About Us
OpenFX is on a mission to move money as freely as data, unrestricted by time zones, banking hours, or legacy systems. We are building the infrastructure that will power the next generation of cross-border payment systems for institutions. The team's execution has been exceptional, and we're scaling at a remarkable pace. Our stellar early team comes with experience in companies like J.P. Morgan, Goldman Sachs, FalconX, PayPal, Affirm, Polygon, Kraken, Nium & others. We're backed by Accel, Lightspeed, NfX and other top-tier investors.
Role Overview
We're hiring a Staff Software Engineer for our Banking team. This is the senior-most individual contributor role on the systems at the core of how OpenFX holds, moves, and accounts for money- ledgers, payouts, reconciliation, and settlement. It is a hands-on technical leadership role where correctness is non-negotiable and the cost of a defect is measured in real money.
You will report to an Engineering Manager and work closely with engineers, product, and other functions across the company.



You will set the technical direction for the banking core, lead the hardest money-path problems, and raise the bar for how we build.
This role requires someone who has built and operated financial or other correctness-critical systems in production. If your experience is limited to systems where occasional data inconsistency is acceptable, or where you have not owned something end to end for a meaningful stretch, this will be a stretch.
Key Responsibilities
Own the technical direction for the banking core: ledgers, payouts, reconciliation, and settlement.
Lead architecture reviews for recent financial systems and high-risk changes where correctness and auditability matter most.
Define and maintain the standards for money-handling code — idempotency, consistency guarantees, audit trails, and safe data migrations.
Design and build shared banking foundations, and reduce the systemic technical debt that slows other teams down.
