  • Represent Issuer Activation in sales conversations with prospective issuers
  • Define success metrics: conversion rates, time-to-live, data-quality resolution rates, satisfaction scores
  • Produce product specs, decision memos, and customer-facing playbooks

Role Requirements

  • 7+ years product management experience; 3+ years in data, migration, or fintech operations
  • Direct experience shipping products with complex data ingestion, reconciliation, or migration workflows
  • Track record building self-serve, diagnostic-led products
  • Strong understanding surfacing data-quality signals as actionable customer guidance
  • Technical architecture comfort and cross-functional engineering collaboration
  • Sandbox/test environment design experience
  • Strong written communication skills
  • Distributed international team experience
  • Hands-on AI/ML tool experience

  • Implementation lead, solutions architect, or operations engineering background
