A college roommate invited the speaker to lunch and mentioned FinOptimal was hiring for sales. The speaker talked about his passion for automation and analytics. He saw a demo the next day, met founder Jesse Rubinfeld that week, and had a signed offer three weeks later.
My college roommate approached me one day and asked me to lunch. I had no idea that he was trying to convince me to come work at FinOptimal. So we went to lunch and he was like, you know, would you ever consider a job in sales? And I was like, I don't know, maybe. And he said, well, what do you like about your job? I said, I like the automation analytics parts that I get to do. And he said, well, that's exactly what we do. The next day he demoed FinOptimal for me, some of their really early tech. And I was like, okay, I'm interested. I talked with Jesse Rubinfeld, their founder, the next Friday. 3 weeks later, I had a signed offer letter. So it fell very much into my lap, kind of stumbled backwards into it, but that's how I got— it was really my love for automation and analytics and just happening to having that accounting and financial operations background is really what got me here.
