About Nothing
About the TeamNothing exists to make tech feel exciting again.
We’re building a different kind of technology company, one that puts design, emotion, and human creativity at the heart of everything we do. From the way our products look and feel to how we communicate and show up in culture, we believe technology should make you feel something.
Founded in London in 2020, we’ve grown from idea to global challenger in just a few years. Backed by GV (Google Ventures), EQT Ventures, and C Ventures, and investors like Tony Fadell (iPod), Casey Neistat, and Kevin Lin (Twitch), we’re now sold in 40+ markets with millions of users worldwide.
The Sales and Go-To-Market team is the engine room of our global expansion. We are currently tackling one of the toughest challenges in tech: breaking the stale duopoly of the North American carrier market. This isn't about shifting boxes; it’s about navigating the rigorous lab certifications of AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile while maintaining the soul of a challenger brand. We are building a lean, high-velocity team that can outmanoeuvre legacy giants by being sharper, faster, and more intentional about how our products land on shelves.
