Backend Ledger Engineer

We’ve provided millions with faster and cheaper access to cross-border payments, enabled governments and aid agencies to more efficiently distribute funds to thousands, and given millions more true economic choice, enabling them to easily save and spend in USD or EUR. And we’re just getting started. Bridge enables faster, cheaper payments and borderless access to dollars via stablecoins. Through our APIs, businesses can send and receive funds across borders faster / cheaper vs. SWIFT and other fiat-only rails. Our virtual accounts enable international consumers and businesses to easily access, store and spend US dollars. Our payouts infrastructure enables platforms to disburse USD to anyone globally. We believe many trillions of dollars will move and settle through stablecoin payment rails. Bridge is pulling this future forward.
