A quick note from Neal, one of the founders of Secant.
If you’re reading this, that means you’re interested in joining the Secant team — awesome! Before you fill out the application, you should take a few minutes to understand what we’re looking for in a new hire.
We're looking for a founder; someone who takes initiative without being asked. You see problems and instinctively solve them.
We care less about what you know now and more about how quickly you can master new skills and adapt to challenges. You're the type who reads papers on transformer architectures over the weekend just for fun.
You work smart and relentlessly. You're willing to put in the hours and push yourself beyond your limits. Excellence isn't just a goal — it's your standard.
Our Founding GTM made a list of 17,000 schools across the country for us to cold email — before he was even officially hired.
You have an unwavering belief in your ability to overcome any challenge. When others say it can't be done, you're already halfway to proving them wrong.
Brilliance without kindness doesn't cut it here. We're building a team of genuinely good people — empathetic, collaborative, and driven by a desire to make a positive impact.
