At JustPaid.io, we're on a mission to revolutionize accounts receivable (AR) through innovative technology. As we expand our team, we are looking for exceptional engineers who are eager to contribute to the future of AR revenue. Check out our vision, the role we are hiring for, and the exciting hackathon challenge we have designed for prospective candidates.

Understanding Accounts Receivable (AR)

Accounts receivable refers to the outstanding invoices a company has, or the money owed to them by customers for goods or services delivered. In essence, it represents a crucial aspect of a company's cash flow. Every business, regardless of its size or industry, needs to manage its AR effectively to ensure a steady influx of revenue. Our goal at JustPaid.io is to simplify this process by using cutting-edge technology.

We are building an AI-powered AR agent platform that enables companies to receive payments seamlessly from any signed contract. Traditionally, once a contract is signed, the responsibility of collecting payment falls on human shoulders. Our platform aims to automate and streamline this process, allowing businesses to focus on what they do best while we handle the complexities of payment collection.

What We Are Looking For

To achieve our ambitious goals, we need talented engineers who are not just coders but innovators. We are seeking individuals who possess a hacker mentality—those who can think outside the box, build quickly, and are intrinsically motivated to create and learn. Our engineering team is collaborative, and we believe that everyone has something to teach and learn from one another.

We want people who are smart, savvy, and can bring fresh perspectives to our team. If you are someone who thrives in a dynamic environment and is excited about the potential of AI in finance, you could be the perfect fit for us.

The Hackathon Challenge

As part of our hiring process, we have designed a hackathon that allows candidates to showcase their skills and creativity. The challenge is to build a finder service—a platform that connects businesses with financial experts in their respective industries.

What is a Finder Service?

A finder service is a platform that helps users locate professionals who can provide specific services. In our case, we want a platform where businesses can easily search for financial experts, such as accountants, CFOs, or AR revenue collection specialists. This service will facilitate the connection between companies seeking financial guidance and professionals offering their expertise.

Key Features to Include

When developing your finder service, consider the following key features:

  • User Profiles: Create profiles for both business users and financial experts, showcasing their skills, experience, and reviews.
  • Search Functionality: Implement search filters that allow users to find experts based on specific criteria such as location, expertise, and ratings.
  • Account Creation: Enable users to create accounts to save their searches and preferences.
  • Quote Requests: Allow businesses to request quotes directly from financial professionals.
  • Review System: Incorporate a review system where users can leave feedback based on their experiences.

Examples of Existing Finder Services

To inspire your project, consider examining existing finder services in various industries. Here are a few examples:

  • Thumbtack: A platform connecting users with local service providers, such as painters and handymen.
  • Yelp: Widely known for restaurant reviews, but also offers listings for various service professionals.
  • Avvo: A legal service finder that helps users locate lawyers based on their specific needs.
  • Care.com: A service that connects families with caregivers, including babysitters and pet sitters.

Leveraging AI in Your Project

While incorporating AI into your project is not mandatory, it is highly encouraged. AI can enhance user experience significantly. For example, consider adding a chatbot that assists users in navigating the platform or answering frequently asked questions. This could not only streamline the user experience but also demonstrate your ability to integrate advanced technologies into practical applications.

The Application Process

After completing the hackathon project, we encourage you to submit your work along with a brief video presentation to our designated email: hackathon@justpaid.ai. In this video, explain your approach, the technologies you used, and any challenges you faced during the development process. This will give us insight into your problem-solving skills and creativity. We appreciate the effort you put into your project, and it will significantly enhance your chances of landing an interview with us. Our team is excited about the possibility of working with passionate individuals who are eager to contribute to the future of finance.We invite you to take part in our hackathon challenge and showcase your skills.
