Founder's office

About Us

Our mission is to make money smart, reliable, and within reach for everyone. In 2019, we built the first mobile-first insurance platform, enabling insurance to be accessible online by millions in the region. Today, it's the leading insurance platform in Southeast Asia. We are expanding ways to help people in Asia with spending, saving, investing, exchanging, traveling, and more. Our objective is to build tools that will help people get more from their money with ease and self-reliance, becoming experts. We believe AI will help us achieve this in our generation.

We are looking for the most talented and driven people who work for their passion, not counting hours. People who love building great next-generation products, not maintaining the status quo. Those who care about redefining how everyone can access the best financial applications, not just an exclusive few. Our teams work around the world, with over 20 nationalities, from our offices and remotely.

About the Role

We are looking for high-ownership generalists to join the Founder's Office for BJAK's finance super app expansion. This role is for builders who can take on ambiguous business problems, move fast across functions, and help launch new financial products, markets, licenses, and partnerships.

Responsibilities

• Drive zero-to-one strategic projects for the finance super app.
• Support licensing, market entry, partner acquisition, office setup, hiring, and operating plans.
• Research markets, competitors, regulations, partners, and business models.
• Turn founder-level ideas into structured plans, owners, timelines, and next actions.
• Work across product, legal, compliance, finance, hiring, operations, and country teams.
• Build trackers, briefs, memos, operating documents, and execution rhythms.
• Own urgent business problems until they are solved.

Requirements

• Strong generalist with high ownership, strong writing, and sharp business judgment.
• Able to learn new industries, regulations, and markets quickly.
• Comfortable working on licensing, partnerships, operations, market research, and execution.
• Can turn messy inputs into clear plans and follow-through.
• Fast, resourceful, and calm under pressure.
• Strong English communication and structured thinking.
• Experience in startups, consulting, fintech, strategy, operations, investing, or founder-led environments is a strong advantage.

The Kind of Builder We Want

• Finds a way without waiting for a full playbook.
• Can work with senior leaders and still do hands-on execution.
• Writes clearly, thinks practically, and follows up relentlessly.
• Handles ambiguity without creating drama.
• Cares about real outcomes, not looking important.

This Role Is Not For

• People who only want strategy decks.
• Candidates who need fixed job scope and predictable tasks.
• People who avoid follow-up, admin details, or operational work.
• Those who cannot write clearly or move fast.
• People who want title/status more than responsibility.

Location

This role is remote, but candidates must be based in the US. We are hiring specifically for this market, so applicants should already be based in the US.

Language

English is our main working language across global teams. Strong English communication is required.

Interview Process

Our process is designed to move fast:

• Online assessment or practical task
• Role-specific interview
• CEO / final round

For strong candidates, we aim to complete the process and make an offer within 1 week from the start of the interview process. Candidates who complete assessments quickly will be prioritized.
