Austin has been growing its identity as a tech hub for the last few years, and the statistics show it. According to CompTIA’s Cyberstates report, the city’s tech jobs grew by 41.4% between 2015 and 2020. Part of that growth is thanks to a welcoming start-up environment. Austin ranks 11th globally for startup ecosystem strength, according to StartupBlink’s 2019 Startup Ecosystem Rankings report.
In this kind of culture and environment, it makes sense that companies like Mothership describe themselves as “dynamic.” The go-to freight partner for several major companies’ online markets has been growing in leaps and bounds. They announced last year that they’d raised $76 million for expanding operations.
Tom Snyder, senior account executive, has been with the company for over three years. He told Built In that being quick to respond and shift is a key value. “Mothership embodies dynamism, reflecting our culture's role in driving change and progress,” he said.
With companies like this populating the Austin tech scene, it’s no wonder the city’s growth is continuing.
Mothership’s cutting-edge technology is revolutionizing the world of freight delivery, unlocking its full potential by streamlining logistics and enhancing efficiency.

How long have you been with the company, and what professional growth or development have you seen in that time?
I’ve been with Mothership for over three years, experiencing significant personal and professional growth. I’ve honed my skills in selling across diverse markets from small businesses to enterprises, and learned the art of “problem centric selling” rather than just pushing products. This experience has not only developed my own abilities but also enabled me to contribute to building a high-caliber sales team.
