Product Manager – Payments

Technical Product Manager | Payment Integrations

If you’re someone who enjoys getting deep into the technical side of product – not just sitting between business and engineering – this role is built for you.

You’ll be joining a fast-scaling fintech environment where the product you own sits at the heart of the business. Every transaction, every merchant integration, and every customer experience depends on the platform you’ll be responsible for.

This is a role where:

• You’ll have real ownership of a critical system – not just features
• Your work will directly impact revenue, growth, and customer experience
• You’ll partner closely with strong engineering teams on architecture and system design
• You’ll operate in a space where performance, reliability, and scale truly matter

If you enjoy solving complex technical problems and want to see the real-world impact of your decisions – this is one of those rare roles that gives you that.

The role

You’ll take full ownership of a payment integrations platform – covering APIs, integrations with external partners, and the overall developer experience for merchants.

This is a highly technical product role where you’ll:

• Define how integrations are built, maintained, and scaled
• Work closely with engineering on architecture and system design decisions
• Own the quality, performance, and reliability of the platform
• Translate business needs into detailed technical requirements
• Improve how quickly and easily new clients can integrate

You won’t be operating at a high level only – this role requires someone comfortable in the detail, working hands-on with APIs, logs, and system behaviour.

What you’ll be doing

• Owning the roadmap and technical direction of the integrations platform
• Defining API standards, versioning, and developer experience
• Analysing system performance, failures, and integration issues
• Driving improvements in uptime, latency, and transaction success rates
• Writing clear technical specs (API contracts, flows, data structures)
• Leading delivery across the full integration lifecycle
• Managing relationships with external payment and technology partners
• Supporting commercial teams with integration feasibility and timelines

What they’re looking for

• Strong experience in technical product management (5+ years)
• Proven background working with APIs and system integrations
• Experience in payments / fintech / transaction-based platforms
• Ability to work closely with engineers on technical design and architecture
• Comfortable writing detailed technical requirements and specifications
• Strong understanding of system reliability, performance, and scalability
• Exposure to developer tools, logs, and data analysis (SQL beneficial)

The type of person who will thrive here

• You enjoy being hands-on and technical, not just coordinating
• You think in systems, not just features
• You care deeply about performance, reliability, and quality
• You can connect technical decisions to real business impact
• You’re comfortable challenging and collaborating with engineering teams
• You take ownership and drive outcomes

Why this role stands out

This isn’t just another Product Manager role – it’s an opportunity to own infrastructure that directly powers business growth.

You’ll be working on a platform where:

• Small improvements have huge commercial impact
• Technical decisions truly matter
• You’ll gain deep exposure to payments and high-scale systems
• You’ll grow as a technical product leader
