About ShiftForce

ShiftForce is a Versailles-based software company serving restaurants and hotels across the United States. Their flagship product, ShiftNote, is a manager logbook and employee scheduling platform built specifically for hospitality operators — helping multi-unit restaurant groups, hotels, resorts, and catering operations streamline team communication and build schedules in minutes.

It’s a small, focused team that operates with high trust and low bureaucracy. The people who thrive here take real ownership, use technology — including AI — to do their best work, and genuinely enjoy talking with hospitality operators all day.

Who We’re Looking For

Someone who came up in hospitality — restaurants, hotels, banquets, catering, events, resorts — and has a natural instinct for taking care of people and closing deals. You’re optimistic, high-energy, good with computers, and you use AI tools to make yourself better at what you do.

You’d start out helping existing customers and grow into leading new customer onboarding and eventually sales conversations. Performance creates real opportunity here — including a path to higher pay as you take on more.

Why Your Hospitality Background Matters

When a 15-location restaurant group calls with a scheduling problem, you already know what a GM’s Saturday night looks like. When a hotel F&B director asks how to configure shift handoff, you’ve been in their shoes.

ShiftForce’s customers are hospitality operators — they trust other hospitality operators. That’s the edge this role gives you, and exactly the reason ShiftForce is looking specifically for this profile.

How to Apply — Two Steps, Both Required
1
Email Matt directly
Send to matt@shiftnote.com with the subject line “Customer Success Application”.

Include a short note — three paragraphs max — covering:
  (a) Your hospitality background
  (b) Why you’d be good at this job
  (c) One specific example of a time you took care of a difficult customer or closed a sale you weren’t sure you’d close
2
Record a 3–5 minute screen-share video
Use Loom (free at loom.com), Zoom, or any screen recorder. Show and talk through:

  (a) Navigate a website you use regularly — show your screen and explain what you’re doing
  (b) Pitch something you love — a restaurant, hotel, or product. 60 seconds. Sell it
  (c) Describe how you’ve used an AI tool — specifically, not vaguely

Send the video link in your email.
This application process is intentional. The job is about communicating, screen sharing, selling, and using technology — so ShiftForce wants to see you can do all of it before the first interview. Questions? Text Matt at (913) 706-6290.
