Job Description:

About the Company
Craft is a supplier intelligence company helping organizations accelerate data-informed business decisions. Our unique, proprietary data platform tracks thousands of real-time signals across millions of companies globally, delivering best in class monitoring and insight into global supply chains, among other company cohorts. Our clients, including Fortune 100 companies, government and military agencies, SMEs, asset management groups, and others, use our technology for supply chain intelligence, market intelligence and related use cases. Through our modular, secure, customizable portal, our clients can monitor any company they are working with and drive critical actions in real-time.
We are a well-funded technology company with leading investors from Silicon Valley and elsewhere, but are not your typical data or SaaS startup. Our CEO is a seasoned entrepreneur and Juilliard-trained cellist. The Craft team is globally distributed with headquarters in San Francisco and in London, UK. We fully support and encourage remote workers, and have team members across North America, Canada, and Europe. We are looking for innovative and driven people who are passionate about building delightful software to join our rapidly growing team.
In recent years, the global supply chain has experienced unparalleled disruption and unpredictability. This includes a global chip shortage, blockages in the Suez Canal, and cyberattacks closing down the largest refined oil pipeline system in the US. Over $4 trillion in revenue was lost in 2020 alone due to supply chain disruption. As a result, companies are working to improve their understanding and monitoring of their suppliers so they can proactively identify and prevent risk.
