You know restaurants. Here's your next chapter.
If you've worked in or around restaurants, you understand owners in a way most people don't. You know what a missed phone call costs, what the delivery apps take, and how hard it is to keep up with reviews and social media while running the place. We built SWIPEBY to fix exactly that, and we want people who speak the language to bring it to owners.
This is a chance to take everything you've learned in hospitality and build a career on top of it: at a growing tech company, in a role where you're in charge of your own day and your own results, with a real path to leadership as we expand. It's a startup, so what you put in is what you get out. For the right person, that's the whole point.
SWIPEBY is a profitable, funded, fast-growing AI startup based in Miami. We are the AI Marketing Department for Main Street: our AI answers every phone call, posts to social media, responds to reviews, runs digital ads and brings customers back, so owners can focus on running their business. We're expanding into new markets across the U.S.
What you'll get
- A career path, not just a job: strong performers move into senior sales and leadership roles in 6 to 8 months, often to open new markets
- Commission with no ceiling, plus fixed pay for activity while you build your book. Your income grows as your skills and your territory do
- Real training, from your first week: we teach the software and the selling, you bring the industry instincts
- Direct access to the founding team. Small company, your ideas get heard and your wins get noticed
What you'll do
- Own a territory: meet restaurant and local business owners in person and build relationships
- Show them AI in action: a phone agent that never misses a call, social posts created automatically, reviews answered in seconds. The demo does a lot of the talking
- Help owners get started and become the person they call first
Who this is for
- People from restaurants or hospitality: front-of-house, management, catering, distribution, or selling to restaurants. Sales experience is welcome, not required
- Experienced outside sales reps who want a product with real pull and a faster path to leadership
- Self-starters who like owning their day and are comfortable on the road in their local market
Full-time. On the road in your local market. Commission plus fixed activity pay. Training and weekly coaching included.
