## Job description

## ABOUT SANA

Our Impact team is known for its adaptability, entrepreneurial spirit, and relentless pursuit of excellence, embodying our core belief that learning is the foundation of all meaningful change.

In the Impact team, we work very closely with the companies who choose Sana. Together we problem solve, design solutions and implement them to drive change. Ultimately we measure ourselves through the impact we achieve through rolling out and adopting Sana. Our challenges are to continually learn and adapt to meet the unique needs of each company and team, and implement the creative solutions that make us proud of what we have achieved. While doing so we define what the future Sana's customer success, solution engineering and deployments teams will look like. By scaling this team, we create a significant impact on how people learn, across every industry, and across the globe.

- Competitive salary complemented with a competitive RSU program.
- Swift professional growth in an evolving environment, supported by a culture of continuous feedback and mentorship from senior leaders.
- Work with talented teammates across 5+ countries, and global customers, from our beautiful office in Stockholm, London and New York.

## About Sana

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Sana builds an AI-native enterprise platform that combines knowledge search, learning, and agentic automation to augment human intelligence at work.
- **Entity Type**: Private (subsidiary of Workday, Inc. – acquired in September 2025 for ~$1.1 billion)
- **Headquarters**: Stockholm, Sweden (with offices in London, UK and New York, NY, USA)
- **Founded**: 2016
- **Founders**: Joel Hellermark (CEO)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Enterprise AI / Knowledge Management / Learning & Development
- **Target customers**: B2B – mid-market to enterprise organizations (e.g., Merck, Polestar, global manufacturers and fintechs)
- **Mission statement**: “Empower everyone to solve the world’s most important problems faster by transforming how organizations learn and access knowledge.”

## Products & Services
- **Sana Learn**: AI-native learning platform that combines LMS, LXP, authoring tool, and virtual classroom. Features AI-generated courses, personalized tutoring agents, and content creation that reduces creation time from months to hours.
- **Sana Agents**: A no-code agent builder that lets users create AI agents to automate repetitive tasks, search across company data sources (Workday, Google Drive, SharePoint, Office365), and execute workflows end-to-end. Includes proactive insights and document generation.
- Both products are now part of Workday’s ecosystem and continue to be developed independently.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation**: Acquired by Workday for approximately $1.1 billion (September 2025). Prior to acquisition, total funding was $137.1 million.
- **Key Metric**: Pre-acquisition annual revenue was SEK 23.0 million (~$2.1M) – this figure is likely outdated given rapid growth and the acquisition.
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: New Enterprise Associates (led Series C), EQT Ventures (led Series A), Sven Hagströmer (seed). Now fully owned by Workday.
- **Growth Signals**: Headcount grew 64.4% YoY to 284 employees. Served over 1 million users across hundreds of enterprises. Customer outcomes: 275% increase in learning engagement for an EV manufacturer, 95% time savings for a manufacturer using agents, 90% productivity gains for an industrial tech company.

## Competitive Advantages
- **AI-native design**: Built from the ground up for AI, not bolted on. Combines search, learning, and automation in one platform.
- **Beautiful user experience**: Consistently rated 4.9/5.0 on product reviews and employer reviews.
- **Talent density**: Known for hiring exceptional people from top consultancies (McKinsey, BCG, Bain) and tech companies (Google, Spotify, Klarna).
- **Workday integration**: Unmatched access to Workday’s data on people, money, and organizational context, enabling hyper-personalized and proactive AI.

## Strategic Focus
- **Post-acquisition**: Powering Workday’s “new front door for work” – a personalized, proactive employee experience. Accelerating product development and scaling to 75 million Workday users.
- **Continued standalone growth**: Sana Learn and Sana Agents will remain as separate products, with increased resources for innovation and customer scale.
- **Key priorities**: Deepening AI agent capabilities, expanding learning personalization, and enabling internal mobility and reskilling.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Described as “do your life’s work” – a high-autonomy, high-expectation environment modeled after Bell Labs. Values: extreme talent density, curiosity, speed, joy, and caring more than seems reasonable.
- **Remote/Hybrid Policy**: Offices in Stockholm, London, and New York. Likely hybrid based on office presence; specific policy not stated but offices are central.
- **Perks**: Employer rating 4.9/5.0 (culture: 4.9, career: 4.8, compensation: 4.4). Strong emphasis on learning, feedback, and meaningful work. Open positions include Design Engineer, Engagement Manager, GTM roles, and more.
- **Notable**: Recently acquired by Workday, providing stability, resources, and the opportunity to impact millions of users. High talent density with peers from BCG, McKinsey, Spotify, Google.
