About the Role

We’re looking for a Product Manager to own cross-border payments end-to-end - strategy, roadmap, execution, and iteration. This is a hands-on PM role: you write PRDs, run sprints, dig into data, and ship. You need to understand how money moves internationally - FX, settlement, compliance rails and be comfortable using AI to push product capabilities forward.

What You’ll Do

• Own product vision, roadmap, and OKRs for cross-border payments
• Write PRDs, define acceptance criteria, run sprint planning, and own delivery from spec through launch and post-launch monitoring
• Partner with engineering on system design—payment orchestration, FX engine, ledger, reconciliation, API contracts
• Drive customer research: interviews, usability tests, funnel analysis, side-by-side sessions with support teams
• Collaborate with legal, compliance, and risk to ship products that meet regulatory requirements across jurisdictions while keeping friction low
• Identify where AI/ML creates real product leverage (routing, fraud, pricing, ops automation)
• Competitive benchmarking across the cross-border landscape to inform roadmap and positioning

Must Have

• 6+ years in product management with a track record of shipping at scale
• 3–4+ years in FinTech, Payments, or Financial Services; direct exposure to cross-border money movement, FX, or remittances strongly preferred
• Solid understanding of payment systems: payment processors, FX engines, settlement mechanics, SWIFT/local rails, reconciliation
• Hands-on with PRDs, sprints, and working directly with engineering in an agile setup
• Working knowledge of regulatory frameworks (AML/KYC, sanctions screening, licensing) in cross-border context
• Clear communicator who can write a spec, present to leadership, and align cross-functional teams

Good to Have

• Shipped or contributed to products leveraging AI/ML (intelligent routing, risk scoring, dynamic pricing, LLM-based ops automation)
