• Strong understanding of payments infrastructure, payment methods, network rules, or merchant payment flows, with experience working closely with Product and Engineering teams.

• Excellent organizational skills and a structured approach to planning, execution, risk management, and follow‑through.
• Experience supporting launches or changes involving compliance, product, legal, or partner considerations is a plus.
