Careers

We are hiring the people who will run the place.

Four roles, all on-site in San Francisco, all reporting into a building that opens in 2027. If you want a job where the result of your work is a physical room full of people, this is one.

Working here

A small team
and one building.

SFbei is an operating business, not a software company with a lobby. The work is physical, local and immediate: a supplier signs, a display gets built, an engineer finds the part, an event fills the roof deck. You will see the result of your week by walking downstairs.

We are early. The first cohort of hires will set how the place runs — the standards at reception, what a good introduction sounds like, how we decide an aisle is full. That is the opportunity and it is also the warning: if you want a defined role in a mature org, this isn't it yet.

What we offer

The terms, stated plainly.

Published salary bands

Every listing carries its range. We do not negotiate people down for being polite about it.

Equity for early hires

Meaningful for the first cohort, explained clearly, with the maths shown rather than implied.

Real health cover

Medical, dental and vision for you and dependants, paid by us.

Time off you're expected to take

Twenty days plus public holidays, plus the week between Christmas and New Year when the building is shut.

Travel that isn't a chore

Commercial roles travel to Asia and Europe; we book proper flights and give you a day either side.

A building, not a Zoom grid

Everyone is on-site. That is a genuine constraint on who this suits, and we would rather say so up front.

Hiring process

Four steps. No take-home essay.

01

Apply

The form on each role. A CV or LinkedIn, and a few honest lines about why this one.

02

Call

Thirty minutes with the hiring manager. Mutual: you should be interviewing us too.

03

On-site

Two or three conversations at 1070 Bryant, including a walk of the floor plan.

04

Decision

A yes or a no with reasons, plus a written offer. We do not exploding-offer people.

We aim to get from application to decision inside three weeks. If we go quiet on you for longer than a week, chase us — it means something went wrong on our side, not yours.

Speculative applications

None of these
quite you?

We will need floor staff, events people, a finance and operations hire, and eventually a second technical lead. If you can see where you'd fit, tell us — a short, specific note about what you'd do here beats a polished CV for a role we haven't written yet.

We read everything. We reply to everything.

We read every application and reply either way.

Come build it

Four roles.
One building.
2027.

If you have run a floor, filled a venue, or explained a component to someone who needed it — we would like to hear from you.
