At Fern, we believe people deserve to own their money and transact with it freely. We’re building a set of first-of-their-kind products, powered by crypto, to enable that future.
We're building Fern API and Fern for Business. Fern API powers seamless and global currency conversions across fiat and crypto, and is powering several crypto payments companies in the US and abroad. Fern for Business is an onchain bank account that has seen tens of millions in transaction volume and exponentially growing revenue. We’ve gotten this far with a tiny team! We’re excited to scale our team as we enter the next phases of company growth.

You'll be a key contributor across our entire technology stack, designing, building, and evolving features for Fern for Business and Fern API. This role requires a generalist mindset, someone comfortable diving into user interface development, connecting complex systems, building robust backend services, and even contributing to our underlying infrastructure. If you thrive on bridging the gap between user needs and technical implementation, enjoy experimenting with new and innovative solutions, and are excited to build products that could redefine financial interactions, we’d love to meet you.
