Job Description

Airwallex, a leading financial technology platform valued at US$6.2 billion, is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join their Financial Markets team's Stablecoin Platform initiative. This role focuses on building stablecoin infrastructure that will enable customers and internal systems to handle tokenized currency globally. The position involves creating systems for near-instant global payments, on-chain liquidity, and seamless fiat-to-stablecoin conversions.

The ideal candidate will be responsible for architecting and building robust systems that handle blockchain integration, digital asset custody, and global payments infrastructure. This role requires deep expertise in secure system design, particularly around private key handling, signing, and encryption. The position offers an opportunity to work with a team of 1,700+ professionals across 26 global offices, backed by world-class investors including Visa, Sequoia, and DST Global.

The role combines traditional backend engineering with blockchain technology, requiring both strong software engineering fundamentals and specialized knowledge in cryptocurrency infrastructure. You'll be working on core systems that will be integrated into Airwallex's existing financial infrastructure, making stablecoins function as seamlessly as fiat currencies across their global platform.

Working at Airwallex offers significant growth opportunities, competitive compensation including equity, and the chance to be part of a team that's reshaping global financial services. The company provides comprehensive benefits and promotes an inclusive work environment, valuing diversity and merit-based hiring practices.
