  • Align payment solutions with clients’ long-term goals, ensuring scalability, efficiency, and compliance with industry regulations.
  • Facilitate workshops and stakeholder alignment sessions to gather requirements and drive consensus on project priorities.
  • Participate in the integration of payment platforms with client systems, including ACH, SWIFT, ISO 20022, and custom APIs.
  • Ensure all configurations meet compliance standards, including NACHA, SWIFT security, PCI-DSS, and regional regulations.
  • Assess and redesign payment workflows to optimize efficiency and reduce operational costs.
  • Assist in guiding clients through change management initiatives, ensuring smooth adoption of new payment processes and technologies including providing training and knowledge transfer to empower clients’ teams post-implementation.
  • Develop and execute testing strategies for end-to-end validation of system functionality and payment accuracy.
  • Identify and mitigate risks related to payment system integration, including fraud prevention and security vulnerabilities.


Requirements

Education and Experience:

  • Bachelor’s degree or similar equivalent work experience
