Since 2018, Wisetack has been building transparent and intuitive consumer lending products that help service-based businesses thrive (think HVAC companies, veterinarians, or auto repair shops).
Our leadership team comes from top fintech companies such as Lending Club, Affirm, and Varo Money. And we’re backed by leading VCs, including Insight Partners, Greylock, and Bain Capital Ventures (investors in Airbnb, LinkedIn, Instagram, Dropbox, and more).
Having raised $84M, we’re a well-funded startup and have invested in people and technology while growing our partnerships — responsibly.
We’re also proud to have received recognition from the fintech world. Awards we’ve won include:
As a result of our efforts in building this healthy company culture, we’ve been nominated to several Great Places to Work lists, such as Best Small Workplaces, Best Workplaces in the Bay Area, and Best Workplaces in Financial Services & Insurance.
Like any startup, we’re in it for the long haul, and we’re looking for people willing to join our journey of building something special together.
This process starts with our company values, which guide us in everything we do — and have played a critical role in our success. We valiantly abide by them, and would expect you to do the same:
The Role
The finance team at Wisetack plays an essential role in providing top management with the visibility it needs to make decisions and understand the company’s performance. We strive to collaborate with operators to influence the company’s strategy and operations, not just “keep score.” As a fast-growing startup, you’ll enter a dynamic finance environment that’s always got something new happening, unique challenges to think through, and professional growth opportunities.
The accounting sub-function is responsible for recording all of the company’s financial transactions in a timely and accurate manner, while also handling our annual audit and tax work. We strive to build our processes with an eye for efficiency and automation, so we focus a lot on using the data generated by our tech stack in our process.
The Staff Accountant will work closely with our Accounting Manager to complete our financials monthly while continuously refining the process and controls that will carry us into our next chapter of growth. As a small and efficient team, you’ll get to work on many parts of our company’s financials, not just a small “box”. Over time, you’ll get opportunities to write code, conduct detailed analysis, and contribute to making us as efficient as possible.
