Role Overview

Own the international expansion roadmap for Merchant Central, phased by market: Canada first, then UK/EU, then determine what comes next.
Lead the integration of new strategic processors into Merchant Central from end to end—partner with Engineering on API specs, boarding flows, processor-specific configurations, local payment methods, and reconciliation
Research and document market requirements for each new geography: local payment methods, regulatory constraints, currency, language (ex French for Quebec), data residency, and compliance frameworks
Write detailed user stories, acceptance criteria, and bug reports for the delivery team—you own delivery and strategy
Manage the product backlog: groom, prioritize, and sequence work to keep the team moving with clarity on scope and dependencies
Run or actively participate in sprint ceremonies: planning, review, retrospectives; own delivery visibility for your roadmap
Define the go-to-market approach for each market launch: positioning, partner messaging, launch readiness checklist, and sales/channel enablement
Partner with Product Marketing to develop external-facing content and messaging for new geographies—you understand what makes Canada (or the UK) different and you help us say it clearly
Build competitive intelligence for each target market: who are the incumbents, what do ISOs and ISVs expect, and where does NMI have a differentiated angle
Partner with Legal, Compliance, and Finance on local licensing, data privacy (PIPEDA in Canada, GDPR in EU), tax treatment, and operational requirements
Define and track success metrics for each market launch: partner adoption, merchant volume, onboarding completion rates, and product utilization by geo
Use AI tools actively—market research, requirement synthesis, competitive analysis, documentation drafting—and bring that speed to your workflow

Requirements

5+ years in product management with at least 3 years in payments, fintech, or B2B SaaS
Demonstrated experience taking a product into a new market or geography—you've done the research, built the requirements, and seen a market launch through to adoption
Hands-on product owner experience: you write user stories and acceptance criteria (or use AI to do so), manage Jira backlogs, and stay close to engineering through delivery
Strong understanding of payment localization: local payment methods, processor integrations, currency handling, regulatory compliance, and operational differences by market
GTM instincts: you've supported or led a product launch in a new market, contributed to positioning or messaging, and understand what it takes to enable a sales or channel team in an unfamiliar geography
Comfort operating in ambiguity—this market and this roadmap are being built; you don't need a finished blueprint to start
Data-driven: you define success metrics before you build and you use data to evaluate what's working
Excellent written communicator: your stories are clear, your requirements leave no room for interpretation, and your stakeholder updates are concise
Fluent with AI tools for product work—market research, spec drafting, synthesis, analysis
