Wholesail is a technology startup that builds software to connect wholesalers and their buyers. The company’s first product is an automated invoicing, payment and communication platform that integrates with the accounting systems of wholesale sellers to allow them to get paid faster and decrease losses. For buyers, Wholesail automates the accounts payable process to save them time and money. Wholesail’s initial industry focus is on building a network effect driven payment business in the highly fragmented $1+ trillion US food and beverage distribution market, in which invoicing and payment is nearly entirely manual and paper-driven today. Wholesail was founded by a team of serial entrepreneurs, product managers, engineers and designers who have worked together for nearly a decade. The company is well funded with backing from several venture capital firms and angel investors including early executives and team members from Stripe, Square, Dropbox, Yelp, OpenTable and Everlane. We are looking for highly motivated people to join us on our mission to modernize wholesale trade. If you are passionate about the craft of software engineering or building customer relationships, drop us a line.

PLACE is an end-to-end technology and business services platform designed to simplify the real estate lifecycle for both consumers and their real estate agents. We partner exclusively with leading real estate teams, regardless of brokerage, in 100+ locations across the United States and Canada. Some of the nation’s top producing real estate teams choose to partner with PLACE because, unlike many of the other tech companies in our industry, we feel cutting-edge proptech should support the hardest working agents instead of eliminating them. At the forefront of our business is a consumer services model that takes the guesswork out of real estate. Clients of PLACE-powered agents will have access to a one-stop shop that streamlines the traditionally complicated process of buying, selling, maintaining, and investing in properties. Our upcoming products include in-house mortgage brokers, title and escrow services, an insurance portal, and a home improvement network referral system, among other exciting initiatives. In addition, PLACE’s proprietary technology and business services platform helps agents offload up to 75% of their operations tasks so they can focus on being a key advisor to their clients. PLACE partners value relationships over transactions because we take care of team accounting, bookkeeping, human resources, in-house legal, design and marketing, talent acquisition, business training and coaching. Agents within PLACE-powered teams have access to employee-like benefits that are notoriously unavailable to Realtors, even at the highest production levels. Our industry is changing and we want to bring the best candidates along for the ride. We are actively recruiting for new PLACE partners, open positions within our headquarters team, and on behalf of existing PLACE partners across the US. If you want to contribute to changing the real estate transaction and homeownership process for the better, join us today.
