Rain is looking for an operationally minded, detail-oriented Card Operations Manager to own the workflows and compliance requirements that keep our physical card programs running at scale. You'll sit at the intersection of our internal teams, clients, card networks (e.g. Visa), and manufacturing partners – bridging product, engineering, and the real-world experience of every cardholder. This is a high-ownership role for someone who can manage complexity across multiple programs simultaneously, bring structure to ambiguity, and act as a trusted strategic partner to clients and vendors alike.

• Own physical card program operations end-to-end – work directly with card manufacturers, processors, payment networks, and key vendors to monitor performance, drive continuous improvement, and resolve escalations with urgency and precision.

• Lead manufacturer implementations – partner closely with Head of Card Network Operations to drive onboarding of new card manufacturers and expand functionality with existing manufacturers to ensure capabilities meet evolving program needs.

• Be a strategic partner to clients – guide partners through card requirements, own onboarding timelines for new card programs, and ensure every launch lands on time and on spec through rigorous project management.

• Keep the machine running – manage end-to-end physical card billing operations and support reporting requirements from third-party vendors.

• Drive visibility and accountability – maintain project trackers, run weekly vendor syncs, and deliver regular status reports that keep cross-functional stakeholders aligned and informed.

• 4–7 years of experience in card operations, payments operations, or a related fintech/financial services function

• Deep familiarity with physical card issuance, card network rules (Visa, Mastercard), and card manufacturer relationships

• Exceptional project management skills – you can hold many threads at once without dropping any

• A clear, confident communicator who can hold vendors accountable and guide clients with authority

• Someone who thrives in ambiguity, moves quickly, and builds process where none exists

• Experience working cross-functionally with engineering and product teams is a strong plus

• Bonus: exposure to stablecoin or crypto-native card programs
