Job Brief:


BlueOcean is a different kind of SaaS company. We are a team of problem solvers fueled by challenging convention and we are looking for doers, leaders and dreamers to join us. We are venture-backed by arguably the best SaaS VC in the world Insight Partners, and we are looking to hire those who want to join us as we build this ship. 


Our mission is to revolutionize how marketing decisions are made. We are a single pane of glass connecting data and insights to actions and outcomes. Our fundamental vision is to simply Unlock Human Creativity!


Our first product is focused on completely changing the way brand tracking and measurement is performed, a mission critical business process that has yet to be augmented or informed by software! The total US TAM is $74 Billion dollars, so it’s a huge opportunity and just the first stop on this journey. In order to approach this problem we have built  our always-on brand tracking platform (Brand Navigator), a product that instantly informs brands about what to do today and tomorrow without waiting for an army of consultants or analyst groups to catch up. We already have great customers like Google, Microsoft, Bloomingdale’s
