• Launch & Customer Enablement: Own customer onboarding, integration support, and implementation guides, partnering with engineering to deliver clear API documentation and developer tools
• Data & Performance: Define and track platform KPIs: network integration cycle time, feature adoption rate across customers, API/webhook reliability (uptime, latency, error rate), and network SLA compliance, and write custom SQL queries to analyze usage patterns and inform product decisions

Requirements:

• 7+ years in product management or digital product development with a strong focus on launching B2B platforms, developer APIs, or payments infrastructure
• Ability to read network specifications, debate trade-offs with engineers, and design APIs/webhooks that scale smoothly
• Hands-on with data and comfortable writing SQL queries to pull usage metrics, track adoption, and defend product decisions
• A detail-oriented problem solver who thrives in fast-paced environments, leading execution even when scope or priorities are still evolving
• Experience with tokenization, payment processing, cryptology, or security products
• BA/BS degree
