Built on a proven model that has helped millions of small and medium businesses across Indonesia manage transactions, track cash flow, and grow — we're now bringing that same know-how to the Philippines together with local strategic partners. We're at an exciting early stage in the Philippine market, which means you'll be one of the first boots on the ground, helping build how BukuPay operates and scales in this market. This is a high-ownership, high-visibility role. BukuWarung is backed by Y-Combinator, AC Ventures, Quona Capital, East Ventures, Golden Gate Ventures, Rocketship.vc, and Tanglin Venture Partners.

We're looking for a Strategy and Operations Associate to support recurring reporting, initiative execution, and cross-functional coordination that drives business growth for BukuPay PH.
