About the Role

We're looking for an experienced Product Director to lead our global Fiat & Payments domain. You'll own the strategy, roadmap, and execution for the infrastructure that powers money movement—from banking integrations and payment rails to fiat on/off ramps, local payment methods, and global payout capabilities.

This is a highly strategic leadership role for someone who thrives at the intersection of product, payments, and financial infrastructure. You'll shape long-term product direction while remaining deeply involved in execution, partner integrations, and day-to-day product decisions. Working cross-functionally with Engineering, Compliance, Finance, Operations, and external partners, you'll build scalable payment experiences that enable global growth.

What You'll Do

  • Own the vision, strategy, and roadmap for the global Fiat & Payments platform.

  • Lead the development of payment products, including:

    • Banking integrations

    • Local payment methods

    • Fiat on/off ramps

    • Payouts and disbursements

    • Card funding and payment acceptance

  • Design and scale the payment infrastructure that supports seamless global money movement.

  • Partner closely with Engineering, Compliance, Operations, Finance, and commercial teams to deliver secure, reliable, and scalable payment capabilities.

  • Drive expansion into new markets by enabling new payment rails, banking relationships, and local payment ecosystems.

  • Build and manage strategic relationships with banking partners, payment processors, fintech providers, and infrastructure vendors.

  • Define and monitor key product and business metrics, including payment conversion, authorization and success rates, transaction costs, operational efficiency, and customer experience.

  • Lead product discovery, prioritization, and execution while maintaining a hands-on approach to delivery.

  • Mentor Product Managers and contribute to scaling a high-performing product organization.

What You'll Bring

  • 5+ years of Product Management experience, with significant expertise in payments, banking, fintech, financial infrastructure, or fiat products.

  • Deep understanding of global payment ecosystems, including bank transfers, card networks, payouts, and alternative payment methods.

  • Proven experience delivering complex products involving multiple external partners, APIs, and third-party integrations.

  • Experience launching products across multiple markets and navigating diverse regulatory environments.

  • Strong knowledge of global payment rails such as ACH, SEPA, Faster Payments, PIX, SPEI, and UPI.

  • Excellent analytical, strategic, and execution skills, with a data-driven approach to product decision-making.

  • Strong commercial acumen with the ability to balance customer needs, business objectives, and technical constraints.

  • Outstanding stakeholder management and communication skills, with experience influencing cross-functional teams and senior stakeholders.

  • Comfortable operating in fast-paced, high-growth environments with a high degree of ownership and autonomy.

Nice to Have

  • Experience with crypto, stablecoins, digital wallets, or digital asset infrastructure.

  • Knowledge of scalable distributed systems and payment architecture.

  • Experience leading, mentoring, or managing Product Managers and building high-performing product teams.
