Global Payroll is the hardest problem in HR Tech. It is a tangled web of local tax laws, statutory filings, varying banking rails, and strict compliance deadlines.
We are looking for a Principal Product Manager to lead a 0-to-1 initiative within our Global Payroll vertical. You will not be maintaining a legacy system; you will be architecting the foundational rails of a new payroll engine designed to scale across dozens of countries simultaneously.
You will own the "gross-to-net" logic, the compliance framework, and the core infrastructure that ensures thousands of employees around the world get paid correctly and on time, every time. This is a high-impact role for a creative problem-solver with a deep customer obsession and a strong bias for action. You will be a champion for the user, a strategic thinker, and a hands-on executor.
Product Strategy & Roadmap: Own the product roadmap for payroll compliance, translating business goals and customer needs into a clear, compelling vision.
Customer-Centric Development: Immerse yourself in the world of our users (employers and employees). Conduct user research, analyze data, and synthesize insights to identify pain points and opportunities.
Feature Definition & Prioritization: Write detailed product requirements, user stories, and acceptance criteria. Prioritize the backlog to ensure the team is always working on the most impactful features.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with engineering, design, legal, and operations to bring products to market. Act as a clear communicator, aligning stakeholders and ensuring a shared understanding of the product vision.
Execution & Delivery: Work in an agile environment, leading the product development lifecycle from ideation to launch and post-launch analysis.
Data-Driven Decisions: Define and analyze metrics to measure the success of your products. Use data to inform decisions and drive continuous improvement.
Compliance & Regulation: Stay abreast of global payroll regulations and industry trends. Translate complex legal and compliance requirements into user-friendly product solutions.
12+ years of Product Management experience, with at least 5+ years in Fintech, Payroll, or HR Tech.
Proven 0-to-1 experience: You have launched a complex B2B product from scratch. You are comfortable starting with a blank sheet of paper.
Direct experience delivering core payroll functionalities and an understanding of the end-to-end payroll process.
Experience with complex backend systems. You are not afraid of APIs, data mapping, or integration logic.
Experience in building both employer and employee experiences is essential. You understand the unique needs of both personas.
A strong design thinker with the ability to approach problems from first principles. You are comfortable challenging assumptions and creating innovative solutions.
Deep customer obsession is in your DNA. You are a natural at understanding user needs and advocating for them.
A strong experiment mindset with a bias towards learning and iterating. You're not afraid to be wrong and you use data to validate hypotheses.
