Jackson Hole (or other cool locations) once a year.

Our culture is one that prioritizes creativity, honest and open communication, transparency, smart risk-taking, humility, and growth.
