Our Mission
Reduce inequity by helping immigrants move money home, and become the leading cross-border fintech for emerging markets.

The Team
-> Founded by Harvard grads / 3rd-time founders --- also founded Segovia (successful exit) and GiveDirectly (>300M revenue, fastest-growing NGO).
-> Top performers from top and varied organizations (e.g., Bain, Bolt, Google, McKinsey, SafeBoda, Uber, Zipline) --- we like moving fast, and we hire people that do as well.
-> Driven by mission, guided by values (see below) – in deed, not just word.
-> Team as global as the mission, >30 languages from 25 countries (i.e., if you’re interested in learning to make Chicken Moambe, we’re the place).

About Us
Taptap Send is backed by top VCs (Spark, Canaan, Reid Hoffman, Breyer Capital, etc.), rapidly growing and a great place for those looking for both impact and a fast-paced tech startup environment. Read more about the journey in Reid Hoffman’s words or TechCrunch article

Launched in 2019, Taptap is tapping into a transformative shift in global finance: from banks to phones. While this has affected wealthier countries as well, it has been nothing short of a revolution for the emerging markets where the overwhelming majority of population had been unable to access digital finance previously. Taptap Send allows immigrants to send money home instantly and with no fee*, saving money in the process. With a formal market size of >700B alone, we’ve got a lot more saving to do for our users. Our mission is to reduce inequity by helping immigrants move money home, and become the leading cross-border fintech for emerging markets. And that’s just the beginning...

*We charge fees for transfers on fixed exchange rate corridors (e.g., XOF, XAF).

The Role

As the Stablecoin Product Lead, you will own the roadmap for our stablecoin initiatives, spanning potential customer-facing products and internal tooling. You will be responsible for defining and delivering innovative solutions that leverage the unique capabilities of stablecoins, including custodial and non-custodial wallets, to bring meaningful value to our customers while remaining compliant with regulatory requirements. Your role will also be pivotal in preparing for and ensuring that our stablecoin infrastructure and tooling are world-class and deliver gains across costs, capital efficiency, and user acquisition.

We are seeking a product leader with deep expertise at the intersection of fintech and digital assets, combining a strong regulatory and compliance background with entrepreneurial drive. You will play a key role in shaping how stablecoins power the next generation of financial products at Taptap Send.

You will have 5-10 years of experience in relevant fields, and in both traditional finance and digital assets. You will be based in London, Dubai, Paris or New York.

Responsibilities

• Own and drive the stablecoin roadmap, balancing strategic direction with future execution.

• Research, design, and potentially launch products that unlock value through stablecoins, in either custodial or non-custodial forms.

• Ensure any stablecoin infrastructure and tooling are industry-leading — robust, compliant, scalable, and fully leveraging blockchain capabilities.

• Manage a tech team and collaborate closely with Legal and Compliance, Operations, and Growth to deliver regulated products that meet the highest standards of risk management and customer protection.

• Stay at the forefront of stablecoin trends, regulatory developments, and blockchain innovations to inform both strategy and product development.

• Represent Taptap Send with partners, regulators, and industry groups as a thought leader in stablecoin product innovation.

Requirements

• 8–10 years of experience in regulated fintech, with at least 3 years in traditional finance, including roles focused on product development under regulatory frameworks.

• Proven track record of developing and delivering products that meet regulatory and compliance standards in financial services.

• 3+ years of experience in digital assets, with exposure to either institutional asset management and trading or consumer-facing blockchain products.

• Strong understanding of blockchain technology, stablecoin mechanics, and custody models (both custodial and non-custodial).

• Demonstrated ability to work cross-functionally with engineering, legal, compliance, and commercial teams.

• Strategic thinker with strong execution skills — comfortable setting direction and rolling up your sleeves to deliver.

• Excellent communication skills with the ability to navigate complex stakeholder environments.

• Passion for financial inclusion and emerging markets is a plus.

This is a unique opportunity to shape a high-impact product area at Taptap Send and lead the evolution of stablecoin-enabled financial solutions. If you are excited to innovate at the frontier of fintech and digital assets, we’d love to hear from you.
