Job description

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 Team

The payroll team owns product strategy for how customers set up and run payroll across Deel’s platform. We’re not building from scratch—we’re expanding into new markets and deepening existing ones, solving the challenge of making localized payroll work at scale.

Our customers range from startups running their first payroll to enterprises managing payroll across dozens of jurisdictions. You’ll collaborate with strong technical leadership, compliance experts, and engineering teams in an environment where speed and judgment compound rapidly.

Team Mission

Enable customers to run compliant, accurate payroll in any market while maintaining the precision and rigor that payroll demands.

Summary

As a Senior Product Manager, you will own the product strategy, roadmap, and execution for Ireland payroll. We’re at version 0.5—product built, market testing underway—and you’ll be the person shaping what comes next. You’ll work cross-functionally with engineering, compliance, and go-to-market partners to expand capabilities and solve real customer problems. You’ll balance strategic vision with pragmatic execution in a high-velocity environment where you make decisions with incomplete information and course-correct as you learn.

Responsibilities

• Build and own a clear product vision and strategy for Ireland payroll. Communicate that vision upward, laterally, and into the execution team with conviction.
• Drive the full product development lifecycle, from problem definition through design, engineering collaboration, launch, and measurement, with a bias toward shipping impact quickly.
• Own the Ireland payroll expansion strategy. Define what features, automation, and compliance logic Ireland payroll needs next. Understand employment law, statutory deductions, and tax logic well enough to spot edge cases before engineering does.
• Collaborate with engineering leadership and technical teams to navigate complex trade-offs between handling customer variation, maintaining compliance, and moving fast.
• Work cross-functionally to align on shared requirements. Surface where one domain’s decisions cascade into another’s complexity.
• Synthesize customer escalations and edge cases to identify patterns. Use those patterns to decide what needs automation, what needs configuration, and what needs human review.
• Manage in ambiguity and high-velocity contexts. Make decisions with incomplete information. Communicate uncertainty clearly. Course-correct quickly as you learn.
• Partner with go-to-market and customer success teams to understand customer needs, gather feedback, and ensure product-market fit.

Qualifications

• Minimum 5+ years of product management experience in fast-paced, high-complexity environments. Fintech, regulated industries, or infrastructure-heavy products strongly preferred.
• Proven payroll experience. You’ve built payroll engines, managed payroll implementations, or owned payroll product decisions. Any country acceptable—the skill is transferable. You need real payroll knowledge, not a blank slate.
• Strong systems and process thinking. Comfortable with problems that have interconnected parts, multiple stakeholders, and ambiguous solutions.
• Pragmatic mindset. Able to identify which problems need perfect solutions and which need “good enough.” Comfortable making trade-offs with conviction.
• Independent and autonomous leader. Thrive owning strategy and execution in less-structured environments. Escalate decisions but don’t wait for perfect information.
• Technical credibility. Understand engineering constraints. Collaborate effectively with technical leaders. Own product‑engineering trade‑offs. Coding not required.
• Comfort with velocity and ambiguity. Energized by high-speed environments where priorities shift and you’re expected to move fast while staying rigorous on compliance and quality.
