MoonPay hires senior ML roles
MoonPay posted multiple open roles including Senior Machine Learning Engineer alongside positions in security and finance, with listings across New York, Spain, the UK and remote/hybrid options. The hiring push targets crypto and fintech talent in those regions. (x.com)
MoonPay is adding senior machine learning, security and finance hires as it expands recruiting across the United States, Spain, Portugal and the United Kingdom. (jobs.lever.co, jobs.lever.co, jobs.lever.co) A current Senior Machine Learning Engineer listing says the role is remote from Portugal, Spain or the United States East Coast time zone, with pay of $191,737 to $235,214 in the United States. The posting says the first assignment is on financial crime products, with a broader mandate to lead machine learning and artificial intelligence adoption across the company. (jobs.lever.co) MoonPay’s other open roles point to the same pattern. A Treasury Manager job is listed for New York hybrid or United States remote, while a Senior Application Security Engineer role is open across the United Kingdom, United States, Poland, Spain and Portugal as a remote job. (jobs.lever.co, jobs.lever.co) The machine learning role is tied to fraud checks and customer behavior analysis, two core functions for a crypto payments company that has to screen transactions in real time. MoonPay says its platform includes compliance, identity checks, fraud prevention and settlement in one system. (jobs.lever.co) That hiring comes as MoonPay describes itself as a larger regulated payments business, not only a retail crypto app. On its site, the company says it serves nearly 30 million customers and powers infrastructure for nearly 500 companies. (moonpay.com) MoonPay also says it is fully licensed in the United States and regulated in the United Kingdom, European Union, Canada and Australia. Its legal page lists money transmitter and virtual currency approvals across U.S. jurisdictions, including New York State Department of Financial Services oversight for MoonPay USA LLC. (moonpay.com, moonpay.com) The company’s hiring language shows where it expects that growth to land operationally. The careers page says MoonPay wants to make crypto accessible to more than 1 billion people by 2030, and the engineering posting says teams are organized in squads of four to six engineers with a product manager and product data analyst. (moonpay.com, jobs.lever.co) MoonPay is not the only crypto company hiring for artificial intelligence work, but its open roles show a specific emphasis on risk, compliance and treasury rather than consumer marketing. The postings suggest the next phase of hiring is aimed at the plumbing behind crypto payments, where fraud controls and regulatory reporting are as important as checkout growth.
