About Us

Small businesses are the backbone of the US economy, comprising almost half of the GDP and the private workforce. Yet, big banks don’t provide the access, assistance and modern tools that owners need to successfully grow their business.

We started Novo to challenge the status quo—we’re on a mission to increase the GDP of the modern entrepreneur by creating the go-to banking platform for small businesses (SMBs). Novo is flipping the script of the banking world, and we’re excited to lead the small business banking revolution.

At Novo, we’re here to help entrepreneurs, freelancers, startups and SMBs achieve their financial goals by empowering them with an operating system that makes business banking as easy as iOS. We developed the first AI-powered bank accounts to help to save time and increase cash flow. Our unique product integrations enable easy access to tracking payments, transferring money internationally, managing business transactions and more. We’ve made a big impact in a short amount of time, helping over 60,000 organizations access powerfully simple business banking.

We are looking for a KYC Analyst who understands how to ensure that our platform can continue operating in an efficient manner while minimizing downside losses and reducing friction in the onboarding process. If you're passionate about working for a revolutionary early-stage startup, poised for rapid growth and expansion then we want to chat. Are you ready to revolutionize the small business banking industry with us?
