About Rightfoot
Rightfoot is tackling the largest untapped opportunity in fintech — consumer debt, a $14.56+ trillion dollar problem. Backed by Bain Capital Ventures and founders and operators from successful fintech companies like Plaid, Venmo, and Marqeta — we are uniquely positioned to develop APIs that make it possible to integrate debt repayment into any product.
What’s the problem: Debt accounts are not routable entities like bank accounts. The use cases we bring to life require the development of novel payment rails. We integrate directly with loan servicers whose backends were built in the 1970s to standardize and streamline debt payments.
The societal impact: Women hold two thirds of all student debt (>$1T) despite near equal graduation rates. Systemic racism has led to historically underrepresented groups holding 30%+ more debt than their peers. Rightfoot is enabling life changing technology for millions of people.
We’re on a mission to maximize wealth for underrepresented populations. Named one of the top 50 seed-stage startups to work for, Rightfoot is an incredible opportunity to join a well funded, fast growing company tackling a $14T market. Come join us.
About the Role
As our first sales hire you’ll collaborate closely with the CEO, wearing many hats. This is not your traditional enterprise sales role, but rather a role fit for a "sales athlete" who can juggle multiple projects, support the CEO in sales, design processes and playbooks, fill our funnel with new leads, analyze leaks in the funnel, and help us close new business.
You will help our CEO build the scalable foundations of our sales organization from the ground up. You will meet frequently with prospects that you source, record meetings into our CRM, and analyze and share insights based on your findings. You’ll design, iterate on, and execute new approaches to reach our target customer, including case studies, collateral, campaigns, and more.
In short, no two days will be alike, and your energy and creativity will take you far!
