Full-stack payments infrastructure for growing APAC businesses. Backed by Y Combinator.
About the role
This is one of the first 1–2 US Account Executives. You are a corridor field seller, not a generic SMB AE. You live in the market you sell: Los Angeles / San Gabriel Valley (Koreatown + City of Industry) first, or New York metro / New Jersey (Flushing, Edison). You sit with owner-operators — Chinese import wholesale, Korean grocery, ethnic specialty retail — and replace the unbundled stack they run today (collect here, wire there).
What they're looking for
- Prospect in your corridor: store visits, association halls, bilingual ISOs, and warm intros from HitPay merchants in Asia who already sell to these owners
- Demo the one account: collect in the US (including account-to-account / FedNow QR) and pay suppliers in Asia — not a POS plus a separate bank wire
- Close owner-operators and stay accountable until they are live and transacting on both sides of the corridor
- Carry a number. Keep the CRM honest
- Feed the field back to product. What grocers and importers actually need shapes what we ship next
- 3+ years selling to owner-operators in ethnic merchant acquiring, grocery POS, import-wholesale field, or a community-bank merchant desk
More about this role
ABOUT HITPAY
HitPay is the payments and business operations platform for SMEs across Asia Pacific — cards, e-wallets, bank transfers, PayNow, QR, invoicing, POS, and payouts in one onboarding flow, one dashboard, and one API. Founded in Singapore (YC S21), we are licensed or registered across six markets and backed by Y Combinator, Tiger Global, Global Founders Capital, and HOF Capital.
More than 15,000 SMEs use HitPay. We have saved merchants over US$35M in fees (Trustpilot 4.4/5). The core business is Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, Hong Kong, and Australia. The United States is the next corridor we are building in public.
For US merchants, one HitPay account does both sides of that corridor: collect from customers in America, and pay suppliers in Asia — one place instead of a POS, a bank, and a wire.
