A founder traces how their 10-15 year career in payments led to spotting friction that became their startup idea. They discovered open-source technology that changed their direction, realizing every past role had prepared them for this moment.

Chapters

There's a lot of friction within the industry, so there's a lot of opportunities over there. The payment ecosystem, it's one of that has a lot of fintechs. And during a transition in my career when I decided to be an entrepreneur, to start my own company, that was something that I always wanted to do. I found this open source technology that eventually pivoting, I ended up connecting the dots backward. You realize that all all your experience, it's somehow interconnected. You don't do things randomly. Every step allows you to do the next step, and sometimes things that you did like 10, 15 years ago, it's experience that you have that allows you to load and to use it.
