Blockchain Jobs

WalletConnect and Reown equip builders with the tools to create seamless, secure, and intuitive digital ownership experiences. Since its origins as a simple QR code in 2018, WalletConnect has grown into a comprehensive network serving 75,000+ apps, 700+ wallets, and over 50 million users.

Together with the Reown SDK, we provide cutting-edge infrastructure that powers next-generation app and wallet experiences across Web3 — enabling frictionless movement of value.

Following the successful launch of WalletConnect Pay, we're expanding into solutions that allow payments companies to leverage blockchain to enhance their customer experiences — from payouts and checkouts to point-of-sale, deposits, and funding flows.

The Role

We're seeking an experienced Payments Manager (US) to accelerate adoption of our payments stack among leading payment service providers (PSPs), fintechs, and enterprise partners across US.

This is a strategic, market-facing role at the intersection of traditional payments and onchain infrastructure. You'll be responsible for building relationships with key ecosystem players, shaping our go-to-market strategy, and helping define the next generation of digital payment experiences powered by WalletConnect.

Working closely with our BD, Product, Engineering, and Marketing teams, you'll help bridge fiat and onchain commerce, ensuring WalletConnect and Reown remain the go-to solutions for global payments innovation.

Who This Role Would Suit

This opportunity is ideal for someone currently in the payments or fintech ecosystem — perhaps at a PSP, acquirer, or neobank — who's eager to shape the next chapter of digital payments innovation.

You're excited by the idea of building from the ground up, helping define how traditional payment systems evolve toward blockchain-enabled infrastructure. You enjoy operating in fast-moving, high-ownership environments where your relationships, insight, and execution directly shape product direction and market impact.

If you've ever thought, "I understand payments — but I want to be part of what's next," this is that opportunity.
