Job description

About Letterhead

With Letterhead, your newsletters do all the work for you. We help publishers and marketers engage their audience, create great content products, and generate revenue, with software that can automate and support the entire process through machine learning.

We're a venture-backed scaleup on a journey to change how online engagement happens through meaningful, first-party content. Our founders came from the media industry, building a national network of local email newsletters, and spun out Letterhead in 2022 to help every organization master email.

Our team

We're a diverse team of internally-motivated, open-minded people who want to be the best at what we do. We value intellectual curiosity, candor, and a sense of urgency. When we hire, we look for cultural contribution rather than culture fit: what will each new person add to our team as we grow?

This position is remote and this person can sit anywhere in Canada, with a preference on residence in Quebec. We are a global team and prioritize great people over location.

Our Company Values

• Users first: we're here to help our customers, and we put their experience and priorities first.

• Great and fast: we deliver top-quality work and experiences at high speed, every time.

• Extreme ownership: we take pride in owning our work and owning the mission, even when something’s “not my job,” we work together to make it happen.
