Who We Are

Hey, we’re Playbook. We’re making it easier to build wealth. By combining tax optimizations and automation, our financial system makes building wealth straight-forward and achievable for more people.

• You thrive in a startup environment. You’re scrappy and adventurous. You leverage all resources at your disposal(not just the obvious ones). You appreciate the fast pace and ever-changing nature of startups. You’re absurdly persistent and you take pride in doing more with less.
• You’re a proud co-owner. You have a sense of urgency — not the frantic kind, but the quick and deliberate kind. You know how to separate what must be done well now and what can be improved later. You take initiative to make the team more efficient.
• You’re curious and think BIG. You like to think about how things "work". When you don't understand, you keep digging until you understand it. When you don't know, you say you don't know. When you're wrong, you say you're wrong and that’s A-okay.

• You’re a straight shooter. You over-invest in communication but do it to understand, not to convince people you’re right. You’re open to suggestions and criticism. You use approachable language, not jargon. You’re open and honest, and you trust others do the same.
• You see the big picture. You care about doing the right thing. You value diversity and go out of your way to ensure others feel welcome. You enjoy hanging out with your teammates, are low-ego, and make the workplace more fun for everyone.
