About ProPhone
ProPhone believes that home service pros and small businesses are the backbone of the economy and have gone too long without the right technologies. We are building "shopify for service businesses" to help home service professionals grow their business online through an auto-generated website and marketing automation tools.
ProPhone is co-founded by Nick Ornitz (CEO) and Shannon Kay (CPO). We're a YC-backed and just closed a recent round of funding and are growing rapidly (>300% in 2022 already)! We are looking for Sales Interns that want to contribute to this growth going forward.
We care deeply about a culture that is inclusive and equitable for people of all backgrounds and experiences. We particularly encourage people from communities that tend to be underrepresented to apply, including but not limited to women, people of color, and people who identify as LGBTQ+.
We believe “great candidates” do not come about through simply a checkmark next to past experiences. We believe in hiring people not just skills. Even if you do not check every box but find excitement at the prospect of working with us in this capacity, please apply.
