Product Manager Internship
About LiveSwitch
Today, starting and running a business is more challenging than ever. Small businesses face intense competition, not only from large tech companies but also from “big box” retailers and private equity firms that are consolidating industries to dominate markets. These forces stifle free market competition, putting immense pressure on small businesses—those with fewer than 100 employees.
The economic consequences are profound: fewer people owning more, and many people, including the middle class, not owning much at all. At LiveSwitch, we believe ownership is synonymous with freedom. True empowerment doesn’t come from giving people things; it comes from enabling individuals to own something meaningful, like their own businesses.
LiveSwitch is dedicated to leveling the playing field. We develop the best technologies in the world to enable small businesses to thrive despite these tough conditions. Our products help small businesses save and make money, save time and help their customers.
Join us in our effort to empower small businesses and transform the economic landscape. Join our revolution to help people reclaim ownership and freedom.
LiveSwitch is led by Chairman Brian Hamilton. Hamilton is well-known for founding Sageworks, America’s first fintech company, that was sold to Accel-KKR in 2018 and now operates as “Abrigo”
