Original posting from Vendelux via Ashby

Vendelux https://vendelux.com/ is building the category-defining platform for event marketing intelligence.

Events are one of the largest and most impactful marketing channels, yet historically one of the least measurable. Vendelux brings transparency and performance to this space — helping companies discover, evaluate, and optimize their event strategy with data.

Our platform powers thousands of event decisions by delivering proprietary, AI-driven insights across hundreds of thousands of events globally. At the core of our platform is a robust ecosystem of event organizer partnerships — where organizers share first-party data, enabling richer insights for customers while receiving benchmarking and audience intelligence in return. From identifying the highest ROI conferences to enabling targeted meeting programs, Vendelux helps companies turn events into a predictable and scalable growth engine.

In addition, Vendelux Meetings extends our platform by turning insights into pipeline — using AI to identify high-value attendees and proactively book 1:1 meetings between our customers and their ideal prospects at events. This enables go-to-market teams to drive measurable ROI and maximize every event interaction.

Founded in 2021, Vendelux is a Series B SaaS company backed by top-tier investors including FirstMark. We partner with many of the fastest-growing companies in the world, and our team includes leaders from Bain, ZoomInfo, Shutterstock, FanDuel, Compass, Airbnb, Forter and beyond.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

  • Write SQL queries to analyze events, attendees, and organizations; surface insights that directly inform product and business decisions

  • Collaborate with the data and engineering teams on data infrastructure and tooling improvements

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

  • Based in New York City and able to work from our Midtown office
  • Available ~20+ hours per week
  • Proficiency in SQL — you're comfortable writing non-trivial queries against real datasets
  • Familiarity with Python is a strong plus
  • Experience with dashboarding tools (Looker, Metabase, Tableau, or similar) is a plus
  • Detail-oriented with high ownership over your work
  • Genuinely curious about data, AI, and how systems are built

WHY JOIN US

  • Real technical impact: The data you clean, model, and ship directly powers what customers see and trust
  • Cutting-edge problems: Work on applied ML, LLM pipelines, recommendation systems, and large-scale data quality challenges

  • Growth: Learn how a high-quality data team operates at a Series B company scaling fast
