Senior Data Partnerships Manager

About The Role

Taktile is redefining how financial institutions use AI to make critical decisions, and we're growing fast. Our customers use our product to catch fraudsters, prevent money laundering, and expand access to credit for businesses as well as consumers, among many other use cases. Taktile is making millions of such decisions across the globe every day. We offer a powerful suite of tools that combine ML/AI, heuristics, analytics, and seamless data integrations to 200+ third-party providers—including credit bureaus, fraud solutions, open banking, and accounting data.

We're hiring a Senior Manager, Data Marketplace to scale this—and the role is unusually hybrid. You'll operate across three areas: Domain expertise; being our in-house authority on what each provider is actually good for, and helping customers to make the right decisions
Partnerships; sourcing, negotiating, and managing relationships with data providers
Product; shaping our Data Marketplace: what we integrate, how we expose it, how we maximize the value for our clients

What You'll Do

• Drive strategic partnerships by sourcing, negotiating, and launching collaborations with data providers—ensuring each partner delivers clear value to our customers and aligns with our Data Marketplace strategy.
• Lead partner onboarding and launch readiness, coordinating across legal, technical, and commercial teams to ensure smooth onboarding, and successful go-to-market launches.
• Own ongoing partner success, running regular business reviews, co-marketing initiatives, and performance check-ins to maximize mutual growth and customer adoption.
• Manage the commercial and operational backbone of our partner ecosystem, including billing models, revenue-sharing agreements, and pricing structures.
• Serve as the internal expert on partner data products, understanding each provider’s capabilities, limitations, and value propositions, and translating that into clear positioning and enablement materials.
• Build and scale a robust knowledge base that acts as the central source of truth for partner integrations, documentation, and best practices—empowering product, sales, and customer success teams.
• Surface insights and feedback from the field, identifying market trends, product gaps, and integration opportunities that inform our roadmap and strengthen our competitive edge.
