## Job description

## About Us

Rho is the modern banking platform built for the AI era. Startups and growth-stage companies can open accounts in minutes, issue cards, manage expenses, pay bills, and close the books – all in one connected platform backed by real human support.

## About the role

Rho is building a revenue engine for our SMB segment, and you're running it day to day. You'll work every warm/inbound SMB lead within 5 minutes of it hitting the pipeline, run a reactivation motion against dormant SMB accounts, and close and fund lower-value SMB deals yourself. You'll also book meetings on higher-value opportunities for the closing team, and run the weekly plays Growth/Marketing sets so we can test what actually moves SMB pipeline. This isn't a queue-watching seat: you're expected to build and improve the tooling that makes speed and reactivation work at scale, not just grind them by hand. You'll report to our VP, Marketing, with a direct line into how this program gets built.

## What you'll do

- Respond to every warm/inbound SMB lead within 5 minutes. This is a hard SLA we track weekly, not an aspiration.
- Own the tooling behind that SLA: routing, alerting, and follow-up automation, so speed is engineered into the system, not dependent on someone watching a queue.
- Run the weekly play the Growth/Marketing lead sets, whether that's a new outbound angle, a channel test, or a messaging variant, and report back what worked. You're the one testing our hypotheses in market, every week.
- Book meetings for the closing team on higher-value SMB opportunities.
- Close and fund lower-value SMB deals yourself, start to finish, including getting the account actually funded.
- Continuously improve your own CRM workflows, sequencing, and outbound tooling. Leave it better than you found it each quarter.

## What we're looking for

- Demonstrated technical proficiency: something concrete you've built or shipped (an app, a tool, a side project). We expect you to apply that instinct here by automating your own pipeline, not just working it by hand.
- A background suited to fluency in complex financial topics (e.g., a finance degree or equivalent), paired with genuine confidence in cold-calling situations: public speaking, competitive/club sports, or similar reps of putting yourself out there under pressure.
- Evidence, not a story: prior quota attainment, high-volume rejection tolerance, or a specific example of coaching feedback that changed how you worked within a week.
- Comfortable running a new play every week and reporting honestly on what didn't work, not just what did.
- Comfortable owning a number in an undefined, early-stage motion, including comp and quota being re-cut as the role matures.

Our people are our most valuable asset. The base salary for this role is $55,000. In addition to base pay, Rho offers equity, healthcare benefits and paid time off. This role is eligible for an uncapped performance bonus paid quarterly. Inclusive of on-target performance bonuses, the total salary range for this role is $80,000. Diversity is a core value at Rho. We’re passionate about building and sustaining an inclusive and equitable environment for all those involved with our mission, including employees, contractors, candidates, customers and vendors. We believe every member of the Rho community enriches our ability to provide a broad range of ways to understand and engage with the market, identify problems, and drive solutions that align with our mission. We welcome all qualified applications and support each of our Rho’ers with ongoing professional growth opportunities.

## About Rho

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Rho is a modern financial platform that combines business banking, corporate cards, treasury, bill pay, expense management, and accounting automation into a single connected workflow for startups and scaling companies.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Series C, $365M total funding per [fastaijobs.com](https://www.fastaijobs.com/companies/rho))
- **Headquarters**: New York, United States
- **Founded**: 2018
- **Founders**: Not publicly named on the website or in widely available biographical detail (the platform was built by an internal team; the "About Us" page references the founding team as having built the platform they "wish we had when we first launched the company" [rho.co/about](https://www.rho.co/about))

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Financial Services / Fintech – specifically Business Banking, Spend Management, and Corporate Cards.
- **Target customers**: B2B – founders (from two-person startups to public companies), finance teams (controllers, CFOs), and business owners at all stages of growth.
- **Mission/purpose**: Built to eliminate financial busywork, enabling companies to focus on building a world-changing business. As stated on their "About Us" page: "We built the Rho platform for them… to focus less on busywork and more on activities that actually drive the business forward." [rho.co/about](https://www.rho.co/about)

## Products & Services
- **Business Checking & Savings Accounts**: FDIC-insured accounts for managing day-to-day cash flow.
- **Rho Cards**: Corporate credit cards with strict spend limits, category restrictions, and expense rules to control spending.
- **Bill Pay**: AI-powered invoice scanning, automated approval routing, and direct payments to vendors.
- **Expense Management**: Automated reimbursements and real-time transaction organization to keep compliance in check.
- **Treasury Accounts**: Earn competitive market yields on company cash that would otherwise sit idle.
- **Accounting Integrations**: Syncing across banking, cards, and treasury so books stay clean and audit-ready.
- **Rho Mobile App**: A mobile interface for on-the-go management.

