A little bit about us

We are a tech business that bundles household bills into one fixed monthly payment. One payment means easier finances, less time on the phone to suppliers, and less admin. It's a game changer.

Design our data models

Support analytics

Champion best practices

- Advocate for strong documentation, data governance, and version control. Assess new tools and technologies that can elevate our data capabilities.

Collaborate with DevOps and Engineering

- Ensure our data infrastructure is secure, scalable, and reliable.
