Apple and Google Hunt for Stablecoin Experts Amid Crypto Payment Plans
Apple has posted a job listing for a Financial Product Strategy Lead in the US, requiring experience with stablecoins and crypto technology. The role offers a base pay range of $149,700 to $280,000 and involves developing long-term strategy, assessing growth opportunities, and evaluating products and partnerships across Wallets, Payments, and Commerce.
The job listing comes as Google is recruiting an Industry Principal Architect, Web3, in Hong Kong. This role focuses on infrastructure and customer engagement, and the successful candidate will bring production-grade Web3 systems experience and work with Google Cloud's strategic Web3 engagements across Asia-Pacific.
Google's posting highlights its existing product footprint, including its Universal Ledger and Agent Payments Protocol, which are aimed at tokenized payments and blockchains. The role of Industry Principal Architect, Web3, will act as a bridge between customers and Google's product and engineering organizations, with common architectural issues helping inform reusable reference architectures and the company's Web3 product roadmap.
