Why you should join Response

What we're building

Response is organizing the world’s inventory – making it universally accessible and useful. We make it easy for businesses to shop all their vendors in one place. From one person operations to publicly-traded companies, teams that use Response cut ordering time in half and save on supplies with the vendors they already use.

Traction

We're still in private beta, but we're already working with dozens of warehouse teams across 25 states at amazing companies like Aterian (NASDAQ: ATER), Saltbox, and more. We've built the world's largest catalog of industrial products (20 million SKUs and growing) across dozens of the US's top industrial suppliers.

Funding

We are well-funded and backed by institutional investors like Y Combinator and Twenty Two Ventures, as well as founders and operators behind game-changing companies like Flexport, Ramp, Anduril, Scale AI, and more.

Team

We’re a small but mighty team of 7: two technical co-founders (Kais & Keivan), four engineers (Jess, Justin, Zach, Renato), and one growth lead (Timon). By early 2024, we will be 15 people strong.

We’ve spent years relentlessly focused on understanding the biggest challenges facing B2B purchasing. We started off learning about these challenges in the humanitarian sector building enterprise software to help procurement teams automate the tendering process. When the COVID-19 crisis hit the world, we dropped everything to help: giving our technology to healthcare teams so they could quickly source life-saving PPE. For a time, we even became procurement officers ourselves – providing our services (and up to 30% in savings) to other high-growth startups.

Why join now?

We have a clear initial target customer (e.g., warehouse ops teams) & sales playbook and are building something people want. At the same time, we've only taken our first step towards a significantly larger opportunity (i.e., the multi-trillion $$$ industrials market in the US). Like any startup, our product and GTM roadmap is ever-evolving, but it's never been clearer. In short, it's the perfect time to join and we can't wait to meet you.

Meet the team

Why should somebody consider working at Response?
Environment and culture. Our founders make it a fun and exciting place for remote work. The balance between individual work and team work is something I really appreciate - you will never feel alone when challenges occur, and everyone is great at communicating when help is needed in certain areas.
