About Heiko Roth
Heiko Roth is the Co-Founder and CEO of Workerbee, an AI-powered platform for how companies hire and how specialists build their careers. He is based in Las Vegas, Nevada. His Crunchbase bio says he started as an independent consultant, then founded and scaled several companies. It credits those companies with more than $300M in services revenue, 300+ Fortune 2000 clients across North America, EMEA, LATAM and APAC, and recurring revenue growth to $4M+ ARR.
TheOrg lists earlier roles at Workforce Insight, EntryPoint and Axsium Group. It also lists a Bachelor of Applied Science from the University of Waterloo. A 2023 Business Wire release described him as an HR technology entrepreneur with over two decades in human resources. It said he co-founded Agilea Solutions, an IT services firm focused on human capital management, and TestAssure, an automated testing platform for global pay compliance.
Workerbee announced in October 2023 that Agilea Solutions would acquire it. At that point Roth became its CEO, according to the release. In June 2025 Workerbee announced a strategic investment from its founding team, with Chair Marce Roth and CEO Heiko Roth backing it. That release said he assumed the CEO role as part of the investment and described him as having three exits in enterprise software and services.
Crunchbase lists one personal investment, one portfolio company, no lead investments and no exits. That investment is in Workerbee, Inc. It is a founder-led round and not an outside angel check. We found no public record of angel investments in other founders' companies, and no public fund, syndicate or check size. His LinkedIn headline reads "Investing in the people and tech enabling HR, Payroll, & WFM".
His only documented AI investment is Workerbee. The June 2025 announcement said the capital would go toward its agentic AI infrastructure for hiring. That covers persistent, adaptive AI agents that match enterprises with specialists, plus platform development and growth of the specialist community.
Heiko Roth has not published a thesis, stage preference, geography or check size. His operating history and LinkedIn headline point to HR technology, payroll, workforce management and talent marketplaces. Founders in those areas, especially those selling to large enterprises, are the closest match to his experience. We found no public record of stages or sectors beyond that.
