Are you passionate about solving complex challenges in the fintech space? We’re looking for talented individuals to join our dynamic startup, backed by Sequoia Capital. We’re building the universal payment layer to unify all currencies—fiat and crypto—so businesses and consumers can transact seamlessly. If you're passionate about creating innovative solutions in a dynamic, fast-paced environment, we want to talk to you.

Are you excited about building products at the intersection of fintech and AI? We’re looking for an AI-native Fullstack Engineer to join Breeze, a Sequoia-backed startup building the universal payment layer to unify all currencies — fiat and crypto — so businesses and consumers can transact seamlessly.

In this role, you’ll work across the stack to design, build, and ship AI-powered, product-facing experiences end to end. You’ll partner closely with Product, Design, and Operations to turn complex financial workflows into intuitive, intelligent systems. This is a hands-on, product-centric role where engineering decisions — including how we apply AI — directly shape what our customers use every day.

This position is hybrid in NYC, with regular in-office collaboration. This hire will be one of our first NYC-based engineers.
