Roo operates a two-sided staffing marketplace for veterinary relief work, using HubSpot, Braze, and Snowflake to manage supply and demand across hospitals and licensed professionals. The company is encountering classic marketplace friction—growing vet supply, low placement conversion, and scaling design operations—while hiring remains concentrated in marketing, data, and product roles. Talent retention within the professional network appears to be a structural challenge, not just a hiring velocity issue.
Roo is a veterinary staffing platform founded in 2019 that matches animal hospitals with licensed veterinarians and vet techs for short-term relief coverage and permanent placement. The platform serves hospitals seeking flexible staffing solutions to reduce appointment wait times and manage burnout, while offering veterinary professionals schedule flexibility and hourly rates above traditional employment. The company is based in San Francisco with 51–200 employees and operates exclusively within the United States. Current focus spans onboarding program development, performance management frameworks, and design system standardization to support product scaling.
Roo's core stack includes HubSpot (CRM), Slack, Figma, Braze (messaging), LiveChat, SQL, dbt, Snowflake (data warehouse), and AWS. No major tech replacements or new adoptions are currently documented.
Roo is headquartered in San Francisco, California, and all hiring activity is currently in the United States.
