About this role

ABOUT AIRWALLEX

Airwallex is the AI-native financial operating system for a real-time, intelligent economy. More than 675,000 businesses, including McLaren Racing, Qantas, SHEIN, and TikTok, use us, directly or through our platform partners, to run their financial operations or build and monetize financial products of their own.

We started in Melbourne in 2015 to build the infrastructure global commerce runs on. We're the regulated backbone behind global payments: not by accident, but by design. A decade plus, 85+ licenses, and a financial infrastructure spanning North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific.

We're co-headquartered in San Francisco and Singapore, with more than 2,700 people across 27 offices. We hire builders with founder-level energy, people who move fast with good judgment, dig in with real curiosity, and make calls from first principles rather than waiting to be told what to do.

ABOUT THE TEAM

The Startups team at Airwallex partners with the most promising venture-backed companies across Asia to provide seamless access to our global financial infrastructure — empowering them to scale without borders. We sit at the intersection of fintech product, venture capital networks, and founder communities, taking a hands-on, consultative approach to helping startups professionalise their cross-border financial operations from their earliest institutional funding round through to growth stage and beyond.

Our motion is equal parts commercial and ecosystem. We build deep relationships with top-tier VCs, co-host events with accelerators and ecosystem partners, and embed ourselves in the startup communities across Singapore and the broader region. We are a tight, high-conviction team seeking to seed and grow lasting relationships with the companies that will define the next decade of innovation in Asia.
