About the role
Overview
At Silkline, we have a bold mission - bring transparency and reliability to global supply chains. We are starting by building the modern operating system for procurement, helping businesses understand their supply networks and adapt to disruption.
Silkline is a seed-stage tech startup backed by top venture investors. This past year, we have grown our customer base 5x, and we are looking to grow rapidly. Join us on the ground floor as we scale our product offering and customer base.
The Founding Team
- Isaac Chambers is a 3x founder and started his career at Deloitte Consulting, focusing on supply chain & manufacturing operations for the aerospace & defense sector.
- Brent Shulman is a full-stack engineering leader and was previously an engineer at Palantir and Pave. While at Pave (where he joined as the 10th engineer), he founded, grew, and led the data integration team - scaling from 10 to thousands of customer connections.
