MoonPay is building the operating system for value movement—enabling crypto, stablecoins, tokenized assets, and emerging financial primitives. The company serves 30M+ customers and 500+ ecosystem partners across regulated markets in the US, UK, EU, Canada, and Australia.
As a Staff Software Engineer on the Identity Platform team, you will own the design and implementation of critical identity infrastructure that underpins MoonPay's fund, tokenize, trade, and spend offerings. This is a high-impact, high-ownership role where you'll work on hard problems at scale, collaborating with a team that values outcomes over process and impact over titles.
You'll be expected to:
- Design and build scalable, secure identity systems serving millions of users
- Lead technical decisions and mentor engineers on the team
- Collaborate across product, compliance, and infrastructure teams to solve complex problems
- Leverage AI tools as a default operating mode to maximize impact
- Drive architectural improvements and own end-to-end delivery of major initiatives
MoonPay is a high-standards, high-velocity organization. The bar is high, the pace is real, and you'll thrive if you're motivated by hard problems, real ownership, and winning alongside teammates who love building together.
