About TymeX
TymeX is the product, technology and data analytics hub of the Tyme Group. At TymeX, we are reimagining digital banking across emerging markets, across South Africa and Asia.
Our mission is to unlock human potential, and we aim to do so through the development of transformative financial services that empower individuals and small businesses. We believe in the power of technology to provide products that make a real difference in our customers lives.
About The Product Team
Early on, we realized that to truly deliver financial services that are innovative, transparent, fair, and intuitive, we'd have to reinvent how they're created altogether. We needed people who could seamlessly blend strategic vision with hands-on product management, who could effortlessly move from understanding customer needs to coordinating cross-functional teams. And that's exactly why our Product team exists. Part Product Visionary, part Business Strategist, part Customer Advocate. We are a team of digital evangelists, bankers, fintech-ers and some less obvious backgrounds. Our offices are in Vietnam but we operate from all over the world.
Today, our team run products that are improving the lives of more than 15 million customers.
