About Nium

Nium is the leading global infrastructure for real-time cross-border payments. We were founded on the mission to deliver the global payments infrastructure of tomorrow, today. Our platform enables banks, Fintechs, and global businesses to move money instantly, everywhere.

Co-headquartered in San Francisco and Singapore with offices in 14 markets worldwide, we are entering one of the most exciting chapters in our journey. In July 2025, we delivered the largest month in our 10-year history with record revenue, record volumes, and EBITDA profitability. Today, Nium moves nearly $50B in payments annually, almost entirely for enterprises, while continuing to strengthen an already healthy balance sheet.  
 
It is an incredible time to join us, and we are only just getting started.  
 
Our payout network spans 190+ countries and 100 currencies, with 100 corridors in real time. We power seamless transfers to accounts, wallets, and cards, support local collections in 35 markets, and run a card issuance business live in 34 countries. Backed by regulatory licenses in more than 40 markets, we make it simple for our partners to onboard, integrate, and scale globally. This scale and innovation have earned us recognition as one of CNBC’s World’s Top Fintech Companies 2025, winner of Best Cross-Border Payments Solution at the PayTech Awards, and inclusion in FXC Intelligence’s Top 100 Cross-Border Payments Companies list.  
 
In 2024, we raised US$50 million in Series E funding at a US$1.4 billion valuation to accelerate network expansion, product innovation, and talent growth. With the B2B payments market projected to hit US$175 trillion by 2030, Nium offers ambitious builders the chance to shape the future of global money movement with the scale of a leader and the energy of a high-growth company.  
 

About The Team

The Growth and Customer Experience team in our San Francisco office builds and owns the GoTo market strategy for various products that take Nium’s market offerings forward using our core banking infrastructure rails.  New initiatives include partner integrations for stablecoins, growth in FX and payroll segment verticals, hosted onboarding and taxes for talent marketplaces and seamless Direct Debit support for PayIns. 
 
The team has rolled out properties like the Nium Client Portal, the central self-service web platform for accessing Nium’s global payments infrastructure and seeks to expand our offerings further for supporting our Hypergrowth phase.

- Create and manage virtual accounts  
- Send real-time cross-border payouts  
- Issue cards and track balances  
- View transactions, FX rates, and reporting dashboards 
- Monitor compliance, onboarding, and KYC/KYB workflows  
  
Our users include Fintech developers integrating APIs, as well as operations teams managing high-volume financial workflows. We focus on delivering seamless user experiences and building products that balance self-serve simplicity with deep operational power.  
 
Our goal is to turn complex payment infrastructure into a product experience that is intuitive, scalable, and flexible. As we expand into new markets and product lines, we are investing heavily in frontend engineering, Fullstack capabilities, and product velocity to better serve our customers.
