About the role
- We're currently looking for a Payments Product Manager who will take a key role on our United States location-neutral team.
- You'll serve as CardFlight's payments domain expert.
- The nature of payments integrations and certifications means a meaningful portion of your time also involves project-level execution, but the job is defined by product thinking, not task coordination.
Responsibilities
- Serving as the primary point of contact with processors and card brands for compliance matters, emerging standards, and production issues, with the communication skills and relationship-building discipline to represent CardFlight effectively in high-stakes technical conversations.
- Reviewing card brand compliance bulletins and emerging payments standards, developing a pragmatic point of view on where the product needs to evolve, surfacing and actioning those recommendations proactively.
- Acting as CardFlight's internal expert on topics like emerging payment methods and standards, EMV kernels, certification intake requirements, and processor integration architecture, helping the broader team build knowledge.
- Reading and interpreting raw specification documents from card brands and processors, and translating them into clear, engineering-ready requirements, user stories, and Product Requirements Documents without requiring them to be pre-interpreted by someone else.
- Advocating for payments capabilities such as emerging authentication standards, network tokenization, or new payment methods by building the product case before they become urgent priorities.
- Clearly communicating the reasoning behind roadmap decisions to engineering, operations, and partner teams so everyone understands not just what is being built but why.
- Deeply embedded in the payments team's culture and daily work, serving as a trusted partner to the certification team while bringing a product management lens to their priorities and processes.
- Working with operations to share product requirements, review documentation, and train the team on how new features or compliance changes work so they can effectively support merchants after launch.
- Comfort with the project-management overhead that payments certifications require tracking timelines, managing external partners, and coordinating across teams while keeping the product perspective front and center.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the organizational discipline to manage multiple deadlines and work with external partners simultaneously.
Requirements
- You thrive in technical ambiguity, operate with a high degree of self-sufficiency, and understand that in payments, the details matter as much as the strategy.
- At least 3 years (and preferably 5-10+ years) of product management experience in payments.
Compensation
- $120,000 - $180,000
- Annualized Company Performance Bonus: $8,000 - $20,000
- Company Stock Options: 10,000
