About Mattilda
Mattilda is building the finance-first operating system for education in Latin America. We help 1,000+ schools across Mexico, Colombia, and Ecuador manage payments, billing, academic operations, and financial products in a single platform. With $89M raised, we're scaling rapidly to transform how educational institutions operate.
Our mission: help schools operate with clarity, accuracy, and confidence—powered by technology and AI.
The Opportunity
Schools deserve complete financial clarity. As Mattilda processes millions in tuition payments, we have an extraordinary opportunity to give schools unprecedented visibility into their financial operations: what they've invoiced, what's been collected, what they've received through advances (factoring), and their complete cash position—all in real-time.
We're building the next generation of school financial operations. Imagine automated reconciliation that happens instantly, comprehensive dashboards that give complete transparency, and self-service finance products that schools can manage independently. We're transforming manual processes into intelligent, automated workflows powered by AI.
You'll architect a financial operating system that scales. Your work will define how over 1,000 schools understand and manage their finances - through reconciliation tools that provide instant clarity, reporting that supports confident decision-making, and finance products that are transparent, predictable, and easy to operate. This is a once-in-a-career opportunity to build financial infrastructure that will scale across Latin America and fundamentally change how schools operate.
