Hi! I'm the founder of SUpost, the trusted online marketplace for the Stanford University community. We're the go-to spot where Stanford students buy and sell stuff, find roommates, score concert tickets, hire tutors, and connect with each other. Think of us as the friendly, university-only version of Facebook Marketplace, OLX or Craigslist — except people actually trust us.

We serve 131,000 users every year, we're profitable, and we've been around for over a decade. Now we're ready for our next adventure: expanding to more elite universities around the world — and we want you on the team to help make it happen.

This isn't a role where you'll be stuck in spreadsheets all day (though we do love a good spreadsheet). You'll be working directly with me, the founder, on the actual fun stuff that makes a startup grow.

What You'll Actually Do (the fun part)

Business development — help us figure out which universities to launch in next and how to win them over
Customer discovery — talk to real students, learn what they love (and hate), and bring those insights back to shape the product
Product design input — share ideas on how the website should look, feel, and work for students
Campus outreach — help us reach students at new universities and grow our community
Founder collaboration — brainstorm, strategize, and execute together on growth experiments
You'll learn what it actually takes to scale an online marketplace — not in theory, but by doing it.

Tools We Use

Google Sheets & Docs
Dropbox Paper
Telegram
Zoom / Google Meet for video calls

Why This Role Is Awesome

Direct mentorship from a Stanford grad (PhD, MS, BS — yes, all three!)
Real ownership — you'll work on the things that move the needle, not coffee runs or busy work
Fully remote — work from home, in your favorite hoodie
Flexible hours — we care about results, not clock-watching
Clear path to grow into Senior Operations, Team Lead, or Business/Strategy roles
International team — you'll be working with people who genuinely care about building something meaningful
Learn how startups really work — the messy, exciting, "we're figuring it out together" version

Who This Role Is Perfect For

A curious, motivated early-career professional
Someone who wants to build, not just check boxes
A future leader who wants to grow alongside a startup
Anyone interested in marketplaces, tech, business development, or product
Ateneo and top-university graduates who want global exposure and real responsibility

Perks & Benefits

Minimum Qualifications: We're looking for someone smart, curious, and excited to learn. You don't need prior business development or sales experience — we'll teach you everything you need to know.

Required:

Strong English communication skills — especially writing clear, friendly, professional messages and emails
Organized, reliable, and proactive (the kind of person who follows through)
Comfortable working independently in a remote setup
Genuinely interested in learning about business, marketplaces, and how startups grow

Nice to Have (but not required):

Curiosity about startups, online marketplaces, or internet businesses
Interest in product design, customer research, or business development

SUpost is the trusted online marketplace for university students. We launched over a decade ago and have grown into the largest used marketplace within the universities we serve. We believe trust is the heart of great e-commerce — and that students deserve a safer, friendlier place to buy, sell, and connect than the general internet. From textbooks to bikes to apartment listings to new friendships, SUpost is where the campus community comes together. Now we're ready to bring that magic to more campuses around the world — and we'd love to do it with you.
