We are building financial infrastructure for the future of flexible work: helping companies pay independent contractors accurately, on time and in compliance – simplifying complex financial operations that historically slow businesses down. As we continue to grow, we are strengthening our finance team with a detail-oriented accountant who enjoys building clean systems, improving processes and supporting a high-performing team.
