Paxos is building the open financial system.
The Role

About Paxos 

Today’s financial infrastructure is archaic, expensive, inefficient and risky — supporting a system that leaves out more people than it lets in. So we’re rebuilding it.

We’re on a mission to open the world’s financial system to everyone by enabling the instant movement of any asset, any time, in a trustworthy way. For over a decade, we’ve built blockchain infrastructure that tokenizes, custodies, trades and settles assets for the world’s leading financial institutions, like PayPal, Venmo, Mastercard and Interactive Brokers. 

About the team 

The accounting team provides in-depth guidance to the rest of the organization on financial results, delivering essential insights that influence key decisions—from daily operations to long-term strategies. The team is responsible for solving complex financial questions in an evolving environment with new regulations, technologies and financial challenges. Their efforts help Paxos drive innovation, expand market reach and ultimately achieve Paxos’ mission of building a more open and inclusive financial system.

You'll collaborate with cross-functional teams, including strategic finance, treasury and operations to provide valuable insight. This role is critical to Paxos’  success, ensuring that all reporting timelines are met and financial information is accurate, enabling informed decisions that drive growth and profitability.
