About Connor Anderson
After starting my career in sales within a large corporation, it became clear that I was drawn more to the pace, ambiguity, and problem-solving that come with startups. That led me to Tock, where I had a front-row seat to multiple funding rounds, 10x growth, and an eventual $400M acquisition. It was an incredible environment for learning how great companies scale, how go-to-market strategy evolves over time, and how strong teams execute amidst growth. After the acquisition, I set out to find my next opportunity: a pre-Series A startup where I could play a meaningful role in shaping go-to-market strategy, helping refine product-market fit, and overseeing the buildout of a scalable sales engine. I’m grateful to have found that, and significantly more, with the Enklu team.Welcome long hours, make games of the mundane, and believe that if you want to be great at anything, you need to fall in love with the process.
