• Build and optimize consumer card experiences, including card activation, spending controls, notifications, and transaction visibility.

• Partner deeply with engineering, compliance, risk, and operations to design reliable and compliant payment flows.

• Drive integrations with wallets, crypto infrastructure, and digital asset products where relevant.

• Translate complex payments infrastructure into simple, trusted consumer experiences.

• Monitor card program performance including authorization rates, fraud metrics, transaction success, and operational reliability.

• Collaborate with external partners and vendors to ensure seamless integrations and operational excellence.

• Identify opportunities to improve card economics, product differentiation, and user engagement.

What We’re Looking For

• 8+ years of Product Management experience, with meaningful time spent in fintech or payments.

• Direct experience launching or scaling a card issuing program (0→1 or major rebuild).

• Deep familiarity with card issuing infrastructure, including banks, processors, and card networks.

• Experience working with authorization flows, transaction lifecycle, disputes, and card controls.

• Strong understanding of payments architecture and financial systems.

• Ability to operate in fast-moving startup environments with high ownership and ambiguity.

• Proven ability to work cross-functionally with engineering, compliance, operations, and external partners.

• Strong product instincts and ability to translate complex systems into great user experiences.

• Preference for candidates who can work hybrid in our NYC office.
