Beacon SoftwareMember of GTM Staff - New York LocationNew York, NYEmployment TypeFull timeLocation TypeOn-siteDepartmentGTMBeacon is building the essential technology infrastructure for the everyday economy: the businesses, organizations, and services that make real life work, and that mainstream tech has largely left behind. We acquire, operate, and grow vertical market software companies. They are niche, founder-built businesses serving industries that are often overlooked and too profitable to ignore.Our model is simple: we seek out founders who have built their business by spending years understanding their market and prioritizing their customers' specific needs. We buy great businesses, invest in their continued growth, and hold them permanently, accelerating that growth with an AI-native platform built specifically for vertical market software. No mandate to cut, flip, or roll up into something unrecognizable.We are not a financial firm. We are technology entrepreneurs and operators who believe the most important businesses in the world are already running quietly in industries most people never think about. Our job is to find them, support the people who built them, and make them better.Beacon is backed by a diverse base of investors, with $550M+ raised to date, including General Catalyst, Lightspeed, D1 Capital, CPMG, the family offices of the founders of Stripe, DoorDash, and Ramp, and evergreen funds built for the long game.About the RoleBeacon Software buys businesses.

You get to do that.Like reading investment memos and deeply understanding businesses? You get to do that, too.Go deep and broad.We have an $8M ARR company that we think can get to $100M with intelligent performance marketing.We also have a $1M ARR company that has never had a formal growth strategy.Spend an ample LLM token budget.Earn meaningful equity in a hyperscaler that’s already profitable.Who are you?You’re probably one of these:A growth hire at a startup who wants to get back to early-stage work and ship things.A former founder who took their company from 0 to 1.An agency owner or growth consultant sick of doing their own BD, but who enjoys the day-to-day work. (Run an agency? We’re open to acquihiring your team!)Additionally:You write clearly and concisely.You’ve cracked a growth channel or loop before.
