Fundera is transforming the world of business finance by replacing old school loan brokers with a smart and intuitive online shopping experience. We’re a technology company first and a financial company second. But, most importantly, we’re fiercely mission-driven.

Entrepreneurs are the biggest job creators in our country. By building tools that make access to financing—one of the biggest challenges they do and will ever face—easier, we’re not only taking stress out of their day to day but enabling them to grow. They don’t say “it takes money to make money” for nothing. We’re a true financial advisor to these business owners, partnering with them to improve their creditworthiness over time and take care of all their future financing needs.

We’re a team of experienced technology leaders, well-funded and backed by industry-leading investors who are hands on in helping us meet our lofty goals.

We’re a young company—started in February 2014—that has helped over 6,000 businesses secure more than $300,000,000 in funding. We’re looking to continue this trajectory and need great people to get there.
