About Penny
Chris and David started Penny AI in 2018 in Squamish, BC (a bit north of Vancouver) after seeing an opportunity to solve a massive problem for millions of consultants around the world. We have now grown to a team of 100+ located across Canada and the United States. Penny has tens of thousands of users across four continents who trust Penny to help run their businesses.
Penny is on an upward trajectory with backing from top-tier Venture Capitalists in New York, San Francisco, Boston, Toronto and Vancouver. As we grow our team, we don’t expect everyone to know every answer. You may build something that fails spectacularly, and that’s ok. What is important is that you remain humble, you laugh a little, you learn, and together we find a way to succeed.
Diversity, inclusion and belonging is one of our core values and as we expand we are committed to finding talented people from a wide range of backgrounds, experiences and perspectives.
