Business Operations

About Paxos 

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.

We’re on a mission to open the world’s financial system to everyone by enabling the instant movement of any asset, any time, in a trustworthy way. For over a decade, we’ve built blockchain infrastructure that tokenizes, custodies, trades and settles assets for the world’s leading financial institutions, like Mastercard, Visa, Robinhood, and PayPal. 

About the Team

Business Operations at Paxos will be a small, high-impact team that works directly with leadership on the company’s most important priorities to drive and enable growth of the business. As the first hire in BizOps, you will help define the role of the function. BizOps will partner with teams across the business to lead mission critical, cross-functional efforts, deliver objective analysis and insights, and incubate new roles or functions as the business scales. You may dig into winning new market segments, design new business systems and processes to scale Paxos, help us build and launch new products, or unlock new revenue opportunities. Whatever it is, we work on what will move the needle most for Paxos. The focus is on results, not activity, and to have fun doing it. If you like hard problems, are analytical, and are an amazing teammate, we want to hear from you. You will be setting the tone for how Paxos solves ambiguous hard problems.

What you’ll do 

• Partner with senior leaders to define strategy or execute against important trajectory-bending initiatives such as new product launches, market entry, or strategic partnerships.
• Help identify and implement new opportunities that grow and increase the efficiency of the business. 
• Lead analytical deep dives on growth drivers, unit economics, and customer behavior to guide decision-making.
• Diagnose bottlenecks in operations (e.g. onboarding, support, etc) and design scalable solutions.
• Act as a “go-to” problem solver for unstructured, high-priority questions. Perform the analyses and research that help us make the right decisions for Paxos.
• Support with operating cadences such as OKRs, business reviews, and quarterly planning.
• Incubate and help run new teams as business needs scales.
• Over time, recruit and mentor additional team members to scale the function.

About you

We’re looking for someone who is analytical, entrepreneurial, and comfortable operating in ambiguity. You might come from consulting, investing, product/strategy/operations roles at a fast-growing (fin)tech company.

• You are deeply curious, analytical (you get a kick out of digging deep into data and reading about minutia), and like to think from first principles. 
• You act like a business owner, thinking across functions and time horizons. You do whatever it takes to execute on complex projects. You want to win. 
• You have a knack for working well with a wide range of people, whether an engineer, a compliance analyst or a senior client at a Fortune50 financial institution.
• You excel in fast-paced, high-growth environments, with a track record of solving unstructured problems and driving clarity where none exists
• Your analytical skills go well beyond excel: you can get your hands dirty with SQL and Python (or are taking a course to learn how to do so)
• You are defaulting to AI, but take pride in your work. You are building agents, vibe-coding apps, and more. 
• You have 4-10 years of work experience

Important Notice for Paxos Applicants

We’ve become aware of fraudulent accounts posting as Paxos recruiters on LinkedIn and other platforms. These scammers attempt to deceive applicants into paying for job opportunities or providing personal financial information. 

To verify a legitimate Paxos recruiter: 

• We only use @paxos.com email addresses
• We never ask for payment or financial details to apply, interview, or work here
• For technical roles, we do not perform a coding interview without prior screening by our engineering team 

Thanks for your interest in Paxos!
