How we work?

It’s all about being Happier first. And rest follows. Searce work culture is defined by HAPPIER.

• Humble: Happy people don’t carry ego around. We listen to understand; not to respond.

• Adaptable: We are comfortable with uncertainty. And we accept changes well. As that’s what life's about.

So, what are we 'searcing' for ?

1. We’re looking for enthusiastic sales folks who are passionate about finding futuristic and meaningful technology solutions for customers’ needs.
2. To be a successful candidate, some technical aptitude is crucial. Experience with programming, software development or IT sales would be valuable, as would familiarity with the public cloud market.
3. You are a person that people like to be around. You are not a CAVE (Constantly Against Virtually Everything) personality.
4. “Can-Do” uber-positive attitude, coupled with a very strong client service orientation and a great communicator, at all management levels.

Are you the one? Quick self-discovery test:

1. Love for cloud: When was the last time your dinner entailed an act on “How would ‘Jerry Seinfeld’ pitch Cloud platform & products to this prospect” and your friend did the ‘Sheldon’ version of the same thing.
2. Passion for sales: When was the last time you went at a remote gas station while on vacation, and ended up helping the gas station owner saasify his 7 gas stations across other geographies.
3. Compassion for customers: You listen more than you speak.  When you do speak, people feel the need to listen.
4. Humor for life: When was the last time you told a concerned CEO, ‘If Elon Musk can attempt to take the humanity to Mars, why can’t we take your business to run on cloud?’

If something similar to the above did happen but it was more than 12 months ago, you are a dinosaur for our needs. We seek techie humorists, people who can connect with people, and if you also understand AWS Cloud, it’s a super plus. But if you don’t, you better be ‘Jerry Seinfeld’ and if you are, please continue reading further….
