More than 675,000 businesses, including McLaren Racing, Qantas, SHEIN, and TikTok, use us, directly or through our platform partners, to run their financial operations or build and monetize financial products of their own.\nWe started in Melbourne in 2015 to build the infrastructure global commerce runs on. We're the regulated backbone behind global payments: not by accident, but by design. A decade plus, 85+ licenses, and a financial infrastructure spanning North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific.\nWe're co-headquartered in San Francisco and Singapore, with more than 2,300 people across 27 offices. We hire builders with founder-level energy, people who move fast with good judgment, dig in with real curiosity, and make calls from first principles rather than waiting to be told what to do. Read ouroperating principles to see it in full.\nWhat you’ll do\nReporting directly to the CFO, you will shape the future of Airwallex’s Finance team. This is a high-impact role at the intersection of strategy, technology, and execution.\n\nYou will define and deliver the future of Airwallex’s global Finance function. Acting as the architect of the Finance systems landscape, you will diagnose gaps today, design the target state and build the solutions that get us there.\n\nYou can see how processes, data, and platforms fit together; you can weigh build-versus-buy choices; and you can align stakeholders around a clear transformation journey.\n\nResponsibilities\nEmbed deeply with the global Finance teams, understanding their needs to identify the highest impact use cases\n\nDefine and own the end-to-end AI transformation roadmap for Finance\n\nOwn technical delivery from prototype to production\n\nCodify working patterns into building blocks that others can use\n\nLead change management and upskilling initiatives to enable adoption of new tools\n\nTrack, measure and communicate the outcomes of your work, ensuring accountability\n\nWho you are\nWe are looking for high-agency Builders.

You care about user experience, business impact, and why a product is being built, not just the code itself.\n\nComfort with Ambiguity: You enjoy working in spaces where requirements aren't fully defined yet, and you can independently map out technical specs from high-level direction.\n\nPragmatic Problem Solver: You are resourceful, self-directed, and focused on delivering outcomes, finding efficient ways to work through technical or institutional blockers.\n\nClear Communication: Ability to discuss deep technical trade-offs with core infrastructure teams and present clear, simplified product outcomes to executive stakeholders.\n\nPreferred qualifications\nStrong academic credentials from a top-tier university.\n\nExperience in top-tier management consulting, systems integration, or digital transformation leadership roles\n\nHands-on experience with finance systems (e.g. SAP, Oracle, Netsuite) and automation/AI tools (e.g. ML-based reconciliation, workflow platforms)\n\nFamiliarity with data architecture, analytics, and business intelligence to support decision-making and measure impact\n\nExperience building software that leverages Generative AI, LLMs, or automated agent workflows.\n\nExperience in fintech, payments, multi-currency ledgering, or regulated financial systems.\n\nPrior experience as a founder, founding engineer or early employee\n\nApplicant Safety Policy: Fraud and Third-Party Recruiters\nTo protect you from recruitment scams, please be aware that Airwallex will not ask for bank details, sensitive ID numbers (i.e. passport), or any form of payment during the application or interview process.
