Dill is revolutionizing payments, AR and trade credit for the $2T construction materials industry. Material suppliers, distributors, and wholesalers are some of the most important stakeholders in the construction industry but are often the last to get paid. These companies are the backbone of the US economy - they are the nexus of what gets built and what gets moved in this country. At Dill, we build products that help construction suppliers improve cash flow, reduce risk, operate more efficiently, and stay competitive. You’ll be joining a YC backed, fast-growing company with a second-time founder (previous exit in construction technology).

- Have high autonomy, own things end to end, and project manage your own work.
What We're Looking For
