We are looking for a Payment Product Manager to grow our in-house payment platform, taking hands-on ownership of routing, cascading, and Approval Rate optimization from day one. This is a rare chance to dive deep into a critical product area inside a profitable, established company that already connects millions of users across Tier-1 markets in social networking and streaming, and now needs payments infrastructure that matches that scale. You will step into a role with real autonomy and zero legacy code to untangle, working hands-on with a senior backend developer to turn business needs into a platform built for high-load, high-transaction-volume systems. If you want to fully own the product side of payments, drive measurable revenue impact, and grow without micromanagement, this is your opportunity
About our product: We have created an international web platform that's genuinely changing how people connect in Tier-1 markets: 1 million users across the USA, Canada, and UK trust us for meaningful relationships that go beyond surface-level matching! Since 2020, we have been the platform for people seeking real connections. Our users enjoy 24/7 communication, seamless content sharing, and a completely ad-free experience. We have found our sweet spot in performance and intuitive design that keeps people engaged and actually connecting with each other. So, you will be part of an ambitious journey toward our clear goal: becoming one of the Top-5 international social networking platforms globally
