Remote (U.S.)
Our client is a growth-stage, NYC-headquartered FinTech company that is creating the best rent-payment experience. It’s hard to believe that it’s 2025 and paying rent on time is still expensive, inflexible, and difficult. They are here to change that. Our client enables users to pay rent throughout the month on a schedule that better fits their finances and budget. Their mission is to empower as many renters as possible with flexibility over their most significant recurring expense.
