Job description

Lithic is the modern card issuing and processing platform empowering ambitious financial companies to build the future of payments.

Our infrastructure powers card programs for 100+ innovative clients, from fintechs reimagining credit and digital banking to platforms transforming disbursements and spend management. Companies like Mercury, Flex, and Novo rely on Lithic's developer-friendly APIs, direct network connections, and flawless reconciliation to launch and scale card programs in weeks, not years.

We're building a future where access to better financial products materially improves people's lives, free from the constraints of 30-year-old mainframes and legacy processors. We're proud to be backed by world‑class investors who share that vision, including Bessemer Venture Partners, Index Ventures, Spark Capital, Stripes, and Mastercard, along with many others.

We're a team of 160+ across 26 states and 7 countries, headquartered in New York City. Our values (Customer Centricity, Deliver Excellence, Act Like an Owner, Iterate Iterate Iterate, Teach Others, and Be a Good Neighbor) shape how we work and grow as a team.

We are seeking a Product Delivery Specialist to join Lithic’s team. In this role, you will lead complex customer implementations, drive operational excellence, and develop scalable processes that enable billions in transactions for the most innovative fintechs and digital banks.

This position offers a unique venue across our business from product and engineering to compliance and operations allowing you to tackle meaningful challenges while making a tangible impact.

In this role, you will coordinate a wide range of activities from implementing customer requirements and configuring the software to conducting technical setup and integration support with the ultimate goal of getting the customer’s solution live as quickly as possible, driving fast Time to Revenue (TTR) and provide great customer experience. You will operate at the intersection of our customers, internal teams, and third‑party partners, executing progress across multiple project streams simultaneously. You will launch new programs, ensure successful delivery of complex implementations, and build the foundation for deep, long‑lasting customer relationships. This role blends customer‑facing responsibilities with operational ownership, giving you the opportunity to optimize key workflows, coordinate across customers, partners, and deliver results at scale.

What You’ll Do

• Drive full‑cycle customer implementations, coordinating requirements, configurations, integrations to deliver solutions on time, maximize TTR, and delight customers.
• Actively drive implementation progress by removing blockers, executing project plans, and delivering results efficiently, with a strong bias toward action and outcomes.
• Proactively evaluate customer challenges and risks, applying problem‑solving skills to remove barriers and work cross‑functionally to optimize the integration.
• Execute and support technical deliverables and integrations with our network and issuer partners.
• Provide domain expertise and insights to guide internal decision‑making and identify opportunities for process improvements.
• Develop deep expertise in card issuance and processing, becoming a trusted advisor to both customers, partners, and internal teams.
• Build strong, lasting relationships with customers and serve as their trusted advisor.
• Become a Lithic product expert, capable of demonstrating and articulating the capabilities of our platform with confidence and clarity.

Qualifications

• Proven track record in Program Management, Technical Implementations, Solutions Architecture, or comparable customer‑facing roles, successfully delivering complex, multi‑layered technology solutions.
• 3–5 years of experience in FinTech, particularly in payments, card issuance, or financial services technologies.
• Excellent communication skills: able to translate technical information into clear business language to various stakeholders.
• Strong presentation skills: comfortable and confident presenting to both internal and external, technical and non‑technical stakeholders.
• Strong product sense, concept explanation, and technical acumen: familiarity with APIs and technical concepts.
• Strong project/program management experience: proven track record managing complex projects with multiple stakeholders, identifying risks, and ensuring progress toward measurable results.
• Understanding of system integrations and technical concepts, with the ability to translate them into clear, actionable insights for customers.
• Customer‑focused mindset: passionate about solving problems and delivering exceptional experiences.
• Collaborate effectively across engineering, product, and partnership teams to deliver high‑impact integrations and solutions.
• Experience working in a startup or fast‑paced, high‑growth environment, comfortable navigating ambiguity and driving results.

The annual US salary range for this role is $95,000 - $140,000 plus equity. This salary range may be inclusive of several career levels at Lithic and will be narrowed during the interview process based on the candidate’s experience and qualifications.

Benefits for Full‑Time US Employees:

• Unlimited PTO
• 12‑weeks fully paid parental leave
• 4‑Week Fully Paid Sabbatical (earned at your 5‑year anniversary)
• Work From Anywhere: work from anywhere in the world 4‑weeks each year
