What are the responsibilities and job description for the Field Services Manager position at PayRange?
Overview
Do you carry change in your pocket? If not, you’re among the millions of people who have become “cashless” – yet millions of unattended retail machines in this $45 billion industry are still largely dependent on cash and coin. This is 2024 and the machines have been stuck in the 1990s – until now.
PayRange is powering mobile commerce on traditionally “dumb” machines such as vending, laundry, amusement, car washes, and more. The company developed a low-cost, clever solution that has more than 100 patents! The patented approach leverages the user’s smartphone and network connectivity eliminating the need to connect the machine to a network enabling rapid upgrades of existing machines.
PayRange is reinventing how people pay “things” and bringing these legacy machines rapidly into the digital age with not only cashless payment, but also remote visibility for the machine owner fueling analytics and business improvements like never before.
The company has product market fit, market validation, a loyal, innovative team, and a proven – and profitable – business model. The company serves both small business and enterprise customers. The company recently completed a sizeable investment round and is now staffing up to manage explosive growth. If you ever wondered what it would have been to join Square, PayPal, or Toast when they were just 30 employees, then the time to join PayRange is now!
