About the Job
Our Experiments team builds growth engines for Xendit through experimental products. We do this by pushing the frontiers of what is possible in the industry and creating modern solutions to old problems. As part of the Experiments team, you may become part of a team that builds from 0 to 1, from 1 to 1,000, or from 1,000 to the moon. It requires flexibility and adaptability to take on new challenges in order to grow an early-stage product.
To build from the ground up, we take ideas, customer pain points, or gaps in the market, push out an MVP at speed and iterate to find product-market fit. This team presents a unique opportunity for people who are looking to build something new, rather than scaling mature products. People who join this team have a strong interest in growth (personally and professionally) and, therefore, a continuous improvement mindset.
We're looking for a passionate individual who is willing to do whatever it takes to help us build credit models for innovative products that our local market has not seen before.
