We are looking for a Director of Product to join our Fintech Group. In this role, you will be responsible for guiding the teams that ensure fast, reliable, and accessible financial solutions within and beyond the Wolt platform, enabling seamless access for all users. These teams focus on ensuring smooth and automated money flows for our customers, merchants, and courier partners, as well as delivering financial products to them.
The Fintech Group at Wolt is composed of 8 specialized teams, distributed across 3 subgroups, each developing a variety of products to support the entire lifecycle of our financial operations. These teams ensure the accurate distribution of funds to merchants and couriers, manage payments processing, and contribute to Wolt’s global expansion by securing essential payment licenses in new markets while ensuring compliance with local regulations.
As Director of Product for Fintech, you will play a key role in shaping the future of Wolt’s financial services. Working closely with local teams, you will develop a deep understanding of each market's unique financial environment and foster collaborative relationships with financial service providers to ensure smooth integration and alignment within Wolt’s product ecosystem.
In this role, you will work closely with a cross-functional team of engineers, designers, product managers, and other stakeholders. Your responsibilities will include setting a clear roadmap for fintech, defining a vision, and overseeing key product initiatives from inception to delivery. By collaborating with business, operations, and compliance teams, you will ensure that our financial solutions meet user needs, remain scalable, and comply with regulatory standards across all regions.
You could come to this role from a variety of different backgrounds, but ideally, you have:
Proven experience as a Director of Product or Head of Product, ideally in the fintech space or in other relevant industries – with a strong understanding of building and scaling products that meet diverse user needs, particularly in complex or highly regulated environments.
Experience working on complex financial systems and products – with a solid understanding of payment processing, financial compliance, and how to create secure, scalable solutions. Familiarity with payment gateways, regulatory frameworks, and designing financial services that ensure a high level of security and user experience is key.
A proven ability to support and develop a team of product managers – you’re experienced in helping product managers grow, taking ownership of their domains, and ensuring alignment across multiple product areas. You understand how to guide teams to keep the broader vision in focus while empowering them to lead in their own areas.
Excellent communication and collaboration skills – you are skilled at fostering alignment across cross-functional teams, including engineering, design, business, and compliance. Your ability to communicate a clear vision and build consensus is vital.
A strong mix of data-driven decision-making, technical understanding, and business insight – with the willingness to take full responsibility for your scope.
Experience working with and mentoring cross-functional teams – you have a deep understanding of how to coach and collaborate with diverse teams, including developers, finance experts, data experts, and engineers.
The position will be filled as soon as we find the right person, so make sure to apply as soon as you realize you really, really want to join us!
The compensation will be a negotiable combination of monthly pay and DoorDash RSUs. The latter makes it exceptionally easy to be excited about our company growing and doing well, as you’ll own a piece of the pie.
