About this role

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.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Essentials

• 7+ years of product management experience owning complex, multi-surface products end to end, including platforms, marketplaces, or productivity tools.

• Experience building or launching early-stage products in high-ambiguity environments, with a clear builder mindset.

• Hands-on experience building and shipping AI/LLM-powered products, with strong technical fluency in how modern ML systems are trained, evaluated, deployed, and monitored.

• A data-driven, growth-oriented approach, with strong analytical rigour and experience using dashboards, SQL, or product analytics tools.

• A track record of running experiments, such as A/B tests, to improve activation, adoption, or retention.

• Strong stakeholder management skills and the ability to align Engineering, Data, Design, Operations, Customer Support, and GTM partners around strategy, roadmap, and execution.

• Experience mentoring and leading Product Managers.

Preferred

• Experience in fintech, payments, treasury, cards, or B2B financial operations, including working within compliance, risk, or role-based access constraints.

• Experience building growth, lifecycle, or Product-Led Growth products, such as in-product nudges, rewards, cross-sell systems, or lifecycle automation.

• A technical background or previous experience in AI/ML, data science, or engineering.

• Experience building customer service or support automation, including bots, self-serve flows, or deflection journeys.

YOU'LL THRIVE HERE IF

• You're comfortable owning the roadmap yourself.

• You own the outcome and you don't wait for permission to fix what's broken.

• You're comfortable making decisions with incomplete information and moving quickly anyway.

• You're not precious about your ideas. You push hard for what you believe in, but you pivot fast when the data says otherwise.

• You communicate clearly and directly across cultures, and you're thoughtful about how context shifts meaning across borders.

• You know when to align and when to just decide. Collaboration isn't a way to avoid accountability.

• You connect dots across functions and hold the big picture without losing grip on the details.

• You come to the table with a point of view, not just a problem.
