What our Remitlians say

Evelyne Kuo

Program Manager - Technical

On the Security & Privacy team, I reimagine what’s possible by going beyond traditional compliance to create a culture where security is part of everyone’s day-to-day — through programs like our champion network, engaging training sessions, and company-wide awareness events that make security approachable and empowering.”

What our Remitlians say

Amara Agbo

Software Development Engineer II

To me, reimagining what’s possible means constantly learning new technologies and applying cutting-edge solutions to build localized systems that scale across currencies, countries, and regulations. The challenges we solve at Remitly don’t just strengthen our platform — they expand financial access for millions of people worldwide. That’s what makes the work both exciting and impactful.”

What our Remitlians say

Rosa Castellon Herrera

Stand for excellence means to me always raising the bar, pushing through discomfort, to deliver our best to our teams and customers every time. We come together as a team to share ideas to develop a rubric that helps us deliver impactful results.”

Stephanie Cameron

Senior Product Manager

On the product team at Remitly, I’m trusted to make decisions that drive real impact—not just for my team, but for the business and our customers. I’m encouraged to take ownership of problems even when they’re outside my immediate scope, to speak up, and to bring the right people together to solve them. Lately, that’s meant working on real-time FX and funding tools that support our treasury team in lowering transaction costs—so we can pass those savings on to our customers. That trust and cross-team collaboration make it easy to stay focused on what really matters in the long run.”

What our Remitlians say

Nadav Yekutiel

Senior Manager - Analytics

At Remitly, diving deep has meant pushing past easy answers to truly understand what our customers need. I’ve seen our analytics teams uncover insights that weren’t obvious at first glance — like identifying hidden friction points in the customer journey that, once solved, improved both experience and trust. This commitment to going beyond the surface makes our recommendations stronger, and it’s a big part of how we deliver meaningful impact across the business.”
