About Modern Treasury
What is Modern Treasury?
Modern Treasury builds payment-operations infrastructure for companies that move money. Where most SaaS companies move data, Modern Treasury moves money: it offers a single API and set of workflows for ACH, wires, RTP, FedNow, international payouts, reconciliation, and ledgering, with built-in compliance and reporting. In the company's own words, it set out "to be the most trusted infrastructure for money movement" — helping businesses move and track funds "faster, easier, and more transparently" over their choice of rails.
The platform now spans both fiat and stablecoins behind one API, positioned for a moment when, as the company puts it, "the market demands a platform that can speak both languages." More than $750 trillion moves across bank rails each year, and Modern Treasury serves companies in the economy's most important sectors — from real estate, healthcare, and insurance to education and financial services. It was founded in 2018 by Dimitri, Matt, and Sam.
Where will I work?
Modern Treasury runs two offices — San Francisco (77 Geary St) and New York (184 Fifth Ave) — and is remote-friendly across the US. Engineering roles are posted in San Francisco and Remote on the company's Ashby board, so the model blends in-person hubs with distributed work depending on the team.
What is the Modern Treasury team like?
Modern Treasury describes itself as "a team of principled operators solving some of the hardest problems in money movement," working for customers who "power the most important sectors of the economy." The culture emphasises moving fast, thinking deeply, and an environment "built on trust, curiosity, and constructive feedback." Engineering is high-autonomy: the team ships frequently on a stack of Ruby on Rails, Postgres, Redis, and ParadeDB deployed to AWS, and engineers "can easily contribute to all layers and components of the application without friction." Reliability is paramount — systems "must scale to high volumes, with high accuracy and high reliability."
Work-Life Balance
Modern Treasury offers Unlimited PTO, listed plainly on its careers page. Family support is a clear priority: the company provides 16 weeks of paid parental leave plus family-planning resources through Carrot. A home-office stipend supports remote and hybrid work, and a books-and-learning stipend backs continued growth.
