Job description

Capital markets are undergoing a fundamental shift. Assets that live in fragmented systems and manual workflows are moving onto blockchains, systems designed to move and store value more transparently and efficiently. While this unlocks more open and programmable financial systems, it also introduces significant complexity. For most users, interacting with this new infrastructure is still too difficult. Fun builds the infrastructure that powers consumer-facing fintech applications, handling onboarding, account access, and money movement so users can interact with blockchain-based systems as seamlessly as they do with traditional finance. For fintech builders, Fun provides a best-in-class onboarding and deposit stack that drives conversion and unlocks user growth. We operate at the intersection of financial infrastructure, complex engineering, and product experience.

About The Role

Our clients trust us to power money movement for their end users, and their confidence in that experience is inseparable from their confidence in us. We're looking for a Senior Support Lead who can be trusted with real judgment calls, not just process, and who takes genuine ownership of the day-to-day support experience. You'll be the person the L1 team turns to when something needs a decision and needs it made well, and you'll take real pride in building out the tooling, workflows, and processes that let quality hold as we scale rather than erode. This gives our Head of Customer Success the room to focus on strategy and enterprise relationships, while you own the operational excellence underneath it.

What You’ll Do
  • Own Day-to-Day Support Operations: Lead‑style management of our external support team, including coaching, shift coverage, and triaging what gets escalated upward
  • Run First-Pass Escalation Triage: Take the first pass on issues currently going to engineering. Resolve what's covered by existing process, and elevated only what's genuinely necessary
  • Build the Support Foundation, Then Own QA: Partner with the Head of Customer Success to strengthen our support tooling and processes. Once that foundation is in place, quality assurance becomes your full‑time focus, making sure standards are applied consistently across every interaction
  • Support Enterprise Reporting: Help prepare and spot‑check the reporting we share with clients, and keep our internal and external documentation current
  • Manage Our External Support Partner: Track performance against agreed standards, and hold our team to a high bar as we refine their scope
  • Cover the Queue When Leadership Is Heads‑Down: Monitor tickets and escalations while the Head of Customer Success is in client meetings or otherwise unavailable
Required Skills And Qualifications
  • 5–7 years of experience in customer support, support operations, or CX, ideally in fintech, payments, or crypto
  • Experience managing an outsourced or offshore support team, including performance reviews and quality oversight
  • Hands‑on experience with modern support tooling, including building workflows and reporting
  • Comfort making fast, judgment‑based decisions inside clearly defined guardrails, and knowing when to elevate rather than decide
  • Strong written communication; you'll be setting the tone for how we sound to end users and partners
Nice to Have
  • Familiarity with crypto or blockchain‑based products, even as a user
  • Experience building a support operation from an early or informal state into something more structured
  • Exposure to compliance‑adjacent support workflows (KYC, transaction disputes, fraud review)
Why Join Us
  • Shape the future of payments and programmable money
  • Work with bleeding‑edge tech in a domain where innovation moves fast
  • Join a mission‑driven team focused on access, openness, and trust
  • Be a key contributor, not just a cog—your work will ship fast and matter
  • Collaborate with top‑tier protocols, builders, and financial infrastructure providers
Location and Work Environment

This role is primarily in-person at our Midtown, NYC headquarters. We work together Monday through Thursday for fast, iterative collaboration and optional WFH Fridays to reset and recharge.

We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans. If you would like more information about how your data is processed, please contact us.

This role has a base salary range of $168,000 – $250,000/yr, shared in accordance with NYC pay transparency guidelines. We aim to pay top‑of‑market and benchmark compensation regularly to remain highly competitive within our industry. In addition to base salary, we offer a strong total rewards package that may include equity ownership, performance incentives, and comprehensive benefits. Compensation is tailored by level, with offers based on impact, experience, and skillset, while maintaining internal equity across the team.
