Max K is a versatile sales and marketing professional with nine years of experience building brand presence, community engagement, and revenue for consumer, cannabis, and HVAC sectors across Canada. He combines consultative sales—navigating heat pump rebate programs and large government tenders—with hands-on growth marketing: organically scaling social accounts (11k+ to 150k+ handles), running paid media, and achieving engagement rates up to 50%. A practical project manager and co-founder, he has led cross-functional teams, executed content and merch drops, and delivered measurable e-commerce results (over $10k in 10 months). Max also brings technical curiosity to backend engineering work, contributing reliability and indexing improvements to the open-source Cadence workflow projects. Comfortable operating in regulated environments and crisis supply chains, he’s as adept at pitching investors internationally as he is at procuring scarce production inputs.
