Developer Relations and Ecosystem Senior Manager, UK

Circle is a financial technology company at the epicenter of the emerging internet of money, where value can finally travel like other digital data — globally, nearly instantly and less expensively than legacy settlement systems. This ground-breaking new internet layer opens up previously unimaginable possibilities for payments, commerce and markets that can help raise global economic prosperity and enhance inclusion. Our infrastructure – including USDC, a blockchain-based dollar – helps businesses, institutions and developers harness these breakthroughs and capitalize on this major turning point in the evolution of money and technology.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with specific strength in elegantly communicating technically complicated topics
• Ownership mentality; you are the sole owner of your vision and initiatives and will do what is required to ensure success
