We’re a passionate team on a mission to change how money moves around the world. Our venture is all about making cross-border payments faster, cheaper, and more reliable — and we believe that merging blockchain into the existing payment flows will help drive this.

The Opportunity:

The realm of cross-border payments represents a staggering $2.4 trillion market, ripe for innovation. Our approach is unique: we are blending the best of Web2 and Web3 infrastructures to craft a solution that promises unparalleled value for customers.

Cross-border payments are a lifeline connecting people and businesses around the world. Every year, billions of dollars are sent across borders, often with high fees and slow processing times. We’re building a solution that will make these transactions almost effortless and much more affordable.

The Challenge:

This isn’t an easy task. The integration of Web2 and Web3 infrastructures is uncharted territory, requiring not just technical expertise but visionary leadership. The complexity of this task is significant, but so is the potential reward.

The Impact:

Our solution goes beyond mere transactions; it’s about empowering businesses and, by extension, their customers. By offering a more efficient way to transfer funds, we’re not just moving money — we’re enhancing the value that reaches families and businesses across borders.

Why Us:

Our team is not just a group of professionals; we are pioneers driven by the belief that blockchain and Web3 technologies can bring about monumental changes in the payments ecosystem. Our diverse expertise and unwavering commitment set us apart.

The Role:

This is where you come in. We’re looking for a founding technology leader who’s not just skilled in tech, but who also loves tackling tough problems and is excited about building something from the ground up.
In this role, you can expect to:

  • Pilot — Develop a robust tech infrastructure capable of handling growth and scale.
  • Cultivate Innovation — Lead a team dedicated to continuous product enhancement while maintaining core stability.
  • Simplify Integration — Create user-friendly solutions for payment initiators and Web3 participants.
  • Expand Horizons — Adapt our core solution to new markets and verticals.
  • Fuel Growth — Play a key role in future fundraising and strategic planning.

The Ideal Candidate:

  • Proven experience in building scalable B2B/B2C payment platforms, preferably in both Web2 and Web3 ecosystems.
  • A track record of growing teams from the ground up, particularly in high-transaction environments.
  • Experience in the Middle East or Philippines markets is a plus.
  • Expertise in high-frequency/algo trading, FX market tools, remittance, and payout products.
  • A strong understanding of NodeJS.
  • Proficiency in C, Java, or Rust.
