About Formance

One programmable ledger for payments, treasury and reconciliation: model any money movement in Numscript, connect every rail, and close your books continuously. Backed by Y Combinator.

About the role

Formance is a $21M Series A company backed by PayPal Ventures, building the financial infrastructure that powers the next generation of fintechs, banks, and digital platforms — already trusted by Coinbase, Fireblocks, and leading financial platforms across the US and Europe. Our first Founding AEs in New York set a strong bar — hitting quota well above target and landing some of our biggest deals to date within months of starting. We're looking for the next person ready to build on that momentum.

What they're looking for

  • 4+ years in B2B tech sales, selling into fintech, payments, banking, or crypto — you've closed complex deals with technical buyers, not just managed accounts
  • US market experience: you know how enterprise and mid-market deals actually move here — procurement cycles, legal constraints, stakeholder dynamics
  • Comfortable using AI tools like Claude as part of your daily workflow — for research, prep, and follow-up — rather than relying purely on manual process
  • Comfort being early — the playbook is still being written, resources are focused, and your judgment matters more than your ability to follow a process
