How you’ll make an impact here – and on your career:  Product management at Versapay is a craft that blends strategic thinking, customer empathy, and strong execution. As Senior Product Manager, Payments, you will own the end-to-end payments product and experience, from customer-facing workflows through underlying processing, settlement, and partner integrations.  In this role, you will be accountable for the vision, strategy, and delivery of our payments capabilities, with a particular focus on our payment processing gateway and broader payments ecosystem. You will operate with a holistic mindset—owning outcomes across reliability, usability, scalability, and commercial performance—rather than isolated features.  This role pairs deep payments domain ownership with modern product management practices. You will lead end-to-end product development, drive customer and business value through data-informed decisions, and collaborate across engineering, design, and go-to-market teams to deliver scalable, reliable, and innovative payments experiences. You will also regularly represent the payments product strategy and performance to senior leadership, influencing direction and investment decisions.  This is an opportunity for a product leader who thrives in complexity, is energized by ambiguity, and is excited to help grow and modernize a global payments platform.  What you'll do:
