Job Description

WHAT WERE BUILDING

After creating custom payment systems in-house at previous companies and realizing the pain of keeping these ad-hoc solutions up to date, we started asking how other businesses were handling their business-to-business payment needs.

We spent 9 months conducting over 300 customer development interviews and came up with a framework to build the simplest way to send and receive B2B payments. Three years later, we have a product that we are proud of and a healthy list of happy customers, but we are really just getting started.

We are a small, but quickly growing engineering first startup with our team working remotely from a city they love! Our environment encourages intellectual curiosity, problem solving, and opennessone that provides the support and mentorship needed to succeed, learn, and grow. Well make sure you have everything you need to do your best work and make an impact.

BENEFITS

REMOTE

We are a remote friendly culture! Rather than restrict ourselves to only find talent in one city, wed rather find the absolute best people regardless of where they live. One amazing benefit to our remote culture, is that it enables our team to enjoy traveling more regularly since they can literally work from wherever! RENDEZVOUS To help foster amazing relationships with our coworkers, we meet up quarterly as a whole team in some pretty awesome cities! In the past weve met up in San Diego, Seattle, and Austin. Wed rather invest money into memorable team events rather than expensive offices. During our meet-up team time, we love to spend time learning a new skill together, and solving problems. Most recently this has taken on the form of a bread-making class and defeating an Escape Room. Yeah.. We love to compete together as a team.
