The Technical Product Manager owns the technical health and delivery readiness of the payments product backlog. This person works at the intersection of systems analysis, engineering, architecture, and operations — grooming stories to a build-ready state, defining and enforcing non-functional requirements, and serving as the escalation point for technical trade-offs across the platform.
Key Responsibilities:- Groom technical user stories in partnership with Systems Analysts, and streamline the technical backlog.
- Identify and set sprint cadence, and ensure backlog items are build-ready (clear scope, dependencies, and NFRs defined).
- Coordinate with the SQA team on performance and load testing.
- Define and track product success metrics: adoption, reliability, scalability, and cost efficiency.
- Own the implementation of non-functional requirements in partnership with Engineering:
- Performance
- Security
- Resiliency
- Observability
- Act as the escalation point for technical trade-off decisions.
- Partner with Architects to prevent platform fragmentation.
- Partner with the Technical Product Owner and Engineering to define the Definition of Ready (DoR) and Definition of Done (DoD), and to confirm stories are technically feasible before sprint commitment.
- Partner with Operations to:
- Ensure regulatory and risk considerations are built into product design.
- Validate auditability, logging, and controls.
- Support UAT and SIT readiness.
- Own production readiness and post-release stabilization.
Priority is given to candidates who have demonstrated experience working closely with engineering, architecture, operations, and QA teams in an agile product delivery environment. Hands-on experience in the following areas is particularly valuable
Payments Platforms & Domain- Payment processing platforms such as Finastra, FIS, or Volante.
- APIs, wire transfers, and real-time payments (RTP).
- Deep technical and analyst experience within the B2B payments domain, including Wire / RTP.
- OFAC screening — Fircosoft.
- AML / BSA regulatory frameworks.
- Regulatory and risk considerations embedded in product design.
- Resiliency and observability.
- Performance and load-testing collaboration with SQA.
- Agile delivery, DoR / DoD discipline, and sprint planning.
