Product Manager – Payments & Integrations
If you’re looking to own something core to a fast-scaling fintech business, this is it.
You’ll step into a role where payments aren’t just a feature – they’re the foundation. You’ll have real ownership over a product that directly impacts merchant growth, transaction success, and overall business performance.

- Define and drive the integrations roadmap (APIs, plugins, gateways)
- Improve transaction success rates and onboarding speed
- Identify and solve integration friction using data and insights
- Lead delivery with engineering and manage external partners (PSPs/gateways)
- Own performance, reliability, and uptime of integrations
What we’re looking for
- 5+ years Product Management experience
- Strong background in payments, APIs, or platform products
- Understanding of payment ecosystems and integrations
- Commercially aware and data-driven
- Comfortable working closely with engineers and stakeholders
The fit
You’ll do well here if you:
- Take ownership and move things forward
- Balance strategy with delivery
- Care about performance, reliability, and real impact
This is a great opportunity to step into a role where you’re not just building features – you’re shaping how a payments platform scales.
