ZAM

Careers at ZAM

ZAM builds business operating systems for service businesses, and we hire the people who sell them, deliver them and look after the team that does. Everyone works with us as an independent contractor, remote-first. Every open role publishes its full job description on this site — scope, what success looks like, compensation and work arrangement — so you can read the job before you decide to apply.

How the engagement works

Both roles are independent contractor engagements rather than employment. You control your own hours and methods of work and are responsible for your own taxes, contributions and registrations in your country of residence. No fee is charged to candidates at any stage of the recruitment process, and you will never be required to purchase anything to perform either role.

Open roles

  • Growth Specialist (Marketing · Sales · Deal Closing · Project Management, Remote — United States, Canada, Spain, Philippines & International): Own the full client-growth lifecycle, from finding a business that could benefit from ZAM through to delivering the project and growing the account.

What you get

A role has to pay for the person taking it, not just for us. This is what comes with the job.

  • Terms you can read before you apply: Both roles publish the whole job description on this site: scope, what success looks like, the compensation, the work arrangement and how to apply. The page and the document you would sign say the same thing.
  • No fees, nothing to buy, ever: We do not sell you training, leads, a starter kit or a licence. There is nothing to pay at any point. Anyone asking you to pay to work somewhere is not offering you a job.
  • You pick your interview time: The application takes about ten minutes. If it clears our screen you choose an hour that suits you, from the times we publish, in your own timezone.
  • A warm pipeline and real playbooks: You are not handed a phone and wished luck. Training, written playbooks and a pipeline already in motion come with the role, and every process lives inside our own app.
  • A direct line to the founder: No layers, and no junior bench to manage you. You work directly with the person making the decisions, and your work reaches the client without passing through three rounds of review.
  • Remote-first, and genuinely so: The Growth role is worked remotely from Canada, the United States, the Philippines and other approved jurisdictions. The company runs on the same operating system we build for clients, so working distributed is the default here rather than a concession.

How hiring runs, step by step

  • 1. Apply in ten minutes: One short form: what you have done, what is driving you, and whether the structure works for you. No cover letter.
  • 2. We read it properly: Every application is screened against the same rubric, so it is the same bar for everyone. If it clears, we email you the interview link.
  • 3. Your interview: Forty-five minutes on video at a time you chose. The questions are read out one at a time and you answer in your own words; our HR lead is on the call and stays on at the end for your questions.
  • 4. The founder reviews it: A person watches it, not a filter. You hear back either way rather than being left to guess.
  • 5. Offer, playbooks, first win: Terms and figures are agreed in the offer. Then training, playbooks and a pipeline, and on the Growth role your base unlocks at the first closed deal.

What you would be joining

ZAM builds custom operating systems that replace a stack of rented SaaS for service businesses. Our largest published build runs a roughly 200-employee operator: 21 SaaS tools replaced, 16 departments and 14 live bases in one owned system, with 25 or more AI agents in production and no ongoing licence cost. The company runs itself on that same system, so the tools you would use are the ones we build.

Who tends to do well here

  • You have sold, grown, built or run something you can point to, with a number attached.
  • You would rather own an outcome end to end than be handed a ticket queue.
  • You are comfortable working remotely and writing things down.
  • You care more about judgment, ownership and craft than about job titles.

Apply

Read the role first, then apply from the bottom of its page. Both applications start on the same form and take about ten minutes. If a role is not quite right but the work is, email hr@zamation.dev with a short note and something you have built. We read every one.

Is the Growth Specialist role commission only?
Not permanently. It pays a commission on qualifying revenue from deals you originate and close, plus a recurring commission on qualifying recurring revenue, and country-specific base compensation after your first qualifying closed deal. The rates are set out in your individual offer and Country Addendum.

Do I have to pay for anything to join?
No. There are no fees, no training to buy, no leads to purchase and no starter kit, at any point.
What does the interview involve?
The application takes about ten minutes and is itself the screening. If it clears, you pick a time for a 45-minute video interview. The questions are read out one at a time and you answer on camera in your own words, with our HR lead on the call to ask their own and to answer yours at the end.
Is it all work?
No, and we would be worried if it were. Halloween, the Christmas party, town halls, team building and the small celebrations in between are planned in the open on a team events calendar, and everyone sees what is coming on their own week view. Hit a target today and the bonus posts to your balance today, visibly. Growth Specialists earn on outreach, qualified leads, discovery calls and presentations, with a stack for all four in one day, a weekly bonus for a full week, and a named monthly award. Your balance sits in the portal header; claiming it is one tap.
Do I need a background in software or automation?
For the Growth Specialist role, no. We care about judgment, ownership and craft more than a particular resume, and the training and playbooks come with the role. What helps most is having sold, grown or won something you can point to.
