Key Responsibilities
- Own product strategy and execution across acquiring, issuing, merchant onboarding/KYC/AML, settlements, fraud/risk, and platform services.
- Deliver results: drive complex, cross-functional initiatives from discovery through launch, fast, reliable, and always focused on outcomes.
- Scale and mentor a high-performing product team, setting a culture of ownership, accountability, and customer-centricity.
- Partner cross-functionally with engineering, risk, and business teams to build resilient, high-performance payments systems (processing, directory services, messaging, fraud prevention).
- Represent product externally with banks, processors, vendors, and internally with the board and executive team.
- Balance today and tomorrow: prioritize reliability and scalability while laying the groundwork for innovation.
What We’re Looking For
- Proven track record leading product at scale (Director/Head/VP) in top-tier payments or fintech companies (e.g., Stripe, Square, Adyen, PayPal).
- Deep domain expertise in payments (acquiring and issuing required); strong grasp of the full ecosystem including onboarding/KYC/AML, billing/settlements, fraud/risk, and remittances.
- Execution-focused operator who thrives in complexity and brings clarity to fast-moving, ambiguous environments.
- Credible leader with “been there, done that” experience, able to command respect and inspire senior PMs and engineers.
- Experience scaling API-based platforms or embeddable services; hardware/payments device experience is a plus.
- International payments and FBO bank/processor integration experience is a plus.
- Startup or venture-backed DNA with an entrepreneurial mindset, ambitious, comfortable with resource constraints.
- Exceptional leadership, communication, and stakeholder management skills.
What Defines Success Here
- Ownership mentality: you run through walls to deliver results.
- Work ethic: willing to push hard (including nights and weekends when necessary).
- Truth seeker: data-driven, ego-free decision-making.
- Calm under pressure: runs toward problems, not away.
- Scrappy and resourceful: “small giant” mindset, making big things happen with limited resources.
- Kind and inspiring: earns respect while holding people accountable.
- Customer-obsessed: the end goal is simple, customers write us love letters.
