About us
Overleaf is well-loved by its user base and community - a community which has rapidly grown to over 17 million users worldwide. We are looking to bring a talented, experienced individual into the organisation who will take responsibility for continuing and expanding Overleaf's B2B Scientific and Research Enterprise Sales. Verticals include labs, research institutes, engineering sector, technology sector, pharma, finance. Organisations who need to write research, documentation, proposals, etc. which include scientific, engineering or other hard sciences language.
This is a remote, full-time role, based in the Central or Eastern time zone of the US, and we'd love to hear from candidates with an engineering or scientific background who have moved into sales.
Overleaf is advancing the research ecosystem as part of Digital Science. Digital Science is a pioneering technology company, and our vision is of a future where a trusted and collaborative research ecosystem drives progress for all. We believe in better, open, collaborative and inclusive research. In creating the next generation of tools and working in partnership with the community, we tackle some of the biggest challenges to research. In order to achieve our vision, we need innovative, inspiring and dynamic people to join our team. Want to join us?
Who we areOverleaf is a mission-led organisation that builds modern collaborative authoring tools for scientists, engineers, technical professionals and students. Our primary product is an online, real-time collaborative editor for papers, theses, technical reports and other documents written in the LaTeX markup language.
Overleaf has seen rapid adoption across science and research, and now supports a community of over 17 million users worldwide. This community includes major academic institutions such as Stanford and Caltech, with Overleaf becoming an integral part of research collaborations, graduate programmes, and undergraduate teaching. Many international tech, finance and engineering companies use our enterprise solutions, and we work with several major publishers: for example, supporting collaboration on IEEE's member platform, and making the journal submission process smoother for LaTeX users across many academic publishers. Our vision is to be the go-to place for writing scientific and technical documents.
Overleaf was founded by two mathematicians who were inspired by their own experiences in academia to create a better solution for scientific collaboration and communication. Now we are a team of about 70 based mainly in the UK, Europe, the US and Canada.
