Monarch came out of private beta in early 2021. Since that time we have quickly become one of the premier ways to manage your financial life. Customers love the product and we have seen rapid, organic growth. Our users say that Monarch helps them feel more confident in their finances, and more confident in their financial future.
Our founding team consists of product-driven, serial entrepreneurs with multiple exits. Additionally, our CEO was one of the original creators of Mint.com and has a unique perspective on what is needed to meet consumers' needs in this market.
We are passionate about building a company, product and brand that both customers and employees love. We are well-funded by top venture firms and angel investors.
We founded the company as a fully-remote team (pre Covid!) and are open to applicants that live within a 5 hour time zone difference of US Pacific Time.
We’re looking for an experienced Staff or Principal-level Researcher to join Monarch as our first Consumer Insights Researcher. As one of the first hires in this role, you’ll be responsible for understanding our target audience, helping us position Monarch effectively, and ensuring we create the best possible user experience.
You have the opportunity to put tools and resources in place to get started. While we’ll build out the consumer insights team over time, you’ll initially be working independently. We need someone who’s comfortable taking the lead and running with research projects from the ground up. If you're passionate about consumer behavior and want to help shape a growing fintech brand, we’d love to hear from you!
