About Us

We’re an early-stage startup building a state of the art stablecoin payments platform. Our mission is to simplify moving money across borders for licensed financial institutions. We're backed by experienced founders, moving fast, and looking for someone to own the engineering side of the house alongside us.

What You’ll Do

• Build and scale the on-chain stablecoin payments platform — from backend systems to third-party integrations and smart contracts. 
• Design and implement chain-agnostic integrations with platforms such as Ethereum, Solana, and others, including smart contracts and account abstraction mechanisms.
• Design and deliver solutions that enable seamless platform integration into customers’ existing payment and financial systems. 
• Carefully review API specifications and payment-provider workflows, and embed those protocols and data flows into our platform’s architecture. 
• Build a configurable platform that can be tailored to individual customer needs while maintaining a robust core product 
• Hire, mentor, and grow an engineering team. 
• Make key architectural decisions and own core infrastructure from day one. 
• Work closely with founders on product and technical direction. 

Who You Are

• You’ve shipped blockchain-based products (ideally on both EVM and non-EVM chains) and are familiar with smart contracts, security, and Web3 tooling. 
• Deep understanding of smart contract development, custodial wallet solutions (e.g., Fireblocks, MPC wallets), and gas/account abstraction
• Direct experience with one or more major cloud providers — AWS, GCP, or Azure
• AI-first mindset ideally with practical experience building code through AI tools and deploying MPC server infrastructure.
• Hands-on experience deploying and operating services using Kubernetes (K8s) and cloud-native tooling
• Strong background in backend engineering, scalable microservices architecture, and event-driven workflows. 
• You can take full ownership in a zero-to-one environment (experience doing this is highly preferred). 
• You’re collaborative, low-ego, and excited to solve messy problems. 
• Bonus: You've worked on payments, stablecoins, or global finance, but not required.

Why Join Now

• Early ownership — this is a founding-level role. Plus early stage equity
• Build from first principles in a space that’s exploding with opportunity.
• Work directly with the founding team, move fast, and ship real impact.
• Help define not just the tech, but the company.
