Title and Summary

Overview
We are seeking a strategic, execution-oriented Director of Product Management to lead a team responsible for high-priority Open Finance payment solutions: a new-to-market capability designed to enable more seamless and intelligent digital payment experiences, and an AI/ML-powered payment risk suite designed to predict and prevent ACH returns and fraud.
This is a uniquely compelling product leadership opportunity, combining the energy and ownership of building a new product from 0–1 with the reach, complexity, and impact of leading highly scaled solutions. This leader will shape portfolio strategy, translate customer and market needs into differentiated products, and guide solutions across the full product lifecycle- from early-stage innovation and launch through commercialization, optimization, and scale.
Role
Portfolio Strategy: Define and execute the vision, strategy, roadmap, and investment priorities across the portfolio, balancing near-term delivery with long-term innovation and growth. Team Leadership: Lead, coach, and develop a team of product managers, establishing clear ownership, priorities, and operating rhythms while fostering accountability, collaboration, and professional growth. Product Development: Guide products from 0–1 concept development through iterative delivery, launch, and scale, ensuring clear requirements, disciplined prioritization, and strong partnership with engineering, data science, design, operations, and go-to-market teams. AI/ML Product Leadership: Partner closely with Data Science and Engineering to develop, optimize, and scale predictive payment risk models, fraud management capabilities, and decisioning experiences that deliver measurable customer outcomes. Customer and Market Insight: Engage directly with financial institutions, fintechs, merchants, and partners to validate value propositions, understand unmet needs, monitor competitive and technology trends, and translate insights into the roadmap. Commercialization: Develop product positioning, pricing, business cases, and go-to-market plans that support adoption, revenue growth, profitability, and customer satisfaction. Executive and Cross-Functional Leadership: Communicate a compelling product vision to executive leadership and align stakeholders across engineering, data science, sales, marketing, legal, privacy, operations, and support to drive decisions and execution. Measurement and Optimization: Establish clear success metrics, evaluate product and model performance, and use data and customer feedback to continuously improve outcomes.
