Who We Are Is What We Do.

Deel is the all-in-one payroll and HR platform for global teams. Our vision is to unlock global opportunity for every person, team, and business. Built for the way the world works today, Deel combines HRIS, payroll, compliance, benefits, performance, and equipment management into one seamless platform. With AI-powered tools and a fully owned payroll infrastructure, Deel supports every worker type in 150+ countries—helping businesses scale smarter, faster, and more compliantly.

Among the largest globally distributed companies in the world, our team of 7,000 spans more than 100 countries, speaks 74 languages, and brings a connected and dynamic culture that drives continuous learning and innovation for our customers.

Why should you be part of our success story?

As the fastest-growing Software as a Service (SaaS) company in history, Deel is transforming how global talent connects with world-class companies – breaking down borders that have traditionally limited both hiring and career opportunities. We're not just building software; we're creating the infrastructure for the future of work, enabling a more diverse and inclusive global economy. In 2024 alone, we paid $11.2 billion to workers in nearly 100 currencies and provided healthcare and benefits to workers in 109 countries—ensuring people get paid and protected, no matter where they are.

Our momentum is reflected in our achievements and customer satisfaction: CNBC Disruptor 50, Forbes Cloud 100, Deloitte Fast 500, and repeated recognition on Y Combinator's top companies list – all while maintaining a 4.83 average rating from 15,000 reviews across G2, Trustpilot, Captera, Apple and Google.

Your experience at Deel will be a career accelerator. At the forefront of the global work revolution, you'll tackle complex challenges that impact millions of people's working lives. With our momentum—backed by a $17.3 billion valuation and $1 B in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) in just over five years—you'll drive meaningful impact while building expertise that makes you a sought-after leader in the transformation of global work.

About The Role

You are the ultimate problem-solver at the heart of our Payroll teams. Sitting at the intersection of product, engineering, operations, and Go-To-Market (GTM), you own the end-to-end operational lifecycle across 10+ product teams.

This is an owner role that demands resourcefulness, the ability to juggle competing demands, and the discipline to know the difference between moving paperwork and actually solving problems. You will take total accountability for complex challenges, driving them from initial friction to final resolution. Operating autonomously across global time zones, you are the crucial connective tissue that ensures what our customers need is exactly what our engineers build.

If you thrive in high-velocity environments, love distilling chaos into clarity, and have a relentless bias for action, this is the role for you.

What You'll Do

• Own the product signal end-to-end: Transform raw feedback and friction from operations and customers into clear, prioritized, and actionable insights for Product Managers. You uncover what truly matters, validate the "why," and drive the prioritization of impactful solutions.
• Orchestrate global execution: You are the critical connector between distributed Product, Engineering, and GTM teams. When PMs and engineers are in different time zones, you step in to scope work, answer questions, unblock decisions, and maintain momentum. You also ensure GTM teams are fully equipped to launch, sell, and support what ships.
• Be the ultimate problem-solver: When a process breaks or a product stalls, you don't just hand it off and disappear. You dig deep to uncover the root cause - whether it’s a product gap, a documentation issue, or a systemic limitation - and you own the solution from discovery to implementation.
• Navigate and simplify complexity: You will manage competing demands coming from all directions. You excel at taking that volume, structuring the details, prioritizing ruthlessly, and taking decisive action. You don't wait for permission to move; you make informed calls and drive progress.

What We're Looking For

• 4+ years of experience in fast-paced, high-scale environments (Series A/B/C startups or equivalent-pace tech organizations), with a proven track record of moving quickly and juggling competing priorities.
• End-to-end ownership mentality: You have successfully operated in the space between product and ops. You can translate the distinct languages and priorities of different teams, and you know how to separate true product signals from operational noise.
• Relentless resourcefulness: When you hit a roadblock, you find a way around it. You are highly comfortable context-switching between a customer escalation, an engineering sync, and deep-dive data analysis.
• Autonomous decision-making: You are a natural problem-solver who can dig into complex issues, form a strong point of view, and make the right calls. You know exactly what is yours to decide and what requires escalation.
• Data-driven approach: You possess a strong analytical foundation. You can pull your own data, extract meaningful insights, and use them to drive product enhancements and prioritization. You are highly comfortable with spreadsheets, dashboards, and core operational analytics.
• Precision communication: You write and speak with clarity and impact. You easily adapt your communication style depending on whether you are talking to engineers, PMs, customers, or leadership.
• Sharp product sense: You deeply understand how software is built and shipped. While you don't need to be a PM, you understand what is technically possible, how to accurately answer scoping questions, and how to spot when an initiative is off-track.
