About Vantive Technology 

Vantive Technology (aka “Vantive”) is a pre-seed start-up under Red Cell Partners’, and we are looking for highly motivated and skilled individuals to join our team at the foundational level. 

Vantive is a scenario planning and course of action engine for 21st-century supply chains. It integrates seamlessly with existing systems (e.g. ERPs, PLMs, and MES), enabling predictive modeling across tiers, geographies, and time horizons.  

Our platform goes beyond visibility, simulating degradation; quantifying tradeoffs for cost, time, and mission impact; and generating actionable plans aligned with users’ objectives. Where others stop at visibility, Vantive delivers the optionality to anticipate, model, and act before disruptions cascade.

We are seeking a founding Go-to-Market (GTM) Lead who combines deep supply chain and solutions expertise with strong customer development and sales instincts.
