Own strategic payments initiatives from opportunity discovery through roadmap, prototyping, launch, and commercial results. Build AI-assisted prototypes and proofs of concept, conduct quantitative and customer discovery, make positioning and packaging decisions, and collaborate with engineering, design, and go-to-market teams. The role requires strong commercial judgment, technical fluency, high agency, concise communication, and customer focus. Experience in payments, fintech, marketplaces, B2B SaaS, or hospitality is advantageous but not required.
