About Us

At Félix, we're building the financial ecosystem for Latin immigrants in the U.S., starting with a revolution in remittances. Our core product is an AI-powered chatbot built on WhatsApp, allowing our users to send money home as easily as sending a text message. We leverage cutting-edge technology like AI, blockchain, and stablecoins to make cross-border payments faster, more affordable, and more accessible than ever before. We are a hyper-growth Series B company, backed by over $100 million in funding from top-tier global investors, including QED, Castle Island, Switch Ventures, HTwenty, Monashees, and General Catalyst Customer Value Fund. This isn't just about the numbers; it's a testament to the trust our investors have in our vision and our team. Additionally, Félix was selected as an “Endeavour Entrepreneur” and was a recipient of the CrossTech Fintech Startups Award. We are a group of extremely talented and dedicated high-performers, united by our shared obsession with a single goal: empowering our customers.

About The Role

We are building the future of remittances through a seamless, AI-powered WhatsApp experience. We’re looking for a Disbursement Analyst who is obsessed with making our money transfer experience "insanely great." You won’t just be pulling data; you will be the guardian of our disbursement efficiency. You will work closely with Disbursements, Operations, and Product Managers to ensure our transactions are fast, cost-effective, and flawless. We need a "natural investigator" who can dive into a dataset to understand why a transaction was held up or where a routing defect occurred, turning those findings into a better, more reliable product for millions of Latino immigrants.

Responsibilities

• Experience: 5+ years of experience as a Data Analyst, Financial Analyst, or Operations Analyst
• 3+ years of experience in Fintech, Cross-Border Payments, or Remittances
• Proven 2-3+ years of experience measuring payment rails, transaction routing KPIs
• You should be comfortable discussing success rates, cost analysis, and the tradeoffs between transaction speed and operational cost
• Strong SQL skills (you’ll live in BigQuery / DBT / Firestore)
• Experience with BI tools like Omni / Tableau / PowerBI / Looker or similar
• DBT is a must
• A startup mindset—you are proactive, you have a bias towards action, and you don’t wait for permission to fix something that’s broken
• Ability to explain to a non-technical stakeholder why a 1% drop in success rates matters for our users and its impact on other KPIs like NPS and Retention
• Advanced English. Spanish or Portuguese is a plus!
