About Salsa
Salsa is rebuilding the most important piece of the business stack: getting workers paid. Workers should be paid faster, more easily and more transparently so we're building the payroll infrastructure that will support the next generation.
Salsa is an embedded fintech company. We believe payroll should be built directly into the tools businesses already love to use, so we help other software platforms launch their own modern payroll products with our APIs and infrastructure. Turning every modern SaaS platform into a cutting edge payroll provider will finally disrupt the $50bn of revenue that’s going to legacy payroll providers each year - and we think it’s about time.
Salsa is run by a seasoned leadership team and will be our CEO’s second startup unicorn. Under the hood is an elite engineering team of payroll technology experts who love to build and have 200 years of experience working on payroll infrastructure. We’re well-funded, ready to grow and love to work from offsites in exciting corners of the world, so bring your ambition and your passport.

You’ll be responsible for doing just about everything to support our growing business and our CEO’s top initiatives.
