Cyclops Is Growing: Here's Who We're Looking For

In just four months, the Cyclops team has doubled. We opened our European headquarters in Vienna, closed our Series A and grew across product, compliance, business development and operations. We're just getting started — and expect to double again by the end of the year.

The payments industry is moving fast on stablecoins and Cyclops is at the center of it. We're the only stablecoin infrastructure platform built exclusively for payments companies — orchestrating across the best available providers in the market, across every corridor, so PSPs can get to market faster than building it themselves would ever allow. Every week brings new client conversations, new markets and new product decisions that need the right people to make them happen.

What We're Building

Cyclops is the stablecoin and crypto infrastructure platform built exclusively for payments companies. PSPs, acquirers and processors are the companies moving trillions of dollars annually, and they've spent years trying to adapt generalist tools that weren't built for how they actually operate. Our founders came from inside one of the world's largest payment processors, where they spent four years living that exact problem before founding Cyclops. They learned exactly what payments companies need and where existing solutions fell short. Then built the right one from scratch.

Today we're powering stablecoin settlement, pay-ins and payouts for payments companies that collectively serve hundreds of thousands of merchants worldwide. We are backed by Nava Ventures, F-Prime, Global PayTech Ventures, Castle Island Ventures, Lasagna, Shift4, OpenFX, Coinbase and Circle — giving us the most payments-focused investor base in stablecoin infrastructure. Our Series A gives us the resources to build faster, expand our corridor coverage and grow the team to match the opportunity in front of us.

What It's Like to Work Here

Every person at Cyclops has a real impact on the product, clients and direction of the company. We're a growing team doing work that matters and everyone here feels it.

We use AI intentionally across all areas of business. We're constantly finding ways to build better, move faster and deliver more value, and we expect everyone on the team to bring that energy. At the same time, we take our clients' data seriously. We have strict policies around how AI is used to ensure client information is always protected.

Compliance isn't a department at Cyclops. It's woven into every product decision, client conversation and process we build. That's a non-negotiable part of how we operate.

We take the work seriously and genuinely enjoy the people we do it with. The team offsite in Vienna was a good example: strategy sessions, compliance training, a rooftop launch party and enough karaoke to remind everyone why building with people you respect matters as much as the work itself. Everyone on this team wants to win by providing more value, not cutting corners. High character, ambition and genuine care for doing right by our clients and each other. That combination is harder to find than technical skills and it's what we look for first.

Where We're Hiring

We're growing across product, engineering, compliance, business development and operations. If you have payments industry experience, crypto and stablecoin knowledge or just a genuine passion for what Cyclops is building, we want to hear from you.
