About Airwallex

Airwallex is the AI-native financial operating system for a real-time, intelligent economy. More than 675,000 businesses, including McLaren Racing, Qantas, SHEIN, and TikTok, use us, directly or through our platform partners, to run their financial operations or build and monetize financial products of their own.

We started in Melbourne in 2015 to build the infrastructure global commerce runs on. We're the regulated backbone behind global payments: not by accident, but by design. A decade plus, 85+ licenses, and a financial infrastructure spanning North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific.

We're co-headquartered in San Francisco and Singapore, with more than 2,700 people across 27 offices. We hire builders with founder-level energy, people who move fast with good judgment, dig in with real curiosity, and make calls from first principles rather than waiting to be told what to do. Read our operating principles to see it in full.

 

How you'll make impact

Embedded Finance is a significant growth opportunity for Airwallex and the broader financial industry. You'll shape the product strategy and lead the teams building the capabilities that make sophisticated financial infrastructure accessible to customers and partners.

  • Lead and develop a high-performing team of Product Managers, creating a culture of ownership, product quality, customer focus, and continuous learning.

  • Identify opportunities to expand how customers and partners use Airwallex’s financial infrastructure, balancing platform investments with immediate customer and business needs.

  • Partner with Engineering, Design, Commercial, Partnerships, Operations, Compliance, Risk, Legal, and Executive Leadership to deliver scalable products and align complex stakeholder groups.

  • Use customer insights, market dynamics, competitive intelligence, and data to set priorities, establish success metrics, and measure customer and business outcomes.

  • Shape company strategy through a deep understanding of customer needs, market opportunities, and the evolving embedded finance ecosystem.

  • Act as a thought partner to senior leadership on platform strategy, ecosystem growth, and the future direction of Airwallex’s financial infrastructure products.

You'll work from our San Francisco office three days a week.

What we're looking for

Essentials

  • 10+ years of product management experience, including significant experience leading product teams in high-growth technology or fintech environments.

  • A proven track record of defining and scaling successful platform, infrastructure, payments, fintech, or ecosystem products.

  • The ability to connect customer needs, technical capabilities, and business objectives into a clear product vision.

  • Deep customer empathy and strong product intuition, with a passion for creating simple, elegant experiences that solve meaningful customer problems.

  • Proven success with API or platform integrations and technical go-to-market launches.

  • A strong analytical and commercial mindset, with experience making data-informed decisions and prioritising high-impact opportunities.

  • Comfort working across multiple time zones, with exceptional written and verbal communication skills.

  • A strong record of academic achievement from a highly respected university.

Preferred

  • Experience in Embedded Finance, Banking-as-a-Service, Payments, Treasury, Cards, Financial Infrastructure, Platform Products, APIs, or Developer Platforms.

  • Experience building products for businesses, software platforms, marketplaces, or ecosystem partners.

  • Experience operating in global markets and navigating regulatory, operational, and technical complexity at scale.

You'll thrive here if

  • You're comfortable owning the roadmap yourself.

  • You're comfortable making decisions with incomplete information and moving quickly anyway.

  • You're excited by a category that hasn't been won yet, and want to be early enough to shape it.

  • You enjoy working closely with people across multiple countries and time zones as part of one connected, global team, including flexing your hours occasionally to make that connection work.

  • You say what you mean. You're direct, but you lead with respect.

  • You connect dots across functions and hold the big picture without losing grip on the details.
