About Plasma
Plasma is building the primary account for global money.
Money used to belong to a country. Increasingly, it belongs to a person or business moving through many countries. People and businesses now earn, spend, save, hire and invest across borders. Traditional banks cannot serve this new world.
Our first product, Plasma One, is a global money account: a place to receive, hold, send funds in seconds, earn yield and spend with a card in the local economy.
Underneath is the Plasma network, built from first principles for stablecoin payments. Stablecoins make dollars faster, cheaper and more reliable to move.
The opportunity is to become where all global money lands first: where income arrives, balances grow, payments move, businesses operate, and new financial products are built.
The Team & Our Story
We are a global team of founders, operators and engineers, obsessed with building the best products. We work at the cutting edge of financial innovation, using stablecoins to create tools for consumers and businesses.
We operate with trust, clarity, and ambition: own your craft, move with urgency, contribute beyond your lane, back your teammates, debate rigorously, and keep raising the bar for what great means.
The Role
We're looking for a hands-on Data Lead to build Plasma 's data function from the ground up. You'll be our first dedicated data hire, working across Consumer, Payments and Business to give the company one trusted view of its users, its money and its operations.
At first you'll build much of the platform yourself: our Snowflake warehouse, the pipelines that feed it and the modelled layer on top. As the function grows, you'll choose the tools, set the standards and hire the team.
The Work
Own Plasma 's data platform end to end: the Snowflake warehouse, ingestion from production systems and third-party providers, and the modelled layer the rest of the company builds on
Define the metrics the company runs on, including funded users, activation, engagement, balances, spend and retention, and make sure every team uses the same definitions Partner with Consumer to understand how users behave across regions, segments and products, and turn that into specific product decisions Design and analyse experiments, and be clear about when a result is real and when it isn't Work with Payments and finance so the business can trust its numbers: reconciliation across ledgers, providers and banking partners, revenue reporting and unit economics Find fraudulent and abusive patterns across onboarding, funding, card spend and transfers, and build the signals and rules that let risk and operations act on them Treat data quality, testing, access control and PII handling as part of the platform, not an afterthought Choose tools deliberately, set standards for the function and hire the team as Plasma scales
The Bar
