About MoonPay
Hi, we’re MoonPay. We’re here to onboard the world to Web3.
Why? Because we think Web3 is a unique and democratising technology. It gives people back control of their money, digital identity, data, and property like nothing else before it.
What We Do
We’re the leading infrastructure company in Web3. This means we offer our partners everything from payment solutions (we call them 'Ramps') to minting software for digital collectibles, like NFTs. And over 20 million people around the world now trust our products — just take a look on Trustpilot.
We’re also big on collaborations. And we've worked on stunts, drops, and partnerships with some of the world's most prestigious and forward-thinking brands.
But that’s not all. We have also built our own consumer app because we wanted to see if we could build a better Web3 account. It’s taken off in a big way, and we're working hard to continually improve it and to strive for perfection.
So whatever your background, we’re sure there’s something for you here. Come help us build the future of Web3 and digital ownership.
Locations Supported
This role can be performed remotely from the United Kingdom, Poland, South Africa, Spain, Portugal, or Romania.
Unfortunately we do not offer business to business contracting arrangements.

Collaborate closely with Product Managers to develop innovative solutions and implementation strategies for new features and improvements
Participate in estimations, planning, and execution of projects, features, and integrations as a valued contributor
Develop and maintain thoroughly tested, high-quality, and performant code
What you will be working with/on
You will be instrumental in building and maintaining backend, frontend, and mobile applications as part of a collaborative team of developers. You can anticipate regular collaboration with product designers, product managers, data analysts, ML engineers, and other departments, reflecting our strong cross-functional engineering culture. Our current primary tech stack utilizes Typescript with React/React Native (via Expo)
