About:

GoTu is changing the way the world works - starting with the Dental Industry! We’re an ambitious and motivated tech startup. With multiple rounds of venture back funding, our platform and app are disrupting the dental staffing industry. Since launching in late 2019, we’ve built the largest community of nationwide hygienists and dental offices, dwarfing our established competition in the dental tech staffing space. It’s truly a matter of time until GoTu is the industry standard for dental staffing needs in the Dental Community!

We’re in the process of rapidly expanding the capabilities and functions of our app to capture even more market share, and we need high-quality, talented and driven individuals to come aboard and help make GoTu a Unicorn (Unicorn=Start-ups valued at $1 billion within five years of launch).
