You will shape the strategy, roadmap, and execution for a mission-critical ecommerce engine, ensuring seamless, secure, and high-converting transactions.

Working cross-functionally with Engineering, Design, Data, Finance, Operations, and Risk, you will optimize payment performance while balancing fraud prevention and user experience. This is a senior individual contributor position with significant influence, offering the opportunity to drive measurable business outcomes at scale.

• Manage and optimize relationships with backend payment infrastructure partners, including payment service providers (PSPs), orchestration platforms, and fraud prevention vendors.
• Partner with Risk and Operations teams to design fraud mitigation systems that protect the business while minimizing customer friction.
• Analyze transaction performance metrics, including authorization rates, failure modes, and fraud trends, to inform strategic decisions.
• Collaborate cross-functionally to ensure the ecommerce platform remains scalable, resilient, and aligned with growth objectives.
• Take full ownership of outcomes across the payments funnel, driving continuous performance improvements.

Qualifications

• 6–10 years of product management experience, with substantial ownership of payments, checkout, or ecommerce platforms.
• Proven experience managing payment service providers, payment orchestration layers, or fraud solutions in high-scale consumer environments.
• Strong understanding of checkout optimization, authorization rate improvement, and fraud versus conversion tradeoffs.
• Demonstrated success operating as a senior individual contributor, driving both strategy and execution across cross-functional teams.
• Comfort working with technical, infrastructure-heavy systems and collaborating closely with engineering teams.
• Strong analytical mindset with experience leveraging data, experimentation, and A/B testing to guide decisions.
• Excellent stakeholder management skills with the ability to balance customer experience, business performance, risk, and compliance considerations.
• Experience in consumer marketplaces, high-GMV ecommerce, global payments, or alternative payment methods is a plus.

Benefits

• Competitive salary range of $212,000 – $250,000 USD, based on experience and market benchmarks
• Equity package and performance-based growth opportunities
