Who you are
You are a product leader who moves fluently between merchant jobs-to-be-done, industrial design and engineering constraints, payment acceptance and certification dependencies, ODM/OEM commercial realities, and the long-term economics of a device fleet.
You don't need to be an electrical engineer or write an EMV kernel. You do know which decisions you own, which require specialist engineering, acquirer, or network input, and how to drive those teams to one integrated outcome.
Your experience should include
- 8+ years of product management experience, including meaningful time owning hardware or hardware-adjacent products such as consumer electronics, IoT devices, or payment terminals.
- Direct experience managing a device portfolio spanning proprietary and third-party (ODM/OEM) hardware, including vendor selection and commercial negotiation.
- Working knowledge of device operating systems — requirements, update management, and security — without needing a firmware engineering background.
- Understanding of the payments ecosystem: EMV, PCI compliance, card-present transaction flows, and acquirer and network relationships.
- A track record of taking hardware through full development cycles (EVT/DVT/PVT) and certification processes.
- Experience weighing device economics (unit cost, margin, and fleet lifetime value) against merchant experience, and driving cross-functional teams to a single integrated outcome.
You might also have
- Experience with SMB or merchant-facing products.
- International hardware deployment experience, including certification and localization.
- Background or fluency in industrial design and hardware or firmware architecture.
- Experience with Android-based device platforms and device networking and connectivity.
We encourage you to apply even if your experience or skillset doesn’t align perfectly with every requirement. We value a wide range of backgrounds and transferable skills, and we are excited to support learning and growth.
