The company combines an orchestration engine with a consumer app to unlock liquidity globally, backed by leading investors including SBI, Money Forward, Paradigm, Dragonfly, Galaxy, and PayPal Ventures.
As a Senior Backend Engineer, you will design, develop, and maintain innovative backend services and APIs that power Mesh's crypto-first payment platform. You'll work closely with Engineering and Product teams distributed across North America, Europe, and India.
