Rossum

Rossum, established in 2017 by Tomáš Gogár, Petr Baudiš, and Tomáš Tunys, emerged from their PhD research, which centered around harnessing artificial intelligence for document data extraction. Over time, their collective efforts led to the creation of a cutting-edge platform for intelligent document processing known as "Intelligent Document Processing" (IDP), which is unparalleled worldwide. Today, Rossum boasts a team of over 160 professionals hailing from 35+ different countries, working not only at the Prague headquarters but also in locations such as Luxembourg, London, Barcelona, Belgium, and Romania. Their primary focus at present is expansion, particularly bolstering their sales team in the United States to secure large enterprise clientele.

We build super smart AI colleagues

With the global advent of AI, automation has become the new standard, just as the cloud did. While other companies are just now learning to adapt standard language models, we develop our own solutions, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible and advancing the industry by leaps and bounds. In 2024, we launched the innovative Rossum Aurora system, followed this year by our specialized AI agents. Think of it as adding a highly efficient junior colleague to your team—one who reads exponentially more documents, flagging errors and complex cases. They learn from real-world data without making careless mistakes. This brings us closer to our mission: to empower a single person to process one million transactions per year.

In Search of Truth: Our Passion for Optimal Solutions

We're dedicated to uncovering the essence and finding the best solutions, regardless of their source. Our decision-making process involves thorough information gathering, data verification, and robust arguments to get to the heart of every issue. It's not about ownership, ego, or whose idea it was—it's about achieving the best possible outcome.

While we may have strong opinions, we readily pivot to the superior solution when presented with facts, data, and sound arguments. Working in a team that prioritizes excellence over being right is truly liberating.

Experience Explosive Growth

A Journey of Thriving Customers and Teams Amidst Exciting Challenges

Quarterly Transformations: Evolving with Purpose

To fulfill our vision, we aim to reach every company's computer, freeing people from document retyping. Rapid growth is crucial, so we adopt new business frameworks to stay at the forefront of the market. This leads to occasional adjustments in team structures, sprint durations, and more. Our dedication to innovation remains unwavering; we don't change for the sake of change. Every modification is purposeful, backed by logic, and we evaluate the expected benefits. Change is our strategy, not just a cliché.

Cultivating a Passion for Growth and Learning

We seek those who share our passion for continuous development and learning. Fast learners, driven by curiosity and unafraid of making mistakes, thrive here. Transparency about these qualities is key.

Your current or past role doesn't matter; what counts is your ability to learn quickly and drive progress. We evaluate seniority based on leadership, work structure, achievements, and willingness to share insights with others.

Where Fearless Innovators Thrive

At Rossum, we welcome individuals who thrive on pushing their limits, who possess the ability to chart a course when others are uncertain. We're looking for creative minds that can swiftly uncover unconventional solutions, relishing the freedom to forge new paths rather than following a predetermined route. We believe in creating Rossum for and with our like-minded team members, fostering a collaborative environment where we can rely on one another during busy times.

Earning Authority the Right Way

In Rossum, authority isn't about titles or tenure; it's earned through actions and relationships. It hinges on how you support your colleagues, deliver on promises, and communicate with honesty, kindness, and respect. Our leadership foundation revolves around genuine relationships, effective communication, and fostering personal growth in others. By helping those around us thrive, we, in turn, accelerate our own progress.

From Work to Passion

Working at Rossum is more than a job; it's a way of life we cherish. Whether it's the fantastic colleagues or Rossum's innovative technology, each of us has our reasons for falling in love with this company. Despite our differences, we're united by our shared commitment to Rossum's success and our willingness to go the extra mile. Our open, friendly atmosphere and authenticity at work keep us passionate about what we do, providing us with the energy we need.

The mindset is “getting shit done” – we are looking for thinkers, doers, and problem solvers. Everyone brings his own expertise and skill, and we need people who roll up their sleeves and get the work done. We are not that big, and we need to be quick and impactful.

Rami Deeb, Senior Field Marketing Manager

People here trust each other, and we don’t do micromanagement. If you do your job well, no one cares – and it’s actually really nice that we can manage ourselves.

Vlada Herevych, BDR

Forward-Thinking Approach

Unlike many companies that cut corners to save costs, Rossum takes a different path. We invest in systems designed for companies three times our size, ensuring we're ready for the future. With global expansion on the horizon, we've already made strategic moves. We adopted Salesforce at 50 employees, deployed Netsuite at 150, and currently use HiBob to enhance our People Team's capabilities.  We believe in making our team's work easier today while preparing for tomorrow's challenges. This demonstrates our commitment to growth and allows us to expand teams and serve customers without operational constraints.

