Real-time payments infrastructure operator clearing $2T daily
The Clearing House operates core U.S. payments infrastructure, handling wire, ACH, check, and instant payments at massive scale. The tech stack is production-heavy—Kubernetes, Prometheus, Grafana, Dynatrace—reflecting the operational demands of a $2T/day clearing operation. Current hiring focuses on engineering and security roles across junior to director levels, with active projects centering on legacy modernization (ISO 20022 migration, monolith-to-microservices), cloud CI/CD pipeline buildout, and observability. The pain-point cluster reveals tension between maintaining high-traffic production systems and executing the infrastructure rewrites required to support real-time settlement at scale.
The Clearing House is the only private-sector operator of instant payments, ACH, and wire settlement infrastructure in the United States. The company clears and settles over $2 trillion each business day and operates the RTP® network, which enables immediate clearing, settlement, and secure exchange of payment information. Beyond operations, The Clearing House Association—its affiliate—serves as the country's oldest banking trade association, providing advocacy and thought leadership on payments policy. Headquarters in New York; 201–500 employees.
The RTP® network, launched in 2017, supports immediate clearing and settlement of payments with secure exchange of related payment information. The Clearing House represents 98% of instant payments volume in the U.S.
