Build the Future of Global Consumer Finance
Our client is building a next-generation consumer finance platform designed for emerging markets, in partnership with extremely large global distribution partners.
They are creating a joint virtual banking + cryptocurrency wallet that allows users worldwide to move seamlessly within a unified financial ecosystem.
Why Now?
Stablecoins are transforming cross-border payments.
There is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to rebuild financial infrastructure for the 3 billion people who need faster, cheaper, and more reliable financial rails.
This is a ground-floor opportunity in the rapidly expanding stablecoin ecosystem.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
$320K–$400K in cash compensation (no equity risk)
Day 1 impact on products used by millions globally
Direct collaboration with proven founders (multiple successful exits)
Small, senior-only engineering team moving fast
Shape architecture and technical vision from the ground up
Well-funded and execution-focused
The Role: Technical Lead (Hands-On)
This is a hands-on engineering leadership role for someone with deep full-stack breadth and strong architectural judgment.
You will help define and build:
iOS App (Swift)
Android App (Kotlin)
Web App (React)
Backend Platform (Python + FastAPI, Postgres, AWS)
You will set engineering standards, guide architectural decisions, and lead the delivery of a high-performance, secure, and compliant financial product handling real-money movement at international scale.
This role includes close collaboration with product, design, and operations, and direct partnership with the founders. As the company scales, this role may expand into broader engineering leadership across platforms.
