About Kaizen

Automate anything on the web. Backed by a16z, Accel and NEA.

About the role

Kaizen is scaling to 100 people next year, and right now we have more open roles than recruiting horsepower to fill them. Every person we hire shapes the software that residents and public servants rely on to reach their government, so we can't afford to fill seats with whoever applies first. This role owns the top of the funnel: finding people who aren't looking, getting them on the phone, and carrying them all the way to a signed offer. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

More about this role

Government technology has failed citizens, veterans, public servants, and service members for decades.

Kaizen powers America’s application layer. We replace the legacy systems federal agencies run on with modern software, built with craft. The ticketing platform a resident uses to visit a presidential library. The marketplace DoW uses to procure counter-drone systems to protect lives and critical infrastructure. The system a Veteran uses to access benefits. We build systems of record, of national consequence. Our AI-native modules and harness allow us to do so in weeks, not years.

This year, our revenue has grown 35x. Next year, our software will serve over 100 million Americans across dozens of federal agencies.

Founded in 2022 and based in New York City and DC, Kaizen has raised $35 million from NEA, a16z, Accel, 776, and Carpenter Capital.

This is a hybrid role based out of our New York City HQ or our Washington, DC office. Candidates must reside in or be able to commute to one of those cities. In New York, you'll work from the office four days a week. In DC, you'll work from the office three days a week (Tuesdays through Thursdays).
