Jason Lee is a visionary fintech executive and company builder transforming how financial systems serve and empower everyday workers.
Jason is Chief of Chime Enterprise, where he leads a high-growth business unit delivering next-generation financial wellness solutions to many of the nation’s largest employers and their workforces. With deep expertise in global financial systems and large-scale innovation, Jason is known for his rare ability to identify systemic gaps and build transformative businesses to close them.
His vision is bold and urgent: to modernize and re-architect disconnected financial infrastructure so that it works for today’s workforce. He believes the current system is fragmented and inequitable, leaving millions of workers without the ability to spend and save properly and employers with untapped potential in their teams. At Chime, Jason is building and scaling the tools needed to change that, making long-term financial well-being accessible for all and resulting in deeper employee engagement, retention, and productivity.
Jason’s career journey began on Wall Street, where he spent nearly 20 years advising and building solutions for some of the world’s most powerful financial institutions. That experience gave him an insider’s view of how the financial system worked—and who it failed. Over the past decade, he has founded and scaled three category-defining businesses aimed at closing structural gaps in the system, generating billions of dollars in value. His work has brought tens of millions of frontline workers closer to their earnings and empowered employers to play a more active role in their employees’ financial health.
Today, Jason continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible by reimagining how a more connected, inclusive financial system can improve outcomes for every stakeholder in the economy.
