Work at the interface between customers and product to integrate stablecoin solutions and shape product roadmap.
About the company
- 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 going to bring better money to the world.
Conditions
- 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
Other
- The next wave of stablecoin adoption is in payments. We’re building a stablecoin clearinghouse to make stablecoins move like money, not a trading asset. We’re looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer who lives at the boundary between us and our customers. You'll come in earlier than a typical FDE - you'll help define the product surface area of what we build together with our partners. You'll translate customer requests into feedback that guides our product roadmap.
- Own the full integration lifecycle with customers and partners—from initial scoping and technical design through implementation, testing, and go-live.
- Be the connective tissue between our customers and our product. Digest, triage, and scope customer needs into actionable product input that shapes what we build next.
- Design and build shared tooling, SDKs, and documentation that make integrating with us fast and painless.
- Debug production issues across system boundaries—when something breaks between us and a partner, you’re the first responder.
- The dishes.
- 3+ years of experience building and shipping integrations with payment systems, financial infrastructure, and/or banking partners.
- You’ve been the person on the other end of the API – you know what good (and bad) integration experiences feel like.
- Excellent communication skills. You can translate between engineering-speak and customer-speak without losing fidelity.
- You thrive in ambiguity – you view a lack of specificity as an opportunity for ownership.
- Preferred but not required to have experience building with stablecoins and/or blockchains.
- 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!
- The Better Money Company is an equal opportunity employer. We are looking for the best!
