Signal Vine is building an enterprise engagement platform that allows organizations (primarily in Higher Ed for now)  to apply behavioral science to communications to influence behavior, change outcomes, and improve the economics of their business. Our platform combines text messaging with data analytics to deliver a highly personalized and interactive experience for the people our customers need to reach.

We are experiencing rapid growth due to the market adoption of our enterprise messaging platform. Our company’s technology has a meaningful social impact, and we recognize that the key to our growth and success is hiring great people. The ideal candidate for Signal Vine will be a great teammate that brings creative problem-solving skills to the job while maintaining the dedication and focus required to achieve results.  

An important factor in our success so far is our ability to work smarter - that is, we recognize that our employees need to have downtime in order to do their best work.  We pride ourselves on our ability to come together to achieve the common goal of growing our business, while allowing our colleagues and teammates to live a healthy and balanced life. We have a powerful vision and have lined up a stellar team of partners, staff and investors in what we expect will be an incredible journey.
