Support Specialist
Who We Are
Coefficient is a VC-backed SaaS startup based in the SF Bay Area. We are building a remote-first company focused on hiring the best talent, regardless of location. Our culture centers on people who are smart, driven, curious, and collaborative. We are embarking on a journey to unleash the power and flexibility of spreadsheets across all of the data in company systems. The founders are serial entrepreneurs whose last startup, Shopular, was backed by Y Combinator and Sequoia and acquired by Rakuten Ebates.
What We Do
Coefficient provides a no-code solution that enables business teams to access their company data in real time directly from their spreadsheets and make it actionable across the organization. Whether their data lives in business applications, databases, data warehouses, or business intelligence solutions, business users can work with it easily without IT involvement.
Using Coefficient, business teams can be more effective with company data that’s connected, automated, and performant in the most familiar and flexible analytics product – their spreadsheet. By meeting users where they are, companies can now reduce friction between IT and business teams to drive higher efficiency and growth.
