Job Description

### About Confido (YC S21)

Confido is a Y Combinator-backed next-generation financial automation and
intelligence platform that helps fast-growing CPG brands operate and scale
more efficiently.

### About the role

Confido automates the expensive work of retrieving and analyzing CPG
accounting data so that fast-growing CPG brands can track and optimize their
spend. In 2024, it shouldn’t take 100+ hours of human labor for Mr. Beast’s
Feastables (one of our customers) to determine how many millions were spent on
in store promotions last quarter; and whether or not that money was well
spent. To solve these problems, we’ve built an all-in-one solution that deeply
integrates with ERPs and other accounting systems, scrapes financial data from
retailers and distributors, and leverages modern AI to analyze financial
documents.

**Today, we work with 70+ fast-growing brands, processing $3b+ in revenue. We
have raised $3.6M from leading investors.**

Our team has deep industry experience from Anheuser-Busch and SimpleMills, and
engineering experience from Google, Square, HubSpot, and ThoughtSpot.

### The Role

Location: New York, NY (in-person, relocation assistance available)

Compensation: $150,000 and $200,000 + Benefits + Meaningful Equity (.7% -
1.1%).

features and systems from the ground up. This role offers the unique
opportunity to shape the product landscape and make a tangible impact on our
