I built a mobile app for golfers who don't like using their phones while they play. Take a picture of your scorecard after the round and it reads/saves the scores and stats (and allows you to post to the USGA if you keep your handicap).

I'm a self-taught coder who first built this 7(!) years ago but couldn't figure out the OCR part. Started again 9 months ago on Replit (starting with Agent 2 which was okay, then eventually starting to absolutely crank with Agent 3) and it works really well now.

Would love feedback from any golfers! golfrise.com

I was employee #1 at Datanyze and helped us bootstrap to $1M ARR, specifically by generating leads and closing deals (both individually and as a manager). I took the last few months off to travel and build out some ideas (self-taught coder), but I'm always looking for technical founders looking for help selling their product.

Datanyze | San Mateo, CA | ONSITE | All roles from sales to engineering (including VP level)

Hi, everyone! Jon from Datanyze here. We are NOT your average startup! We bootstrapped the company passed $1 million in annual recurring revenue, then raised a seed round (almost 2 years ago) from some great investors, including Google Ventures, Mark Cuban, and the recently announced Kobe Bryant!

We take our work seriously, but not ourselves. We know when to work hard and when to play hard (we went to Vegas when we hit a big milestone and now we have HUGE plans for the next) and we're having a blast building amazing solutions for sales and marketing teams.

We have open positions for everything from entry-level sales and support to VPs of various departments!

If you want to hear more or know someone amazing who might be interested, please email Katrina (katrina@datanyze.com) or check out some of our open roles as well as the team that got us to where we are today:

Jason Lemkin's SaaStr.com is a great starting point, although it focuses mostly on B2B SaaS. I would also check out his posts on Quora.

Aaron Ross's "Predictable Revenue" is a great start and focuses a lot on outbound sales; he is working on a part 2 with Jason Lemkin.

Mark Roberge's "The Sales Acceleration Formula" is also great and talks more about the marketing side.

Datanyze | San Mateo, CA | ONSITE | All positions

Jon from Datanyze here. We've been growing like crazy...like 3-offices-in-12-months crazy...and we're looking for hungry, talented people at all levels for all departments (sales, marketing, product, design, customer success, operations, and everything in between!).

We're backed by Google Ventures, Mark Cuban, and tons of other great investors. We worked from a beach house in Hawaii for 8 days when we hit our first major milestone, and if we hit our next one by the end of this month, we're renting a freaking island in Fiji!

December 2014: We grew out of our first office and moved into a new one that's 3X bigger (and has a much better view!)

January 2015: After seeing over 500% YoY ARR growth and going from 2 to 13 employees in 2014, we will be starting off the year with 5 new team members from places like Box, Yelp and Ensighten.
