Nium, Global Leader in Payments

Nium, the global leader in real-time, cross-border payments, was founded on the mission to deliver the global payments infrastructure of tomorrow, today. With the onset of the global economy, its payments infrastructure is shaping how banks, fintechs, and businesses everywhere collect, convert, and disburse funds instantly across borders.

Its payout network supports 100 currencies and spans 220+ markets, 100 of which in real-time. Funds can be disbursed to accounts, wallets, and cards and collected locally in 35 markets. Nium's growing card issuance business is already available in 34 countries. Nium holds regulatory licenses and authorizations in more than 40 countries, enabling seamless onboarding, rapid integration, and compliance – independent of geography.

The company is co-headquartered in San Francisco and Singapore.

We are hiring a Staff Product Manager, Payments to lead one of Nium's most strategic product areas: programmable account-to-account payments, with Direct Debit serving as the primary product focus.

Direct Debit at Nium is evolving beyond a traditional bank debit capability. It is becoming a programmable payments layer supporting recurring collections, wallet funding, third-party payment acceptance, treasury-first flows, and lower-cost alternatives to card payments.

This is as much a growth role as it is a product role. You will own product strategy, customer proposition, go‑to‑market execution, market expansion, and implementation quality needed to scale Direct Debit globally. Depending on experience and aptitude, this individual may also take ownership of adjacent payments products over time.

Account-to-account payments are being transformed by faster settlement networks, open banking, real-time payment infrastructure, and increasing demand for lower-cost local payment methods.

Nium is uniquely positioned to win in this space through our global licensing footprint, FX capabilities, settlement infrastructure, compliance framework, and enterprise customer base.
