Summary Generated by Built In

At PPRO, our mission is to simplify access to local payment methods and our vision is to enable the sale of goods and services to anyone in the world using their preferred way to pay. We empower partners such as Ant Group, PayPal and Stripe to access new markets, connect with more customers, and accelerate their growth.

Our strength lies in our diverse global team with 50+ nationalities and 10+ international locations- all united around one goal – to deliver the best possible products and services to our partners and customers. While our company mission is to keep innovating global commerce, our internal mission is to #chooseaction, #beopen, #thinkcustomer, #gofurther and #wintogether

The Purpose:

As a Senior Product Manager in PPRO’s Risk Domain, you will own and scale the Customer Risk Platform that enables global growth through trust.

You will be transforming fragmented, manual processes into a programmatic, API-driven powerhouse for fraud prevention, KYC lifecycle management, and AML monitoring.

Your mission is to solve the complex, narrow bottlenecks that hinder scale, ensuring PPRO moves money faster and safer than the competition whilst optimising and improving boarding times for our customers.

What You Will Be Doing

Standardize Complexity: Turn fragmented regulatory requirements into standardized, fully automated workflows that allow PPRO to scale into new markets with confidence.

Modernize the Core: Execute the strategy for a unified Customer Risk Platform, automating compliance flows with scalable, automated, and API-first solutions.

Navigate High-Stakes Logic: Solve high-complex problems—from optimizing real-time fraud detection signals to automating periodic due diligence across diverse global jurisdictions.

Bridge Risk & Growth: Partner with Engineering, RiskOps, and Compliance to build a system that acts as a business enabler, not a bottleneck, for our LPM and card network footprint.

Master the Data: Dive deep into structured and unstructured data to build sophisticated merchant risk scoring and proactive monitoring systems.

What Success Looks Like

Launch of a scalable, API-first Customer Risk Platform embedded into PPRO’s Global API and dashboard.
Improved visibility and monitoring of fraud and compliance signals across LPMs, cards, and regions.
Higher automation rates for KYC lifecycle reviews, AML monitoring, and compliance workflows.
Reduced manual operational workload for RiskOps and Compliance teams.
Increased partner and merchant confidence driven by improved transparency and tooling.
Stronger data-driven merchant risk scoring through integrated fraud and compliance signals.

What We Are Looking For

End-to-End Ownership: You have a proven track record of taking complex risk products from discovery to delivery. You are a "closer" who values shipped automation over theoretical frameworks.

Technical & Data Fluency: You are comfortable working with APIs, data pipelines, and engineers to build automated risk engines. You don't just consume data; you use it to drive prioritization and product design.

Strategic Navigator: You can handle the ambiguity of shifting regulations and high-pressure risk scenarios, building consensus across highly technical and highly conservative (Compliance/Risk) stakeholders.

Execution Focus: You possess an entrepreneurial mindset and a bias for action, with the ability to move from high-level vision to hands-on delivery in a fast-paced environment.

Risk & Compliance Domain Mastery: Ideally, you have deep, battle-tested experience in Fintech, specifically within fraud prevention, KYC/KYB, AML monitoring, and regulatory technology. You understand the nuances of global compliance landscapes.

Why Join Us?

At PPRO, managing risk is not about blocking. It is about enabling growth with confidence while maintaining strong regulatory compliance and fraud prevention. As a Senior Product Manager in the Risk Domain, you will be instrumental in shaping how PPRO prevents fraud, monitors customer risk, and maintains regulatory compliance at global scale. You will help build a modern Customer Risk Platform that provides real-time risk visibility, automates key compliance controls, and integrates seamlessly into how our customers and internal teams operate. If you are passionate about proactive risk management, compliance technology, and data-led product development, this role is for you.
