About Paxos

Paxos is on a mission to enable the movement of any asset, any time, in a trustworthy way. Today’s financial infrastructure is archaic, expensive, inefficient and risky – supporting a system that leaves out more people than it lets in. So we’re rebuilding it.

As a regulated blockchain infrastructure company, we use technology to tokenize, custody, trade, and settle assets for enterprise clients like PayPal, Novi, Bank of America, and Interactive Brokers. Paxos is a top-funded blockchain company, with more than $500 million in total funding from leading investors like OakHC/FT, Founders Fund, PayPal Ventures, and Declaration Partners. Together, we empower today’s financial leaders to build a more open, trusted economy.

What you will do:
  • You will build a nimble infrastructure where we can support an expanding innovative product base.  Additionally, we’re seeking someone who can execute all workflows for speed and accurate delivery while participating in strategic reengineering, audit, risk, and new business initiatives.
  • You will actively engage with users and provide scaled support to resolve their issues, identify user trends, and work with cross-functional partners to resolve issues using technology and automation.
  • You will actively partner cross-functionally with stakeholders of the engineering, and other cross functional partners to build scale and promote risk mitigation policy.
  • You will drive delivery of operational milestones and strategic initiatives set by Operations Management at the company-wide level by ensuring rigor through best-in-class project management practices and by applying critical thinking to each business decision
  • You will manage business operations to ensure fiat currency and crypto assets are deposited, custodied, and withdrawn seamlessly, and issues are detected and resolved promptly. This includes some after hours work, weekend work, and office visits.
What you need to have:
  • You have 1-4 years of experience
  • You have strong Excel skills and ability to recognize and analyze trends in data is a plus
  • You have strong attention to detail and passion for solving problems
  • You have the ability to thrive in ambiguity with organization and asking the right questions
  • You have the ability to multi-task and prioritize in a fast-paced environment.
  • You have comfort working in a tech-driven environment with the ability to coordinate across several stakeholder groups (Engineering, Operations, Compliance, Marketing, People, Strategic Initiatives-Office of the CEO)
  • You have strong written and verbal communication skills
  • You have strong project management orientation with the ability to communicate issues/concerns before they become fires and facilitate the right stakeholders in a discussion to solve for them
  • Requirement to be able to commute into Paxos’ NYC office frequently

Other than these qualifications, we’re hoping to bring someone on board who loves what they do and can’t wait to join an amazing team.
