What they're building

Card product that lets users spend crypto as an ordinary card payment weak signal

Today: making crypto payments reliable, useful, and ubiquitous (Head of Design posting)

Roles: Head of Card Product

Requirements mention: card program · mobile payments · secure element

Inference: a card program would extend the existing crypto payments flow to card merchants. Only one posting points to this, so no next step is drawn.

Exchange, wallet and partner integrations strong signal

Today: connects 300+ exchanges and wallets to companies like PayPal, Revolut, and Kalshi (Head of Off-Chain Engineering posting)

Roles: Head of Off-Chain Engineering · Head of Forward Deployed Engineering · Senior Product Manager, Onchain

Requirements mention: Exchange and fiat integrations · integration platform · payments integration · Centralized Exchanges (CEXs) · Web3 Wallets

Inference: an off-chain integration platform lead, engineers embedded with partners and a PM tasked with expanding CEX and wallet integrations suggest that broadening integration coverage is the main engineering priority.

Japan market build-out with a compliance program strong signal

Today: a compliance program and policies for its crypto payments infrastructure business operating in Japan (Compliance Officer, Japan posting)

Roles: Compliance Officer, Japan · Director, Japan Business Development and Responsible Director

Requirements mention: AML/CFT · financial license applications · Japanese corporate governance · relationships with exchanges, PSPs, banks and fintechs

Inference: both postings opened 2026-09-02 and ask for financial license applications and a responsible director in Tokyo, which suggests licensed operations in Japan are next.

Licensing and privacy legal work for US operations moderate signal

Today: combining a powerful orchestration engine with a seamless consumer app (Senior Compliance Director posting)

Roles: Senior Compliance Director · Senior Product & Privacy Counsel

Requirements mention: Money Transmitter License (MTL) approvals · licensing frameworks · CIPP/US or CIPP/E · Safeguards Rule

Inference: the requirement for MTL approvals suggests US money transmitter licensing work is under way.

Agentic commerce weak signal

Today: running experiments on live payment rails (Founding Product Manager, Agentic Commerce posting)

Roles: Founding Product Manager, Agentic Commerce

Requirements mention: run experiments on live payment rails · emerging protocols · size the bet

Inference: this is an early-stage exploration of AI agents making payments. Only one posting points to it, so no next step is drawn.

Technical pre-sales and onboarding support for API customers moderate signal

Today: making crypto payments reliable, useful, and ubiquitous, combining a powerful orchestration engine with a seamless consumer app (Solutions Architect posting)

Roles: Solutions Architect · Solutions Engineer

Requirements mention: technical deep dives · API/SDK · demo software · implementation guides

Inference: customer-facing technical roles for API integrations are being added in Customer Success. Both are US remote.

19 open roles (Engineering 4, Product 4, Legal 3, Customer Success 2, Business Development 2, and one each in Exec, Sales, Operations and IT/Security), weighted toward engineering, product and legal/compliance and toward head-of and director-level hires; 3 opened in the last 30 days against 5 in the prior 30, with none closed.

Who they need

Seniority: Senior 6, director 4, mid-level 4, manager 2, VP 2, staff 1.

Skills named most: orchestration engine, APIs, Kubernetes, Python, Amplitude, KYC, AML, stablecoins, digital assets, Gong, Mandarin proficiency, Japanese

Locations: 10 of 19 roles are in San Francisco and/or New York. The others are Tokyo, Japan (2), Bangalore, India (1) and 6 remote roles: United States remote (3), LATAM remote (1), APAC remote (1) and EU remote (1).

How to use this

If you're applying: Check the Japan and compliance roles first: they list specific licensing and language requirements. Customer-facing remote roles are open to US-based candidates with API experience.

If you're selling or recruiting: Ten of 19 roles are in San Francisco and/or New York, and Tokyo is the main location outside the US. The Japan roles and the exchange and wallet integration hiring are the strongest build signals. A Head of Corporate Development and a Chief of Staff both list M&A. Outside the US there is one remote sales role in LATAM and one remote BD role in APAC, both open for several months. New postings slowed to 3 in the last 30 days from 5 in the prior 30.
