Eight Sleep is the first sleep fitness company. At Eight Sleep we design products at the forefront of sleep innovation. Our mission is to power human potential through better sleep, using innovative technology, detailed design, and proven science and data to personalize and improve each night for everybody—changing the way people sleep forever and for better. Backed by leading Silicon Valley investors including Khosla Ventures and Y Combinator, it was named by Fast Company in 2018 as one of the Most Innovative Companies in Consumer Electronics.

We've just launched our temperature-regulated smart bed, the Pod. It's an absolute game changer, improving people's health and happiness by changing the way they sleep. Early feedback is great, but we still have a long way to go toward achieving our mission.

  • Apply strategic lens and framework to opportunities based on Eight Sleep’s revenue targets, brand aspiration, product portfolio, and technology roadmap
  • Roll up sleeves as needed to ensure strategic initiatives are successfully executed and carried out

What you’ll need to succeed:

  • 4-6 years of relevant experience, preferably in business development, marketing or partnership roles
  • Experience working cross-functionally and representing companies in discussions and negotiations with C/VP-level executives
  • Exposure to marketing through working in the direct-to-consumer, SaaS, or Media industries is preferred
  • Adapts well to a fast-paced environment - being independent and scrappy is a must
