About Vignex:
Vignex is a crypto SIP app for first-time investors, in the language they speak at home. Crypto? Totally your way.
Users pick an amount and a schedule, and Vignex buys Bitcoin, Ethereum or another major coin for them, a little at a time. We do SIPs only: no trading screens, no futures, no leverage. We’re starting in Hindi, then adding Marathi, Kannada, Telugu, Tamil and Gujarati. Vignex will register with FIU-IND before launch, with KYC, anti-money-laundering checks and tax deduction built in from day one.
The role
You’ll own product and engineering, from the first line of code through FIU-IND registration to launch. Then you’ll hire and lead the team that runs it.
What you’ll build
Android, iOS and web apps for sign-up and SIPs, multilingual from day one
KYC to FIU-IND’s standard: PAN checks, live selfie, location and device capture, bank-account verification
The recurring SIP engine, payments, and order execution through a liquidity partner
Wallets and custody, with Travel Rule data on withdrawals
Transaction monitoring and suspicious-activity reporting
TDS calculation and tax statements for users
Security strong enough to pass a CERT-In empanelled audit before registration
You might be a fit if you
Have built and shipped production software that real customers use, ideally in fintech, payments or trading
Have worked with KYC, payments, wallets or exchange systems (crypto experience helps but isn’t required)
Think about security first, and don’t mind audits and compliance
Want real ownership and are comfortable with early-stage uncertainty
What I bring
I lead the business side: compliance and FIU-IND registration, banking and liquidity partners, and go-to-market.
What we offer
Equity
Salary: none until we raise, moving to a market salary after funding (Bitter but True)
An equal say in product, tech stack, hiring and culture

Work arrangement
Hybrid
