To consider 🔭

We love passionate people and we value your time and interest in professional growth, therefore it is important to do some expectation matching: we are a startup, we are a small ordinary team doing extraordinary work, this might not be a regular corporate experience many professionals are looking for.

We are a growing startup hoping for every team member to grow alongside the company, we will offer a sales compensation plan aligned with the company and team values; however, it is important for us that you know that this is NOT a SENIOR position, we are all sailing in the same boat, and we see huge growth potential for this position in Ed-tech. Lab4U aims to become the leader in STEM education, and YOU can be a part of it. We have a small budget which we hope to increase over time; depending on the experience, skills, and language domain (perfect written and spoken Spanish and English), we will be offering a salary of monthly US$ 1,000 to US$ 1,500 + sales commissions.
