This role sits within Deel’s Fintech Client Experience group and owns the end-to-end product experience for how clients pay Deel.

You will be responsible for everything a client touches on the front-end of payments, from adding and managing payment methods, to paying invoices, configuring automatic payments, managing permissions, and understanding fees, FX, and payment status.

This is a high-impact Staff Product Manager role operating at the intersection of UX, payments, permissions, and complex financial systems. You’ll work closely with multiple fintech and platform teams to deliver simple, trustworthy payment experiences on top of sophisticated backend infrastructure.

What you’ll own

You will own the client-facing payment journey across Deel’s web and platform surfaces, including:

• The end-to-end client payment journey, from setup to successful payment handoff
• Payment setup and configuration (cards, bank transfers, billing details, autopay)
• Payment permissions and roles (who can pay, approve payments, or change methods)
• Automatic and recurring payment flows
• Visibility and clarity around payment status, receipts, overdue invoices, FX, and processing fees

Your scope typically:

• Starts when a client adds a payment method or an invoice becomes payable
• Ends once the payment is successfully handed off to the payment orchestration engine

Issues requiring deeper backend handling are escalated to partner teams such as Treasury, PSPs, or Credit Control — with you ensuring the client experience remains clear and coherent.

Typical problem spaces you’ll tackle

You’ll design and improve product experiences that help clients:

• Understand and resolve failed or declined payments, with clear root-cause explanations and next steps
• Gain confidence in payment status and invoice reconciliation
• See which payment method (card or bank account) was used for a given transaction
• Set up, manage, and trust automatic and recurring payments
• Navigate payment permissions and approval flows with clarity around access and roles
• Understand FX rates, processing fees, and charges with transparent, predictable explanations

Your goal is to ensure these questions are answered proactively in-product, reducing confusion, support dependency, and friction at critical payment moments.

How you’ll work

This role is highly cross-functional. You’ll partner closely with teams across:

• Payment Orchestration & Automation
• PSP Integrations & Routing
• Credit Control & Invoicing
• Wallets & Transactions
• Treasury & Payroll
• FinCrime Compliance (verification and compliance-related flows)
• Support Operations (escalations and ticket flows)

You’ll operate as a senior individual contributor who can shape strategy, define clear ownership boundaries, and drive alignment across teams — while staying deeply connected to execution.

What success looks like

• Clear, intuitive, and reliable payment flows for clients
• Fewer failed, confusing, or opaque payment experiences
• Strong self-serve payment setup and management
• Reduced payment-related support tickets and escalations
• High client trust in Deel’s financial UX at global scale

What we’re looking for

• Proven experience as a Senior or Staff Product Manager in B2B SaaS or fintech environments
• Strong product judgment in complex, regulated, or money-moving systems
• Experience owning client-facing workflows built on top of sophisticated backend platforms
• Deep empathy for user experience, paired with the ability to reason about technical and operational constraints
• Comfort operating in ambiguous problem spaces and driving clarity across multiple stakeholders
• Ability to influence without authority and lead through collaboration

Nice to have (not required)

• Experience working on native mobile applications alongside web platforms
• Exposure to payments, billing, invoicing, or financial operations products

Why this role matters

Payments are one of the most trust-sensitive moments in Deel’s product. This role directly shapes how clients experience money movement — not just whether payments work, but whether they feel clear, predictable, and trustworthy at scale.

If you enjoy solving complex financial problems through elegant product design and want to work on systems that move real money for global businesses, this role will give you both impact and ownership.
