PEOPLE WHO THRIVE HERE: Entrepreneurial, willing to experiment, embrace new technology, try new things Comfortable with ambiguity and rapidly changing priorities. Change is normal and happens quickly at startups. You have experience experimenting, learning, and pivoting with your learnings. Take ownership of your projects, your deadlines, your functions, your calendar, your own destiny. People who thrive at a startup like ours have a bias toward action and documentation. Communicate directly and with clarity. Working cross-functionally is an essential part of any role at Counterpart. You’ll succeed by conjoining expectations with others and holding all accountable.  THE HARD PARTS: We're early, and that's not always comfortable. Counterpart is still a young company, which means some processes, tools, and norms are still being built in real time. You may encounter situations where the answer doesn't exist yet — and you'll be expected to help create it rather than wait for someone else to. The feedback culture is real. We mean it when we say speak boldly and honestly. That goes both ways — you'll be expected to give direct feedback and to receive it without defensiveness. If you've spent your career in environments where difficult conversations get softened or avoided, that adjustment can take time. Distributed work requires more intentionality. There's no office to drop by, no hallway conversation to clear up a misunderstanding. Staying connected, communicating proactively, and building relationships across a remote team takes real effort; it doesn't happen automatically here. We move fast and expect you to keep up. Counterpart operates with a bias toward action. Decisions get made quickly, priorities can shift, and we don't wait for perfect information. If you're used to slower, more deliberate organizational rhythms, the pace here can be a genuine adjustment. You're expected to own your outcomes. There's a high degree of autonomy here, which is a feature, but it also means there's no one looking over your shoulder to catch things before they become problems. The people who thrive take that ownership seriously and hold themselves accountable without being asked.

Ensure you are aware of what is expected of you and clearly articulate what you expect of others.  Speak Boldly & Honestly - the only failure is not learning from mistakes. Don’t cheat yourself and your colleagues of the feedback needed when  expectations aren’t being met.  Be Entrepreneurial - control your own destiny.  Embrace action over perfection while navigating any obstacles that stand in the way of your ultimate goal.  Practice Omotenashi (“selfless hospitality”) - trust will follow.  Consider every interaction with internal and external partners an opportunity to develop trust by going above and beyond what is expected.  Hold Nothing As Sacred - create routines but modify them routinely.   Take the time to reflect on where the business is today, where it needs to  go, and what you have to change in order to get there.  Prioritize Wellness - some things should never be sacrificed. We create an environment that stretches everyone to grow and improve, which is fulfilling, but is only one part of a meaningful life. Our estimated pay range for this role is $120,000 to $170,000.