You don't need to be the smartest in the room

A lot of very smart people work at Rossum. We don’t want to sound elitist, but you will genuinely meet some of the brightest minds and talents here. You won't feel like the smartest person in the room, and that’s a great thing. You’re surrounded by people who are the best in their field and constantly improving, which is a huge source of daily inspiration. We aren't here to compete over who's smarter or has the biggest ego. For all of us, it's a challenge and an opportunity to learn something new and have long, philosophical, and interesting discussions. It’s a guarantee you won't stagnate here.

These Beliefs Translate into our Four Values

Strong Opinions Weakly Held: We Are Fact-full

The scientific method is deeply rooted in our identity, that is why, changing our mind in front of new evidence makes us learners not 'drifters'.

We Are All TEAM Rossum

At Rossum, we build on what makes each of us unique, playing to the advantage of the team, not the individual. Teams achieve ambitious goals, not individuals alone.

We Believe Our Technology Can Change the World

We are passionate and have a deep appreciation for technology and its transformative power in enhancing people’s lives. We are driven by the desire to take on challenging and meaningful endeavors to create customer value.

We Learn Fast & Work Smart

We are explorers, looking to continuously learn and grow. There is little we can't learn with the right mindset, persistence, tactics, and working smart and efficiently.

In the realm of document data extraction, developers invariably encounter formidable challenges. We must standardize documents, enhance reading capabilities, and, most critically, gain a deep understanding of the data they contain. Our aim is to create a cutting-edge solution that's both technologically advanced and user-friendly for mainstream clients.

Unprecedented Processing Power

Our product engineering team is tasked with developing the document processing platform. While it can presently handle hundreds of documents per minute, our goal is to scale it to process tens of thousands in the same timeframe—an unprecedented challenge we're tackling head-on.

There's a lot more

We're also crafting a user-friendly web interface for clients, an extension of our AI capabilities. This interface enables clients to review, correct, and train the platform to recognize documents accurately. Our UX has always set us apart, and we're eager to take it further with the right talent.

Furthermore, we seamlessly integrate the backend, third-party services, and APIs to offer tailored solutions for larger clients.

Everything converges at the heart of artificial intelligence, where massive-scale neural networks and machine learning data infrastructure come into play. Our mission is to automate and productize every aspect effectively. For instance, when a client hits the "relearn" button, the app should generate the required dataset and elements automatically.

Prague as a Technological Hub

If the founders' vision of establishing a thriving machine learning and AI HUB in Prague, attracting global talent, becomes reality, our potential will be limitless. This vision is a collaborative effort with other successful global tech companies. With our exceptional people, top-notch technical education, and renowned Czech skills, we're well-prepared. We understand that groundbreaking concepts emerge when brilliant minds from diverse cultures converge around innovative ideas and technologies.

What distinguishes us as a world-class startup is our global reach, headquartered in the Czech Republic. Recognizing the need for a team well-versed in the international landscape, we've assembled one of the most diverse go-to-market teams in Prague, supplemented by colleagues in London, the USA, and Luxembourg.

Despite our varied backgrounds, we share a remarkable connection. Beyond our common goal of Rossum's success, we bond over humor, camaraderie, a positive outlook, and the ability to innovate in any scenario. We frequently gather for laughter-filled lunches and celebrations after securing deals. Whenever one of us returns from their home country, they bring back local treats for all to enjoy.

Diverse Workstyles, United Success

We're revolutionizing the hybrid work model, advocating for individual freedom in choosing how and where to work. Recognizing diverse preferences, there's no fixed standard at Rossum—whether you work from home or the office is your choice. This flexibility enhances well-being, productivity, and our collective pursuit of company goals and vision. We're cultivating an environment that respects individual choices, enriching our corporate culture and fueling our success.

Supercharge Your Sales Skills

Regardless of your experience level, our tailored development program equips you for success. Many of us started without prior sales experience, yet within two weeks, we were confidently arranging demos. Success is about determination and going the extra mile, qualities we highly value. We provide robust support in exchange for exceptional results, enabling rapid growth, regardless of tenure or position. What matters most is how you seize opportunities, and when you reach for them, we're here to support you.

Your Welcome Begins Before You Arrive

Our people-centric approach is evident in everything we do, including our onboarding process. We don't wait until your first day; we start two weeks in advance. You'll receive materials to get familiar with our culture and processes, ensuring a smooth transition into the team. On your first day, your buddy will introduce you to Rossum's history and values, and our onboarding team will provide ongoing support. Many of us were pleasantly surprised when, before joining, an onboarding team member reached out to offer assistance. That's the kind of warm welcome you can expect at Rossum.

The atmosphere here pushes you to explore things, to think – quality really matters here. We're all geeks who go home after work and keep coding on our own stuff, and there’s this cool Silicon Valley garage culture. People don’t leave Rossum to join MasterCard – they leave to build their own things, and I think that’s really cool.
