Обязанности
- We're hiring a Payments Operations Lead in New York to build and own payment operations as brings payments in-house. This is a founding role on a new team, reporting to the VP of Finance.
- is moving billions of dollars of gross payment volume onto our own rails. You'll own how that money moves and how it's protected: reconciliation, disputes, reserves, fraud, and merchant risk. Our volume is ACH-first with a growing card share, and our merchants are few, large, and high-value, so the work rewards precision over throughput.
- You'll set the standard for how runs payments, not maintain one someone else already built.
Требования
- Systems and Strategy Builder. You ask “what happens when a merchant goes bankrupt” before it happens, and architect for it ahead of time, rather than running the fire drill well. You think in terms of how systems scale and where the pressure points will be.
- Sound Under Real Stakes. You’ve made the call on a reserve, a reconciliation break, or a fraud exception where being wrong cost real money — and you can explain why you made it.
- Cross-Functional Range. You can read a payments addendum and a webhook payload in the same afternoon, and change Legal’s or Engineering’s mind when you’re right.
- Builder Mentality. You’re energized by early-stage environments where processes are still being written and your impact is visible.
- Metrics-Driven. You set thresholds, track KPIs (chargeback rates, reconciliation breaks, reserve adequacy, false positive rates), and make decisions based on data, not hunches. You know what good looks like and can measure it.
- High Ownership. You bring energy, accountability, and a bias toward action — especially when things are moving fast.

- Build the function Choose the systems, define the architecture, and hire the team that comes after you. You decide what we build versus buy.

- Experience standing up or scaling merchant-facing dispute self-service is a plus
- Experience supporting a live acquirer migration affecting real merchant volume is a plus
