Sales Development Representative

About Meadow

Meadow is the first modern fintech platform transforming the $500 billion U.S. higher education payments industry by solving the dual complexities of the tuition payment process for students and accounts receivables for universities. We are expanding our business and want to do for universities what Shopify did for the retail industry, bringing the entire student financial experience online.

Our mission is simple: Empower students financially and improve economic mobility through higher education. We are building an ambitious, tenacious, and creative team who is unafraid of tackling new challenges. The founders are former leaders at Amazon, Outschool, Klarna and Amex. Investors include Susa Ventures, AlleyCorp, Giant Ventures, Treble Capital, and more.

Employees come to Meadow for the opportunity to work in a rapidly scaling tech start-up that remains steadfastly dedicated to its employees, its culture, and constant iteration and improvement.
