Job description

About Alpheya

We are a B2B WealthTech startup based in Abu Dhabi and backed by BNY Mellon (America's oldest bank and first company to list on NYSE) and Lunate (a new $100B AUM alternative asset management firm based in Abu Dhabi, UAE). The company has raised $300M to build a state of the art wealth technology platform.

Our mission is to power and grow our clients' Wealth franchises through differentiated experiences, financial solutions, and insights. Our digital wealth management platform will enable banks and other financial institutions in the Middle East to grow and further penetrate affluent, HNW and UHNW investor segments.

While still leveraging the capabilities and knowledge of large organizations, our fintech is a startup with truly cross-functional and agile teams.

This is an opportunity to be part of an exciting opportunity right from its inception, as we look to build our organization, design, and build the product and go-live with the first client in the next 12 months.
