Aeon App — Aeonian Technology

Remote (U.S./Canada-based), extensive travel required · Full-Time

About Aeonian Technology

Aeonian Technology is the startup behind the Aeon App — a purpose-built suite of transportation management software designed to modernize how organizations move people. Rather than a single product, Aeon App is being developed as a family of six vertical-specific solutions: school & education transportation, taxi/rideshare, limo & bus charter, airport transfer, paratransit, and EMS/medical transport.

We've built and are now rolling out the first of these: Aeon App for Schools, a platform that gives school districts, private schools, and universities a modern way to plan, dispatch, and manage their student transportation operations. It's live, it's in the field, and it's ready for a go-to-market leader to take it to scale — before we turn to the next five verticals.

The Opportunity

This is a founding, function-defining role reporting directly to the Founder & CEO of Aeonian Technology. We're hiring the person who will build Sales & Marketing at Aeonian Technology from the ground up — not join an existing team, but create it. You'll set the go-to-market strategy, build the pipeline, close the early customers, and lay down the playbook, hiring, and infrastructure that Sales & Marketing runs on as we grow.

Your first mandate is the school transportation market: getting Aeon App in front of the people who make student mobility decisions — school bus administrators, transportation directors, school board superintendents, state departments of education, and the equivalent decision-makers at private schools and universities — and turning those conversations into signed customers.

As Aeon

App expands into rideshare, charter, airport transfer, paratransit, and EMS, you'll help shape and lead go-to-market for each.

This role is built for someone who already has relationships in, or deep familiarity with, the school transportation and pupil transportation ecosystem — someone who doesn't need an introduction to how these buying decisions get made, who influences them, and how long the cycle really takes.

What You'll Do

- Own Sales & Marketing end to end: strategy, pipeline, messaging, brand, and execution — reporting directly to the Founder & CEO of Aeonian Technology.
- Sell directly to school transportation decision-makers: transportation directors, school bus administrators, superintendents, business officials, state departments of education, and procurement contacts at public school districts, private schools, and universities.
- Build and manage the full sales pipeline — prospecting, demos, proposals,



procurement/RFP processes, and closing — for a software sale into public-sector and education budgets.
- Develop the go-to-market playbook for Aeon App: positioning, pricing strategy input, competitive differentiation, and sales collateral.
- Build out marketing from scratch — brand presence, content, trade show and conference strategy (e.g., NAPT, STN Expo, state pupil transportation associations), digital marketing, and demand generation.
- Represent Aeonian Technology at industry conferences, association meetings, and school board/district events.
- Establish repeatable sales processes and the early CRM/marketing infrastructure the function will run on.
- Feed market and customer insight back into product — you're often the first person hearing what districts actually need.
- Expand the playbook across verticals: as additional Aeon App products (rideshare, charter, airport transfer, paratransit, EMS) come online, help define and lead go-to-market strategy for each.
- Recruit, hire, and eventually lead the Sales & Marketing team as the function scales beyond a team of one.

What We're Looking For

- Proven sales and/or marketing experience selling software or technology solutions into the transportation space — student transportation/pupil transportation strongly preferred.
- Existing relationships with, or demonstrated ability to access, school transportation decision-makers: transportation directors, school bus administrators, superintendents, business officials, and/or state departments of education.
- A track record of building something from zero — a territory, a book of business, or ideally a sales/marketing function itself — not just executing inside an established machine.
- Comfort and credibility selling into public-sector and education procurement environments, including RFP processes, budget cycles, and multi-stakeholder decision-making.
- Solid understanding of school bus and student transportation operations — routing, dispatch, compliance, safety, and the day-to-day pain points transportation directors deal with.
- Startup mindset: self-directed, resourceful, comfortable with ambiguity, and willing to do the unglamorous work of building a function from scratch alongside the strategic work of leading it.




- Willingness and ability to travel extensively for in-person meetings, site visits, conferences, and industry events across the U.S. and Canada.
- Excellent communication and presentation skills — you'll be the face of Aeon App to prospects, partners, and the industry.

Nice to Have

- Prior experience selling into rideshare/taxi, charter/limo/bus, airport transfer, paratransit, or EMS/medical transport — given Aeon App's roadmap into these verticals.
- Existing relationships with state departments of education, pupil transportation associations (e.g., NAPT, NASDPTS), or university transportation/parking & transportation services departments.
- Experience at an early-stage SaaS startup, particularly in a founding go-to-market or “employee #1 in Sales” capacity.
- Familiarity with fleet management, routing/dispatch, or transportation compliance software.

Compensation & Benefits Compensation includes a competitive base salary, commission/OTE tied to sales performance, and meaningful equity in Aeonian Technology — reflecting the ground-floor, founding nature of this role. Exact package is commensurate with experience and will be discussed directly with candidates.
