With 20 offices across six continents and London as our HQ, we’re shaping the future of fintech – and we’re just getting started. Own Checkout.com's vision on becoming the system of record for payment credentials, independent of acquiring. The Vault holds billions of stored instruments; the Forward API is how they reach any endpoint - and the forward-first connector backbone of our orchestration platform, reaching any processor without their cooperation.
Product, infrastructure, and commercial ownership in one role, including pricing - scope almost no PSP gives its PMs.
Network tokens and account updater sit with a partner team - one credential story, run on a shared scorecard (credential freshness, network-token penetration, auth uplift).
You'll own
-
Vault: core primitives (instruments, tokens, metadata), PCI DSS posture, and standalone Vault for merchants who don't process with us
-
Forward API: credential forwarding end to end - expand beyond PSP fallback into fraud tools, 3DS, loyalty, and migrations, with reliability and latency SLAs on the critical payment path
-
Portability and migration: contractual token export as a sellable feature - our answer to lock-in in enterprise RFPs - and import tooling at scale to win credentials from other vaults
-
Commercial: pricing, packaging, billing, and the metrics that matter - instruments stored, standalone adoption, forward volume, credential revenue
-
GTM: positioning and sales enablement, including when to sell Forward API vs orchestration
You'll bring
-
5+ years in product, 3+ in payments - and you've built or owned a payment vault, tokenization platform, network token service, or card-on-file infrastructure
-
Deep tokenisation and PCI DSS knowledge; fluent with developer-facing APIs
-
Commercial ownership experience: pricing, P&L inputs, a number you were accountable for
Bonus:
