About Fundbox

The Fundbox story began when a co-founder’s mother couldn’t solve cash flow problems to grow her small business. That set us off on a journey to level the playing field for small businesses by providing them with financial tools that never existed before. We do this by combining cutting-edge deep learning and data science technologies with outstanding design. Fundbox has raised over $100 million in capital from leading Silicon Valley investors such as Khosla Ventures, General Catalyst Partners, and Spark Capital. Fundbox has offices in downtown San Francisco and Tel Aviv, Israel.

An Insider's view of Fundbox

How would you describe the company’s work-life balance?

We work hard, but Fundbox is not a place where success and work is put above everything else. I feel my contributions are valued, but my mental health and overall well-being are valued above that.

Account Specialist

What makes someone successful on your team?

We encourage initiative, collaboration and ownership. Someone who is successful on our team is a person who sees a high-value problem worth fixing, takes the initiative to lead a project to solve this problem and works collaboratively with other functions to resolve the issue.
