About the role

  • The bar is external programs that ship faster and more predictably, with leadership no longer pulled into day-to-day coordination.
  • This role is based in our NoHo, NYC office or Toronto office.

Responsibilities

  • Drive execution across partners like Unit, bank partners, card and payment vendors
  • Own the critical path for partner and compliance work, freeing leadership to focus on broader priorities
  • Own timelines, dependencies, and delivery for cross-functional programs
  • Translate between compliance, product, engineering, and partners
  • Drive pay-by-card, treasury, onboarding, and any future partner integration coordination
  • Own compliance and audit readiness (SOC2, BSA/AML, PCI)
  • Lead incident response and resolution across money movement systems
  • Ensure partner requirements are clearly defined, tracked, and delivered
  • Create clear, trusted visibility into program status for leadership
  • Hold vendors and partners accountable to timelines and outcomes

Requirements

  • 5-8 years TPM or technical program leadership experience, ideally in fintech, payments, or other regulated industries
  • Experience leading incident response in money movement systems or other production-critical environments
  • Track record managing partner integrations with banks, card networks, or payment vendors (Unit, Galileo, Stripe Issuing, etc.)
  • Deep familiarity with compliance frameworks (SOC2, BSA/AML, PCI) and how they map to engineering work
  • Strong systems thinking; can translate between compliance, product, engineering, and external partners
  • Comfortable shipping in ambiguity, with a bias for driving clarity and removing blockers
  • Skilled at holding vendors and partners accountable to timelines and outcomes
  • Strong written communication; can produce clear, trusted program status for leadership
  • Comfortable with AI tools to accelerate program coordination and documentation

Nice to have

  • You enjoy working in an idea-meritocratic, low-ego environment
  • You are proactive and self-directed, and you excel in ambiguous, fast moving environments
  • You care about delivering a polished customer experience
  • Chance to join the founding team of a well-funded startup chasing a huge opportunity

Compensation

  • Competitive salary and meaningful equity
