Forward Deployed Engineer
The Better Money Company (TBMC) is building a stablecoin clearinghouse that connects stablecoin issuers to fintechs, banks, neobanks, and other businesses building with stablecoins. It brings fungibility to stablecoins, enabling redemption-based swaps at par ($1 in = $1 out) with fixed pricing and guaranteed settlement times. TBMC serves payment companies, fintechs, neobanks, and stablecoin issuers who need reliable, compliant infrastructure for stablecoin movement and settlement.

About The Better Money Company
The Better Money Company operates a stablecoin clearinghouse designed to solve the coordination problem of a fragmented, many-to-many stablecoin market by transforming it into a unified network, similar to how ACH functions as a bank clearinghouse. Unlike existing trade-based infrastructure where stablecoins are swapped at market prices with slippage and unpredictable settlement, TBMC's clearinghouse offers redemption-based swaps at par, fixed fees, guaranteed settlement times, and a compliant source of funds sourced from GENIUS-compliant issuer capital or KYB'd clearinghouse clients. For stablecoin issuers, TBMC offers 1:1 fungibility for any stablecoin (including custom ones), settlement in a preferred stablecoin, the ability to send to and from many wallets/assets, and integration with a broad ecosystem of partners through a single endpoint. The company's initial supported stablecoins include USDC, USDG, PYUSD, SBC, CASH, mUSD, frxUSD, and RLUSD, initially on Ethereum and Solana with plans to expand chain coverage. TBMC partners with companies such as Ramp, Modern Treasury, Agora, Turnkey, Brale, LayerZero Labs, Privy, Paxos, Notabene, MoonPay, M0, BitGo, Bastion, alfred, Utila, and Frax, targeting fintechs, neobanks, payment companies, and other businesses building stablecoin payment products.

You'll sit at the boundary between us and our customers, coming in earlier than a typical forward deployed engineer to help define the product surface area we build together with partners. You'll translate customer requests into feedback that shapes the product roadmap, own the full integration lifecycle from scoping through go-live, build shared tooling and SDKs, and jump in to debug production issues across system boundaries when something breaks between us and a partner.
Requirements
- 3+ years of experience building and shipping integrations with payment systems, financial infrastructure, and/or banking partners
- Experience being on the other end of an API and understanding good and bad integration experiences
- Excellent communication skills to translate between engineering-speak and customer-speak
- Comfort operating in ambiguity
- Preferred but not required to have experience building with stablecoins and/or blockchains
Responsibilities
- Own the full integration lifecycle with customers and partners from initial scoping and technical design through implementation, testing, and go-live
- Digest, triage, and scope customer needs into actionable product input that shapes what is built next
- Design and build shared tooling, SDKs, and documentation that make integrating fast and painless
- Debug production issues across system boundaries as first responder
