You’ll coordinate cross-functional workstreams, drive payment product launches, and serve as an operational anchor for a team navigating complex regulatory requirements, bank partner relationships, and evolving card network rules. Your role will involve managing competing priorities with precision, translating compliance obligations into actionable project plans, and partnering with product, engineering, risk, and finance stakeholders to deliver results.

• Coordinate cross-functional workstreams across product, engineering, compliance, legal, and bank partners to ensure payment projects are delivered on time, within scope, and in alignment with regulatory requirements.
• Translate payment compliance obligations—including BSA/AML requirements, card network operating rules, Reg E, and money transmission regulations—into structured project plans with clear milestones, owners, and tracking.
• Monitor payment operations performance metrics, identify process gaps, escalate risks, and drive continuous improvement across AR and AP payment workflows.

• Five (5) or more years of project management experience, with a track record of managing complex, multi-stakeholder initiatives in a regulated environment
• Working knowledge of payment compliance frameworks, including BSA/AML, NACHA operating rules, card network rules (Visa/Mastercard), and applicable federal regulations (Reg E, Reg Z)
• Exceptional planning and organizational skills, including the ability to build and maintain project plans, track deliverables across parallel workstreams, and communicate status clearly to leadership
• Experience supporting or executing payment product roadmap initiatives, including new payment method launches, risk control implementations, or bank/processor onboarding
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to identify risk, evaluate trade-offs, and drive resolution across operational and compliance issues
• Comfort working with payment data, operations reporting, and tools such as Excel, project management platforms (e.g., Jira, Asana, or similar), and internal workflow systems; SQL familiarity a plus
• Familiarity with the property management industry and/or proptech payments landscape, including rent collection, HOA payments, or property bill pay
• Thinks and acts strategically by connecting operational details to broader business objectives, anticipating downstream implications of payment decisions, and recommending process or policy improvements
• Proven independent sound decision making and problem solving skills
