Job description

About StartEngine
 
StartEngine is the FinTech powerhouse driving the future of fundraising and alternative investing. StartEngine was founded by Howard Marks, the co-founder of Activision (now valued at over $75B), with the goal of helping entrepreneurs achieve their dreams by removing funding barriers. Howard partnered with co-founder Ron Miller, a veteran entrepreneur and early advocate of equity crowdfunding, to build a platform that democratizes access to capital. In 2020, StartEngine welcomed Shark Tank judge and serial entrepreneur Kevin O’Leary (aka Mr. Wonderful) as Strategic Advisor and Investor. Since its inception, StartEngine has helped over 550 companies raise more than $1.5B from retail investors, with investments starting at as little as $100.
 
Why merely back a company when you can own a piece of it?
 
As a Business Development Representative on our Private Markets team, you’ll be on the front lines of one of the fastest-growing areas in finance: private and secondary market investing. You’ll engage accredited investors through outbound and inbound outreach, spark interest in exclusive pre-IPO opportunities, and set high-quality discovery calls for our Private Equity Associates.
 
This role is designed for ambitious, sharp communicators who want to break into fintech, private markets, or high-performance sales. You’ll gain direct exposure to sophisticated investors, private securities, and a proven sales organization—making this an exceptional entry point into a long-term career at StartEngine.

  • 4 year Bachelor's degree (or equivalent)
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Comfort making outbound calls and engaging investors professionally
  • Experience in finance, investing, fintech, or private markets
  • Highly organized, disciplined, and results-driven mindset
  • Coachable, curious, and motivated to grow into a sales or investing role
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, performance-oriented environment
  • Must live and work permanently in the United States
  •  

    Why This Role Matters
  • Front-row seat to private and secondary markets as they scale rapidly
  • Direct exposure to accredited investors and real investment conversations
  • Clear growth path into Private Equity Associate or other sales leadership roles
  • Learn how sophisticated capital is raised, allocated, and deployed
  • Join a fintech company actively shaping the future of alternative investing
