About the Job
Our Experiments team builds growth engines for Xendit through experimental products. We do this by pushing the frontiers of what is possible in the industry and creating modern solutions to old problems. As part of the Experiments team, you may become part of a team that builds from 0 to 1, from 1 to 1,000, or from 1,000 to the moon. This role requires flexibility and adaptability to take on new challenges to grow an early-stage product. The team presents a unique opportunity for people who are looking to build something new, rather than scaling mature products. People who join this team have a strong interest in growth (personally and professionally) and, therefore, a continuous improvement mindset.
We're looking for a passionate individual to be a Business Analyst in our Experiments team.
