Head of Marketing

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.

Whats 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.

Were 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.
