About Airwallex

Airwallex is the AI-native financial operating system for a real-time, intelligent economy. More than 675,000 businesses, including McLaren Racing, Qantas, SHEIN, and TikTok, use us, directly or through our platform partners, to run their financial operations or build and monetize financial products of their own.

We started in Melbourne in 2015 to build the infrastructure global commerce runs on. We're the regulated backbone behind global payments: not by accident, but by design. A decade plus, 85+ licenses, and a financial infrastructure spanning North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific.

We're co-headquartered in San Francisco and Singapore, with more than 2,700 people across 27 offices. We hire builders with founder-level energy, people who move fast with good judgment, dig in with real curiosity, and make calls from first principles rather than waiting to be told what to do. Read our operating principles to see it in full.

How you'll make impact

You'll lead Airwallex's global Card Issuing product strategy, turning complex card infrastructure and regulatory requirements into simple, scalable products for businesses, platforms and marketplaces.

Own Airwallex's global Card Issuing product strategy, solution design, technical roadmap and go-to-market execution across enterprise platforms, marketplaces and corporate spend use cases.

Lead the vision for a global card issuance platform spanning virtual and physical cards, digital wallet provisioning, spend controls, fraud prevention and real-time transaction processing connected to our multi-currency wallet.

Build developer-first APIs, webhooks and embedded SDKs or iframes that make card issuing simple to integrate, while balancing platform scalability, developer experience and commercial priorities.

Partner with card schemes, banking partners, BIN sponsors, card manufacturers, Engineering, Architecture, Design, Legal, Compliance, Risk and Commercial teams to expand global issuing coverage and navigate regulatory requirements.

Lead, mentor and grow a high-performing team of Product Managers, while acting as the company-wide subject matter expert on card issuing and embedded finance.

Own the product metrics that matter, including card transaction volume, interchange yield, API reliability and latency, activation rates and programme unit economics.

You'll work from our Singapore office, with an in-office working pattern.

10+ years of experience in Product Management, Technical Product Management or Software Engineering, with demonstrated experience in card issuing, payment processing or embedded finance.

Proven experience building and scaling developer-facing products, including RESTful APIs, webhooks or SDKs, and partnering closely with Engineering on distributed, high-availability transaction systems.

Outstanding communication and influencing skills, with the ability to translate complex scheme mechanics into clear strategies for executive leaders and technical teams.

A data-driven, first-principles approach to breaking down ambiguous business needs into executable product roadmaps.