All of these are offered as a connected SaaS platform. [rho.co](https://www.rho.co/)

## Market Standing
- **Valuation**: Not publicly disclosed.
- **Key Metric – Total Funding**: **$365M** per [fastaijobs.com](https://www.fastaijobs.com/companies/rho) (specific breakdown from [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/rhobusiness/jobs) per Crunchbase-equivalent data: $197M total across Seed ($4.9M + $2.3M), Series A ($15M), Series B ($75M), and Debt Financing ($100M) — however, the higher "Series C" figure of $365M in total funding suggests a later round occurred or different aggregator methodology).
- **Net Discrepancy Note**: Different sources report total funding inconsistently: Crunchbase data via LinkedIn shows $197M across 4 early rounds, while a newer aggregator (fastaijobs) cites $365M. This is labeled as **conflicting reports**.
- **Annual Revenue**: **$25M** as estimated by [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/rhobusiness/jobs) (note: may be a third-party estimate, not company-verified).
- **Notable Investors**: List includes Grid Dynamics, Capital One, American Express, Goldman Sachs, Microsoft (as employer talent sources, suggesting staff migration from these firms) [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/rhobusiness/jobs). Debt financing (April 2021) had a single undisclosed investor; Series B (Dec 2021) had 5 investors.
- **Growth Signals**:
  - Headcount of **236 employees** as of mid-2026, with **+30.2% YoY growth** [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/rhobusiness/jobs).
  - **32 open roles** as of mid-2026 [rho.co/careers](https://www.rho.co/careers), spanning NYC, San Francisco, Austin, Boston, Los Angeles, Belgrade (Serbia), Poland (remote), and US-wide remote.
  - Active hiring in engineering (Senior/Full Stack Software Engineers), Go-to-Market (Account Executives, Advisors, Startups Banking), Product (VP of Product, Product Managers, Design), and Marketing (Brand, Events, Consumer).

## Competitive Advantages
- **All-in-one platform**: Unlike piecemeal setups, Rho connects banking, cards, treasury, bill pay, and expense management in one workflow — reducing the need for 3–5 separate vendors.
- **Fast implementation**: "Get up and running quickly with hands-on onboarding and a dedicated team… response times under a minute" [rho.co](https://www.rho.co/).
- **Enterprise-grade without bloat**: "No monthly fees" and strict spend controls, while still offering features like AI invoice scanning and automated approvals.
- **Global presence**: Operating across 7 countries (US, Serbia, Poland, Philippines, UK, Switzerland, Canada) [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/rhobusiness/jobs) enables multi-currency/regional support for scaling clients.

## Strategic Focus
- **Scaling with customers**: The platform is explicitly designed to support companies "from inception stage to IPO and beyond… never outgrow" the platform [rho.co/about](https://www.rho.co/about).
- **Hiring expansion**: Aggressively hiring across go-to-market, engineering, product, and marketing (50% monthly increase in job postings, 2000% quarterly increase) [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/rhobusiness/jobs), signaling a major growth push.
- **Automation depth**: Focus on AI-driven features (invoice scanning, expense automation) to reduce manual finance work.
- **Treasury/Runway focus**: Emphasis on putting cash to work (treasury yields) suggests a strategic bet on serving cash-rich startups and SMBs looking to maximize runway.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture highlight**: Described as a place for "obsessive people" who want to "hone your craft, ship faster than you thought possible, and do the most ambitious work of your career" [rho.co/careers](https://www.rho.co/careers). The "About Us" page repeatedly emphasizes "creating delightful experiences" for customers and earning the right to serve them.
- **Remote/Hybrid/Office Policy**: Mixed model. Roles exist in NYC (HQ), San Francisco, Austin, Boston, Los Angeles, Belgrade, and Poland (remote). Some roles are explicitly "US - Remote" or "Poland - Remote" while others specify a city (e.g., "NYC", "San Francisco"). The company has 4 offices globally (likely NYC, SF, Belgrade, and one other) [rho.co/careers](https://www.rho.co/careers).
- **Notable perks/culture signals**:
  - 32 open roles spanning multiple functions — strong signal of growth.
  - Technical staff makes up 22% of headcount; Sales 10%; Finance 9%, suggesting an engineering-led but GTM-heavy current hiring phase.
  - Talent sources include American Express (32 hires), Capital One (7), Microsoft (7), Goldman Sachs (5) — implying a strong Fintech/Finance DNA.
  - Alumni go to Rippling, Amazon, Deloitte — suggesting a pedigree similar to high-growth Fintech.
- **Engineering culture**: With 73 technical staff (22% of total), and open roles for Senior Software Engineers (Belgrade + Poland remote), Full Stack Engineers (Poland remote), and multiple Product Designers, engineering appears to be a core focus area for growth.
