They’re on a mission to become the central hub for managing every aspect of business life.</p><p>But when it comes to financial workflows, there’s still a gap. Too many critical tasks like managing cash flow, tracking payments, or reconciling accounts happen outside the software, across spreadsheets, email threads, banking portals.</p><p>It’s a missed opportunity. Business software shouldn’t just record financial activity — it should run it.</p><p><strong>To learn more about us: </strong><strong><a href="https://www.swan.io/about#about" target="_blank">About Swan</a></strong><strong> ; </strong><strong><a href="https://www.swan.io/about#our-story" target="_blank">Our story</a></strong><strong>.</strong></p><p> </p><p><strong>Job description</strong><br/></p><p>The Payment Group at Swan leverages industry knowledge, payments expertise, and general insight to build and operate the API-based banking products and the platform that power cash collection, cash storage, and money movements for all Swan financial products.</p><p>Ultimately, the group is working toward a future in which all the complexities of handling money are hidden from Swan's partners and end-users—whether that's adopting new payment methods, reconciling various entries (technical, accounting, and cash), integrating with banks and financial partners globally, or addressing regulatory obligations.</p><p>Within this Group, the Payment Product team sits at the intersection of Strategy, Go-To-Market, Compliance, Design, and Tech.
