Enterprise Account Executive - New York

Tonkean is the world’s first totally customizable process experience platform. With Tonkean, you can create intelligent, personalized automations that integrate with every app or system your organization uses. You can cultivate an employee experience that democratizes access to innovative technologies traditionally only available to highly trained developers. You can enable employees to focus more fully on high-value tasks, because you can enable them to automate low-value tasks. You can create inbox solutions that automatically analyze, prioritize, and route unstructured requests coming from any source, and you can track the status of action items as employees collaborate across teams to complete them. And you can design processes that employees are guaranteed to adopt and benefit from no matter their technical acumen, because Tonkean meets employees where they are—eliminating the need for change management—and is 100% no-code. 

At Tonkean, we believe that all this—compliance, efficiency, operational excellence—requires high levels of process adoption. But to ensure high levels of process adoption, you need to create processes that provide a great employee experience: that serve employees’ needs, understand their preferences, and solve their problems. 

To that end, you need a barrier-breaking technology partner. That’s what Tonkean seeks to be.

OUR VALUES

• There Is Always A Way.  At Tonkean, we believe that nothing is impossible.  There is a solution to every problem - you just need to find it.  
• Think People First.  We believe in investing in, empowering, and prioritizing people. We work as a team and win as a team. We listen with purpose as we speak with courage. We believe in diversity.  We always ask ourselves: Is this giving value to our customers? Is this improving our team? Is this helping me be better?
• Start With Why And Fail Fast. We believe that progress is the only way forward; that action is always better than no action; that innovation requires bravery.  We believe that every worthwhile “how” starts with an important “why.” If you know the “why”, and you can learn from it, It’s never a failure. It is the operational cost of progress.
• No BS.  To matter, you must - stay focused, keep it simple and always move the needle.  We don’t have time for BS. We don’t waste energy; we prioritize efficiency; we stay focused; and we always try to optimize for what’s important.
