Job Description:

At Remitly, we believe everyone deserves the freedom to access, move, and manage their money wherever life takes them. Since 2011, we've tirelessly delivered on our promise to customers sending money globally, providing secure, simple, and reliable ways to manage their money, ensuring true peace of mind. Whether it's supporting loved ones back home, growing a business across continents, or pursuing new opportunities abroad, we're not just here to move money— we're here to move our global customers forward. We're looking for builders, reimaginers, and global thinkers who want to work at the intersection of technology, trust, and transformation. If that's you and you're ready to do the most meaningful work of your career—we invite you to join over 2,800 passionate Remitlians worldwide who are united by our vision to transform lives with trusted financial services that transcend borders.

About the Role:

As the Senior Product Manager for Payments Acceptance, you will own the strategy and execution to maximize payment success while minimizing costs across Remitly's global pay-in network. This is a highly visible, business-critical role that directly impacts how millions of customers fund their transfers every month.

You will strengthen the intelligence and performance of our payment orchestration systems — such as routing and authentication engines — to drive durable improvements in conversion, unit economics, and cost efficiency. Beyond technical optimization, you will evaluate and implement groundbreaking capabilities introduced by global payment players, from card schemes to payment gateways, supporting the creation of resilient, scalable systems that expand access, lower costs, and advance Remitly's mission to provide trusted financial services worldwide.

This role requires a visionary product leader who combines deep payments expertise with analytical rigor and an entrepreneurial mindset. You'll shape the strategy that determines how Remitly balances acceptance, cost, and risk, ensuring that our payments infrastructure remains world-class, efficient, and customer-centric.

You Will:

• Own the vision and roadmap for payments optimization, shaping how customers fund their remittances with greater reliability and affordability. Align cross-functional teams across Engineering, Analytics, Product, and Business Development to deliver durable improvements in both conversion and cost efficiency.
• Design and refine orchestration logic (e.g., partner selection, retries, ISO messaging) that makes every payment attempt smarter and more resilient, ensuring customers experience seamless, trustworthy transactions at global scale.
• Continuously monitor and optimize economics, partnering with Finance and Analytics to identify opportunities that improve unit economics while protecting the simplicity, transparency, and affordability customers expect.
• Drive innovation in payments infrastructure by bringing forward new technologies, providers, and methods that expand customer choice, reduce friction, and unlock faster, lower-cost ways to move money.
• Embed risk and compliance rigor so that every optimization strengthens customer trust — balancing high acceptance with robust fraud prevention and adherence to regulatory requirements in every market.
• Serve as a thought leader internally and externally, championing a vision of resilient, customer-first payment systems that enable Remitly to fulfill its promise of trusted financial access worldwide .

You Have:

• 7+ years of product management experience with a strong track record in payments, fintech, or money movement, ideally within companies that process payments through multiple partners in the same country, where optimization is critical.
• Proven success delivering high-scale, high-impact products, with measurable results on conversion, cost, or customer lifetime value.
• Analytical excellence, with deep experience modeling economics, evaluating trade-offs, and making data-driven decisions.
• Comfort working at the intersection of technical systems and business outcomes, collaborating closely with engineers to design scalable solutions.
• Entrepreneurial leadership: you set vision, rally teams, and deliver outcomes even in ambiguous environments.
• Strong knowledge of global payments trends, networks, and providers, with an eye toward innovation and continuous improvement.
