As a co-founder, I played an instrumental role in building a global organisation across seven countries. My primary focus was on leading product and engineering initiatives, and my work frequently intersected with compliance, marketing, operations and recruiting. Our successful journey included substantial fundraising and a strategic move to go public (Nasdaq: RELY) in 2021. ----------------------- Remitly’s vision is to transform the lives of millions of immigrants and their families with the most trusted financial services products in the world.
