Product Manager (Delivery) - Fintech, Payroll

About Stape

Stape is a global payroll and Contractor-of-Record platform helping companies hire, manage, and pay contractors worldwide - compliantly, on time, and at scale.

We operate at the intersection of FinTech, HRTech, and ComplianceTech, serving fast-growing startups and global teams across the US, EU, MENA, and LATAM. Our platform covers contracts, payroll, payouts, compliance, FX, and multi-rail payments in highly regulated, cross-border environments.

Your Mission

As a Product Manager at Stape, your mission is to turn complex business, compliance, and customer needs into shipped product — owning requirements, leading delivery, and ensuring every release works reliably in global, regulated markets.

This is a delivery-first role with strong ownership across discovery, business requirements, execution, and outcomes.

What You’ll Do

Product Delivery & Execution (Primary Focus)

• Own end-to-end delivery from idea to production

• Define clear business and functional requirements for engineering

• Translate regulatory, operational, and customer needs into executable scopes

• Prioritize backlog, plan sprints, and ensure predictable delivery

• Make trade-offs between speed, compliance, and technical quality

Product Leadership (Development Team)

• Act as product lead for the development team

• Set clear priorities, goals, and success metrics

• Unblock decisions and keep delivery moving

• Partner with tech leads to balance product goals and technical constraints

Discovery & Product Thinking

• Work directly with customers (HR, Founders, CFOs, Ops) to understand problems

• Validate solutions using feedback and data

• Use product analytics and funnel metrics to improve conversion and activation

• Turn complex global payroll requirements into intuitive experiences

Stakeholder Collaboration

• Partner with Engineering, Design, Compliance, Finance, and Customer Success

• Align stakeholders on priorities, timelines, and trade-offs

• Communicate progress, risks, and decisions clearly

Product Quality & Trust

• Own usability, reliability, and trust in financial and HR flows

• Ensure compliance, auditability, and correctness across regions

• Anticipate edge cases and failure scenarios

What We’re Looking For

• Experience working with distributed teams

• Excellent written and verbal communication in English

Big Plus

• Experience with global payroll, workforce management, or compliance-heavy platforms

• Exposure to tax, labor law, KYC/KYB, and payment regulations

• Startup or scale-up experience

• Familiarity with multi-currency and cross-border payout systems

Why Join Stape

• Build a global HRTech + FinTech platform with real-world complexity
