About the company

Ando

Ando is building the world’s first AI infrastructure for the global hourly workforce – technology designed to finally fix the chronic mismatch between people, schedules, and demand. Every year in the U.S. more than 80 million hourly workers log over 140 billion hours, yet the systems responsible for staffing those hours remain deeply broken. Managers struggle to predict demand and build reliable schedules, while workers juggle multiple jobs, inconsistent hours, and impossible tradeoffs between shifts, childcare, and daily life. Businesses lose more than $5,800 each time an employee leaves, turnover regularly exceeds 150%, and many stores lose $5,000 or more per week simply because they do not have the right staffing when customers show up. Ando exists because this system is failing both sides. By giving workers predictable schedules that align with their lives and giving employers accurate AI-powered staffing intelligence, Ando reduces turnover, cuts labor waste, and brings stability to frontline operations.

Job description

About Ando

Ando is building AI-native workforce infrastructure for the 80M hourly workers in the U.S. and hundreds of millions globally.

Labor is the last broken supply chain. Forecasting, allocation, and professional identity remain fragmented across static tools and manual decision-making. Ando is rebuilding this system from first principles.

We start with highly accurate AI-generated demand forecasts, move to allocation-first labor optimization, and compound value through a persistent labor graph that captures skills, reliability, availability, and performance across time and employers. Over time, this becomes a professional identity layer and intelligent system serving both enterprises and frontline workers.

Ando is a Seed-stage company backed by Slow Ventures and experienced operators. We are live with real customers and entering a phase where architectural clarity, learning loops, and AI systems quality are foundational to long-term success.

Context

We are building our sales team to accelerate growth across restaurants in North America.

This is an early-stage role at a company with real traction and a clear path to scale. If you have sold into restaurants, understand the world of a GM or Ops Director, and want to help build something from the ground up, this role is for you.

The Role

You will own the full sales cycle for restaurants in the 10 to 50 location range. That means finding them, qualifying them, running the demo, and closing them.

You will also help manage those accounts once they are live, making sure they get value quickly and stay engaged.

What You Will Do

  • Run high-volume outbound to owner-operators and operations leaders at restaurant groups with 10 to 50 locations.

  • Lead demo calls that show prospects how Ando can help them forecast demand, improve staffing, and reduce schedule friction.

  • Close deals with urgency and ownership.

  • Manage pilots through paid conversion. Own the relationship from first call through renewal.

  • Work directly with the Head of Growth and leadership team on strategy, pipeline prioritization, and target accounts.

  • Bring customer feedback back to Product, Operations, and Customer Success so we keep building around real operator needs.

What We Are Looking For

  • Five or more years in a closing sales role, ideally selling SaaS to restaurant operators.

  • Fluency in the restaurant world.

  • A genuine preference for outbound.

  • Strong demo instincts. You know how to show value fast and get a decision in the room.

  • Comfort with start-up culture. The playbook is being written, and you will help write it.

  • A competitive streak. You want to win, and you want the team to win.

  • Clear communication, strong follow-through, and the ability to keep a pipeline honest.

Culture at Ando

Ando is a high-trust, high-care organization built on ownership, respect, and thoughtful collaboration.

We value diverse perspectives, clear communication, and personal accountability. We move fast through alignment rather than force, operate comfortably in ambiguity, and build with empathy for the enterprises and workers our systems serve.

These values are core to how we work. Candidates who share them tend to thrive at Ando.
