You will also be part of the broader Payments Operations team, which operates multiple ramps across Latin America — from ARS and BRL to COP and MXN — all working together to guarantee seamless, secure, and world-class payments. Ultimately, you are embedded in the wider Operations division at Bitso, a diverse and multicultural community spanning fraud prevention, money movement, payments operations, customer support, risk, and strategic alliances. Operations is not just about running systems — it is Bitso’s backbone: safeguarding assets, enabling seamless flows, protecting users, and powering the partnerships that drive financial innovation and inclusion. ## Why This Role Matters Crypto operations are one of the backbones of Bitso’s mission. In this role, you are not simply managing workflows — you are architecting the systems, inspiring the team, and commanding the projects that will define how crypto operations scale, protect assets, and power innovation across the industry. You will be the one who ensures that every transaction is not just executed, but trusted; that every product is not just launched, but sustained; and that every challenge is not just solved, but transformed into a foundation for the future.
