Join Our Mission

At Fonolo, we’re on a mission to eliminate hold-time forever. Since 2007, our patented, cloud-based call-back solutions have eliminated hundreds of years of hold time for customers across the globe. Our customers use Fonolo to improve their customer experience and save them time — and we’re just getting started.

Why do we care? Time is our most precious resource. Our technology is centered around the human experience, and helping people reclaim those valuable moments. Less time on hold means more time to learn a new skill, more time for health and wellness, and more time to spend with loved ones. It’s that simple.

    “I think the most rewarding part of working at Fonolo is that you’re trusted to do what you’re an expert in. It’s nice to have your team and your manager fully trust you and have room to make mistakes. In my role, there’s a lot of experimentation… there’s a lot of flexibility to try new things, and that’s the most exciting because it leads to great growth opportunities!”

    “Every time we win an opportunity, that’s what gets me excited. I love seeing the customer list grow, the number of call-backs our clients use… it might not be my deal, it might not be my customer, but because I’m a collaborator with the rest of the team, I’m seeing the success that comes out of that.”

    Lead Solutions Engineer, at Fonolo since June 2018

    “I have exponentially grown in my technical ability while being exposed to SaaS and related technologies here at Fonolo. Also professionally, I have been challenged with projects and implementations that pushed my boundaries and forced me to really drill down and figure out the direction I want to take my career. The wide range of areas that my role allowed me to touch on, and deep dive into, has really provided a high level view of areas to pursue.”

    “I’ve interviewed at many companies over my career, and Fonolo stood out from day one. I wasn’t just another candidate trying to convince them that I fit the brief — they were truly trying to find someone who would fit their unique culture of talented and collaborative professionals. Despite being hired virtually, they did such an incredible job at making me feel at ease during training and onboarding, and made sure I had everything I needed to be set up for success.”
