About the opportunity

At Littlepay, our passion is to make payment journeys effortless, both in-person via contactless and online via web and mobile checkouts. The Product team sits at the heart of achieving our ambitious vision and goals. We’re looking for a customer-focused, strategic Product Manager in Melbourne to work closely with our partners and merchants and internally with our technical and business stakeholders to help shape the future of transit payments.

As a custodian of the customer, you will work closely with our teams to identify new problems, initiate ideas, and deliver new and innovative solutions - from core payments processing to enable our transit merchants to seamlessly accept payments, to slick transaction and customer analytics solutions. You will also support integrations in and out of our platform, whether it be integrating partners, acquiring bank and payment network services.

Reporting to the Head of Product, you will act as the conduit between Product, Engineering, Operations, and Commercial to understand desired customer and stakeholder outcomes, gather requirements, and then articulate the required propositions and functionality that can be implemented in an agile manner.

Day to day, you’ll:

• Own and consistently maintain your product strategy, horizons and roadmap to ensure your portfolio maintains the competitive edge required to deliver consistent market value and ROI
• Continue to build a solid understanding of the transit payment market, operators, partners, merchants, and processing schemes.
• Work closely with partners, merchants and the Commercial team to identify gaps and opportunities to enhance our existing capabilities or build new ones.
• Analyse and communicate business insights to internal and external stakeholders
• Deliver required specifications, conduct feasibility studies, and produce designs/models where needed
• Work closely with engineering teams to write epics, technical user stories and acceptance criteria
• Do whatever it takes to make your product and team successful, whether that means hunting down the root cause of a user’s frustration or identifying an innovative solution that will delight them.
• Obsess both continuous product improvement and shipping new product features
• Be excited about scaling our products to help build a customer-driven product that will revolutionise digital commerce for transit.
• Collaborate with colleagues from other product areas, engineering, projects, and operations to drive and deliver successful outcomes and value.

Requirements

Ideally, you’ll have:

• Five years + of proven hands-on technical product development and management experience with significant payment industry exposure
• Deep understanding of the eCommerce landscape and the partialities associated with Checkout use cases
• An innate curiosity and desire to solve complex problems
• Solid technical knowledge, capable of exploring and understanding technical issues inclusive of APIs, SDKs, payment processing, fraud tooling and SCA regulatory requirements
• Strong understanding of alternate payment methods such as BNPL and A2A.
• Experience working in Agile teams running Kanban or Scrum while respecting the need for compliance (e.g., ISO, PCI-DSS)
• Good knowledge of tools such as JIRA, Lucid, Notion, QuickSight
• The ability to work under pressure, multitask and consistently meet tight deadlines
• Superb communication skills, analytical and problem-solving skills, and ability to interact with multidisciplinary stakeholders
• A bachelor’s degree in Business or Computer Science or a related technical field is advantageous

In-office expectations

At Littlepay, we believe great work happens when we solve problems, together. We see in-person collaboration as an important way to build connections, share ideas, and support each other meaningfully.

For those assigned to an office location, we generally expect a minimum two-day presence in the office each week. This may vary depending on your role, team, and location. For example, our team in Luxembourg works 100% from the office, whereas our AU and UK teams currently work a minimum of 2 days onsite in our Melbourne/London offices. Some positions might require more frequent office attendance to support cross-functional collaboration, customer engagement, or specific team workflows. Your hiring manager will provide details relevant to your role.

We aim to strike a healthy balance between in-person connection and flexibility, while staying connected to deliver with speed and agility as we continue to scale, ensuring our ways of working support both our people and our shared ambition to move more people through better payment experiences.

Our recruitment process

If you’ve been shortlisted for the role, you’ll first have a chat with our Talent team, who will set up an interview if the stars align. A short workplace preferences questionnaire will also be sent to help us learn more about the way you prefer to work. Following a successful first interview, you’ll meet with a second set of Littlepay folks, and be invited to participate in the final stage before being presented with an offer.

If you have any questions regarding the recruitment process or if you require any accommodations for any stage in the interview process, please don’t hesitate to let us know. Additionally, if you don’t meet all of the criteria (we know that some underrepresented groups tend to avoid applying if they don’t), please still apply. We really enjoy meeting people who might bring a fresh perspective on a problem we need to solve!

Ultimately, being part of our small but mighty team means you'll have the opportunity to learn about micropayments, and have a hand in the provision of services that impact millions of people. You’ll help us deliver on our revolutionary product roadmap and help scale our platform as we continue to expand across the globe.

If this opportunity interests you, hit apply! We look forward to learning about you.
