Description
Want to be one of the first 20 employees in a technology company that’s already been recognized by the likes of the Wall Street Journal, CNN and TechCrunch, and was just a 2008 Webby Nominee? TripIt was founded by second-generation start-up leaders who know how the game is played and, more importantly, how it's won. This is an opportunity to be on the ground floor of a well-funded, privately-held company that values creative, collaborative thinking.
