We're seeking a Senior Product Manager, Platform to own and evolve the foundational services that every product at Payabli depends on. From identity and authentication to embedded components, tokenization, and notification systems—you'll be the connective tissue between engineering and the rest of the organization, ensuring our platform is secure, scalable, and built to last.
What You'll Do
- Identity & Access Management: Lead the strategy and execution of our identity platform, spanning both authentication and authorization. You'll define how users and API consumers prove who they are and what they're allowed to do. This includes SSO management, multi-tenant permissions models, and API authentication and authorization.
- Embedded Components & Creator Suite: Own the foundational suite of embeddable components that our platform partners use to build financial experiences. You'll drive the strategy for our component library—from white-labeled UI elements to drop-in workflows—ensuring our partners can go live faster with less engineering effort.
- Tokenization Services: Own the cross-cutting tokenization layer that serves multiple product lines. You'll work across teams to ensure a unified approach to sensitive data handling that scales with our growth and meets compliance requirements.
- Communications & Compliance: Own the notification system and communication channels that keep our platform running. This includes managing SMS as a channel—including 10DLC compliance in the US—email delivery, and other messaging infrastructure.
- Logging, Observability & Data: Drive the platform's logging infrastructure, observability capabilities, and data dashboard foundations. You'll ensure that internal teams and platform partners have the visibility they need to operate with confidence.
- API Ecosystem & Developer Experience: Champion the overall health and usability of our API ecosystem. You'll partner with engineering on API design, versioning, governance, and documentation—ensuring that both internal teams and external partners can build reliably on our platform.
What We're Looking For
- 5+ years in product management with deep experience in platform, infrastructure, or developer-facing products.
- Hands-on experience building and maintaining foundational platform services (identity/auth, APIs, SDKs, notification systems, or similar).
- Track record of shipping API-first products in a B2B SaaS or multi-tenant environment.
- Experience with authentication and authorization systems (OAuth, SSO, RBAC/ABAC, API key management).
- Familiarity with embeddable/white-label component systems and developer experience optimization.
- Experience working in regulated industries (fintech, payments, banking, or financial infrastructure) is a strong plus.
- Understanding of tokenization, data security, and PCI compliance concepts.
- Ability to partner deeply with engineering on API design, data models, and system architecture.
- Understanding of cloud identity services (AWS Cognito, Auth0, or similar) and their tradeoffs.
- (Nice to have) Familiarity with messaging compliance (10DLC, carrier regulations) and communication channel management.
Our Values
- Team Love = Customer Love: You understand that when you build great products for your internal partners, they deliver exceptional experiences to merchants.
- Run to the Fire: You don't shy away from hard problems—you chase them. You volunteer for the complex, messy challenges others avoid.
- Little Things Count: You sweat the details because you know a single decimal error in a payout can damage a business.
- Truth Seekers: You give direct feedback, receive it with grace, and never let ego get in the way of finding the right answer.
- Relentlessly Curious: You're constantly asking "what if?" and "why not?" You study how competitors solve problems and explore adjacent industries for inspiration.
What We Can Offer You
- Competitive salary
- Stock options with the potential to unlock more equity as we grow
- Flexible PTO and paid parental leave
- Medical, dental, & vision insurance
- 401K, HSA, pre-tax savings programs
