Who We Are

Backed by leading investors including Uncork Capital, Craft Ventures, and Village Global, Overflow builds secure, beautifully designed infrastructure that powers generosity at scale.

Our Founding Principles

Overflow was founded on the belief that generosity transforms people and communities. Inspired by Proverbs 11:24 — “The world of the generous gets larger and larger” — we operate with integrity, stewardship, service, and excellence.

In-Office Expectation

As part of our commitment to collaboration, team members are required to participate in designated in-person collaboration days on Mondays and Wednesdays at our Los Gatos, CA, or Birmingham, AL offices. Employees must be willing and able to commute to one of these locations as part of their job responsibilities.

You enjoy solving problems, communicating early, and helping people succeed. Support is delivered across multiple channels – including email, phone, occasional video calls – depending on the complexity of the issue.
