Role Overview

Key Responsibilities 

Program & Delivery Management

• Own end-to-end project plans, including scope, timelines, dependencies, risks, and assumptions
• Coordinate dependencies across engineering, product, operations, compliance, legal, and external partners
• Identify delivery, operational, or compliance risks early and proactively propose mitigation strategies, clearly articulating tradeoffs and impacts

Cross-Functional Alignment & Communication

• Act as the primary source of truth for program status, decisions, and next steps
• Keep engineering and product leaders aligned through clear, consistent, and timely communication
• Translate between technical, product, and business contexts to ensure shared understanding
• Act as a neutral facilitator across teams to resolve ambiguity, align on decisions, and unblock progress
• Partner closely with the technical integration owner to ensure technical discovery, delivery sequencing, and readiness are aligned

Partner Operations, Compliance & Readiness 

• Partner with Compliance, Legal, and Operations to support:
  • Merchant onboarding and KYB processes
  • Customer KYC and KYT readiness
  • Geographic and currency expansion initiatives
• Coordinate partner requirements related to compliance, regulatory obligations, and contractual commitments
• Support partner invoicing workflows, operational readiness, and ongoing partner lifecycle management

• Clearly document agreements, decisions, operational requirements, and changes in scope or timelines
• Prepare and distribute concise meeting summaries with clear action items, owners, and deadlines

Execution Transparency & Reporting

• Track project metrics and delivery health across initiatives
• Prepare concise, high-signal weekly status updates for leadership and stakeholders
• Surface deviations from plan early, clearly communicating risks, options, and recommended actions
• Maintain continuity of context so teams are not revisiting or re-litigating prior decisions

Documentation & Process

• Own and organize program and partner documentation in Confluence and related tools
• Create and maintain clear written artifacts (plans, timelines, decision logs, summaries) that reduce ambiguity
• Drive execution discipline through clarity and alignment, not unnecessary process or bureaucracy

Leadership Support

• Support the COO, Director of Engineering, and Director of Product with planning materials, drafts, and follow-ups
• Prepare delivery and partner-readiness updates for broader company awareness and go-to-market readiness as needed
• Help ensure teams understand how delivery milestones connect to broader business objectives, GTM plans, and regulatory readiness

Required Qualifications & Experience

• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to synthesize complex technical and business information into clear, actionable guidance
• Proven experience leading technical programs, partner integrations, or cross-functional initiatives in close partnership with engineering and product teams
• Experience managing external vendors, partners or client-facing deliveries, with clear ownership of commitments and communication
• Strong organizational and problem-solving skills, with a structured, detail-oriented approach to planning and execution
• Solid understanding of software delivery lifecycles and the ability to work from technical documentation and API specifications
• Ability to operate independently, proactively surface risks, and drive issues to resolution

Nice to Have Experience

• Experience in fintech or crypto (plus, but not required)
• Background that includes hands-on exposure to technical delivery roles (e.g., project management, QA, business analysis, engineering, or technical support)
• Experience with partner onboarding and operational compliance processes, such as KYB, KYC, KYT, and geographic or currency expansion, preferably within crypto, digital assets, or regulated financial services
• Familiarity with applying AI tools and automation to enhance program execution, communication clarity, and operational efficiency
• Familiarity with modern delivery and collaboration tools, including Jira, Confluence, or similar platforms
