About OpenFX
OpenFX is on a mission to become the global backbone for cross-border FX transactions. We are building the infrastructure to power the next generation of cross-border payment systems for institutions. The team's execution has been exceptional, and we're scaling remarkably. We're backed by Accel, Atomico, M13, Northzone, NFX, Pantara and other top-tier investors.
The Role
We're hiring a Head of People Operations & Talent to build and scale the people function at OpenFX. This is a builder role, not a maintenance role. We have a lean people team today and are investing to build it out significantly. You would be responsible for designing, standing up, and operationalizing the core people infrastructure — from recruiting systems to onboarding programs to performance frameworks — as we scale across multiple geographies.
You would own both talent acquisition and people operations across all of our geographies. That means recruiting infrastructure, onboarding, offboarding, employment compliance, benefits administration, performance frameworks, and employee relations. You would report to the COO and work closely with every functional leader in the company.
We are being direct about this because we've learned the hard way that ambiguity about the scope of this role doesn't serve anyone. This is a broad role. It covers both recruiting and people ops. If you're looking for a pure TA role or a pure HR generalist role, this isn't it. If you're excited about building a global people function at a company that's scaling quickly through regulated markets, keep reading.
What You Would Do in the First 90 Days
Month 1: Audit the current state of people operations and talent acquisition across all geographies. Understand the hiring plan, meet every functional leader, assess agency relationships, and identify the highest-leverage gaps. Get familiar with our employment setup in each jurisdiction (direct employment, PEO/EOR, contractor arrangements).
Month 2: Stand up the foundational systems. This means structured onboarding programs, a recruiting process with consistent interview frameworks and scorecards, and a clear intake system for hiring requests. Begin building internal sourcing capability to reduce agency dependency over time.
Month 3: Start delivering. Fill priority roles, launch the first round of structured onboarding, and present a workforce plan for the remainder of the year aligned to business priorities and budget. Have a clear point of view on what the people function needs to look like at 200 people and what you need to get there.

OpenFX is on a mission to move money as freely as data, unrestricted by time zones, banking hours, or legacy systems. We are building the infrastructure that will power the next generation of cross-border payment systems for institutions. Our early team includes operators from J.P. Morgan, Goldman Sachs, FalconX, PayPal, Affirm, Polygon, Kraken, Nium and more. We’re backed by Accel, Lightspeed, NFX, and other top-tier investors.
The Problem You’ll Solve
OpenFX can already move money cross-border. But without a world-class collections (Pay-In) layer, we’re missing the front door of the funds flow. Building this unlocks a new category of clients (global platforms, marketplaces, remitters, enterprises) and makes OpenFX materially stickier: once customers collect through us, their entire flow runs on our rails.
Most global businesses still collect money like it’s 2008: opening local bank accounts country-by-country, reconciling fragmented bank statements, and wiring funds back to HQ with delays, hidden fees, and constant operational breakage. If you have hundreds of thousands of customers across countries, “collections” becomes a full-time organisation, just to get paid and understand who paid you.
You'll build the product that fixes this. By owning Pay-Ins end-to-end, from local fiat rails and virtual accounts to fiat→stablecoin routing, to reconciliation that finance teams can close books with, you'll unlock a new category of customers (global platforms, marketplaces, remitters, enterprises) and make OpenFX the default operating system for their global treasury.
What you’ll own
You'll be the directly responsible individual for the Pay-Ins charter, from strategy through execution. Ownership isn't about shipping features, it's about delivering outcomes. This means:
Launch Pay-In v1 across priority rails
Smart Order Routing automation
Payment tracking + reconciliation that scales globally
What success looks like
12 months in, you’ll know you’re succeeding if:
Your first 90 days (what you’ll do)
Month 1: Discover and choose the wedge
Month 2: Align & Plan
Month 3-6: Build & Execute
Requirements
Non-negotiable
Preferred (helps you ramp faster)
Not required
Why This Opportunity Is Rare
If you want to build the collections layer that makes global money movement actually work, at scale, apply.
