Senior Technical Talent Partner

Cape Town, South Africa

 

About us:

BVNK provides modern payments infrastructure for businesses. We unify banks and blockchains in a single platform. With BVNK, businesses can send and receive stablecoin payments, convert between currencies and add stablecoin payments to their checkout. Using our flexible platform, and robust global licensing and compliance expertise, innovators can launch new payments products quickly and compliantly.

We are a diverse team spread across the UK, USA, Europe and Africa. We share the belief that blockchain technology presents a new base layer for global payments, where funds can move as freely as data moves on the internet. 

We're incredibly honored to have made Newsweek's list of Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces for two consecutive years (2023 and 2024) and to have been recognised by LinkedIn as one of the Top 20 Startups in the UK in 2024.
