    Description
    About Us:
    At Parafin, we're on a mission to grow small businesses.
    Small businesses are the backbone of our economy, but traditional banks often don't have their backs. We build tech that makes it simple for small businesses to access the financial tools they need through the platforms they already sell on.
    We partner with companies like DoorDash, Amazon, Worldpay, and Mindbody to offer fast and flexible funding, spend management, and savings tools to their small business users via a simple integration. Parafin takes on all the complexity of capital markets, underwriting, servicing, compliance, and customer service for our partners.
    We're a tight-knit team of innovators hailing from Stripe, Square, Plaid, Coinbase, Robinhood, CERN, and more - all united by a passion for building tools that help small businesses succeed. Parafin is backed by prominent venture capitalists including GIC, Notable Capital, Redpoint Ventures, Ribbit Capital, and Thrive Capital. Parafin is a Series C company, and we have raised more than $194M in equity and $340M in debt facilities.
    Join us in creating a future where every small business has the financial tools they need.
    About the Position
    We are looking for a Business Operations and Strategy Lead to help Parafin prioritize, evaluate, and execute strategic decisions that are rooted in data. You will be responsible for identifying, defining, and executing high-impact operational and strategic initiatives across Parafin. At Parafin, Business Operations is a dynamic team that works cross-functionally to accelerate Parafin's growth, design organizational processes that scale, and expand the company's opportunity space through new products and markets.
    Are you a mission-driven, analytical, and collaborative thinker and doer? If so, come join us
    What You Will Be Doing:
    • Identify, define, and execute high-impact operational and strategic initiatives across Parafin
    • Apply business analytics, market research, and insights to support the decision-making processes for some of the most pivotal decisions facing the business
    • Take new company functions from 0 - 1 as we build a next-generation fintech from scratch at Parafin
    • Build and/or improve business processes and drive cross-functional alignment on priorities
    • Perform ad hoc analyses related to impact sizing, partner acquisition, cohort patterns, unit economics, operations, new markets, and more
    • Do what needs to get done to help Parafin create value for our small business and platform customers
    What We're Searching For:
    • 5+ years of total work experience
    • 3+ years in management consulting, operations, strategic finance, private equity, or a similar role at a technology company
    • Strong fluency in (or desire to learn) data analysis skills and tools, such as SQL / Looker
    • Experience building and rolling out new processes from scratch
    • Superb communication skills (writing, data, oral)
    • Natural problem solver, both with data and with people
    • Proven ability to work and thrive in productively chaotic environments
    • Ruthless prioritizer; a creative and analytical thinker
    • T-shaped skills -- equally comfortable diving deep into financial minutiae and analyses, and zooming out to frame a high-level narrative

    • Experience working in fintech
    • Prior startup experience

    • Salary Range: $180k - $230k
