Operations Manager

About Us

We are Proxyrack - a leading growing SaaS company that provides businesses with APIs to collect data online through a large residential and datacenter proxy network. 

Our company is entirely remote and asynchronous meaning every team member is located in a different country and we collaborate entirely over Slack and email. We’re primarily results-focused and have very few meetings.  

Our Core Values: 

  1. Own your role: to be successful, take the foundations given to you and make the role yours. Come up with your own ideas and projects and drive them forward. 

  2. Speak your mind: We hire people in their area because we respect and want to hear their opinions. Feedback flows freely and openly in all directions. 

  3. Accuracy over speed: Things aren’t rushed, it is better to spend time properly thinking through and analyzing projects than hurrying them. Get advice, collaborate, and do the best job possible. 

  4. Try stuff: You can try things and make mistakes and that’s fine as long as you use this to keep improving.
