build a set of quantitative and qualitative goals for our events
work with designers on booths, swag, and other items
collaborate closely with our existing close-knit growth team

operator – you can run a 16-person dinner and a 512-person happy hour with the same precision
numerate – share quantifiable results from our events
taste – you have strong opinions about brand, copy, and partners
scrappy – you'd rather book the venue today than wait for the perfect plan
networked – you know the venues & vendors that make for the best events
independent – you figure things out without waiting to be told
nice to have:
you've sold to engineers before and know why most engineers hate marketing tactics
you've thrown a party people still talk about
tpuf is hardcore & whimsical. we value:
overstep > understep
show > tell
complexity is earned
showing up as part of our customer’s team
