Payments Engineer

TL;DR The next wave of stablecoin adoption is payments. We're building a stablecoin clearinghouse to make stablecoins move like money, not a trading asset. We're looking for a Payments Engineer who's obsessed with building fast, reliable, better money movement systems. About Us: we believe stablecoins are better money and will be the backbone of better payments. We see key structural problems hindering stablecoin adoption, and we're going to fix them -- starting with building a clearinghouse. We're a small scrappy team based in NYC, we've raised $10M from a16z Crypto and other excellent partners, and we're here to bring better money to the world. What You'll Do: - Design, build, and scale components of our fiat money movement clearing system. - Build integrations with banks, stablecoin issuers, custodians, and other partners. - Design and build core product functionality to enable better stablecoin payments products. - The dishes. What We're Looking For: - 3+ years of experience building deeply with payment systems, financial infrastructure, and/or banking integrations - You've scaled a payment system from 0-1 and ideally also taken it 1-10. - Deep understanding of fiat payment rails (ACH, wires, RTP, etc.) - Strong fundamentals in distributed systems - you balance shipping quickly with building robust systems that can scale. - You thrive in ambiguity - you view a lack of specificity as an opportunity for ownership. Our Values: - Be offended by the status quo - a payment taking 3 days and costing 3% is offensive. Every day that people interact with legacy financial infrastructure costs humanity time and money. Bring the future forward with righteous indignation. - Be all over it - operate with extreme urgency and accountability. Know the numbers, meet the right people, answer every email, go the extra mile. Ask yourself: can it be done today? - We sell trust - trust is easy to lose. Security and integrity are our foundation. Use every interaction and every product as an opportunity to build trust. This is non-negotiable. - Do the dishes - we are all owners. Put ego aside and get shit done. - Be the glue - pick each other up and make each other better. Be direct, be helpful, and assume positive intent. Win as a team. - We enjoy the crucible! We are on a mission to change money. It takes a lot of optimism to attack such an ambitious goal. Our opportunity is a privilege and we don’t forget that. Especially when the journey is hard. If these values speak to you, come talk to us! Benefits: We're playing the long-game. We think you should too. This means investing in our employees. We offer comprehensive (and growing) benefits, including: - Competitive salary and equity - Comprehensive insurance (medical/dental/vision) - Unlimited vacation: Take time when you need it - Periodic off-sites Equal Opportunity Employment: The Better Money Company is an equal opportunity employer. We are looking for the best!
