Thought Machine’s mission is bold – to properly and permanently rid the world’s banks of legacy technology. To achieve this, we have developed the foundations of modern banking and built core and payments technology, which runs natively in the cloud. What we are attempting is hard and means we need great people working together to build great technology.

We have grown rapidly in the past few years – growing our team to more than 550 individuals across offices in London, New York, Singapore and Sydney. We have raised more than $500m in funding and are now valued at $2.7bn. Our investors include Nyca Partners, Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan Chase, Temasek, Molten Ventures, Eurazeo, Intesa Sanpaolo, Standard Chartered, and more.

We have created a culture enabling our team to produce the best work in the industry, ensuring we have fun along the way. We’re regularly cited as having a great workplace culture and, in 2022, were named the number one place to work in New York City by Crain’s New York Business Magazine. We are also listed in Crain’s 2022 Fast 50 – as one of the fastest-growing businesses in New York City.
