Job description

Who we are

About Bridge

We're creating an entirely new payments platform, built with stablecoins, to simplify global money movement. Bridge enables faster, cheaper payments and borderless access to dollars via stablecoins. Through our APIs, businesses can send and receive funds across borders faster and cheaper vs. SWIFT and other fiat-only rails. Our virtual accounts enable international consumers and businesses to easily access, store, and spend US dollars. Our payouts infrastructure enables platforms to disburse USD to anyone globally. We believe many trillions of dollars will move and settle through stablecoin payment rails. Bridge is pulling this future forward.

We have a small team of people who have previously built financial infrastructure at some of the world's leading companies (Coinbase, Stripe, Square, Brex, Upstart, DoorDash, Airbnb), and each and every one of them chose Bridge because they fundamentally believe that stablecoins will be a critical piece of financial infrastructure that allows for the improvement of global money movement.

About the team

Join our Technical Program Management team to build the systems that make global, programmable money trustworthy at scale. At Bridge, we’re not just improving global payments—we’re reinventing how money moves across borders using stablecoins and modern financial infrastructure.

This role is about driving execution across complex technical initiatives—bringing structure to ambiguous problems, aligning stakeholders, and helping the team move quickly while maintaining reliability, performance, and operational excellence.

What you’ll do

As a TPM, you'll play a key role leading complex programs across multiple engineering, product, and cross-functional (finance, legal, compliance, risk, and other) teams spanning Bridge. You'll be an active contributor to the overall strategy of the program, drive technical decision-making, and drive the execution of the program through all phases from planning to delivery. You'll have the opportunity to implement mechanisms that make your programs effective and scale them to Bridge-level processes.

Responsibilities

• Drive functional and technical delivery of key team and org-wide programs and initiatives.
• Collaborate with engineering teams to design, scope, and shepherd features.
• Create functional specs, project and release plans, and roadmaps.
• Own and execute one or more software engineering programs simultaneously.
• Drive product decisions that align with program and company objectives
• Influence senior stakeholders and build consensus across engineering, product, and cross-functional teams
• Define and scale program processes and frameworks that can be adopted across the org
• Mentor TPMs and contribute to building the TPM discipline at Bridge

Who you are

We\'re looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.

Minimum requirements

• 6+ years of experience in technical program or product management, with a consistent track record of shipping products with broad and global customer impact
• You have a track record of providing solid program management during all phases of software development from kick-off to ship, demonstrating critical thinking and thought leadership throughout.
• You're not satisfied with just delivering programs on time—you're discerning about product and infrastructure architecture and can lead technical discussions. You don’t let problems remain ambiguous and directly drive clarity on decision tradeoffs and solutions.
• You operate independently and lead efforts across multiple teams and functions, with stakeholders in different disciplines across time zones.
• You have strong written and verbal communication skills to build relationships and collaborate with diverse cross-functional teams

Preferred qualifications

Experience at a fintech or payments company. Track record of driving programs with cross-organizational or company-wide impact — not just team-level delivery. Comfortable working directly with senior engineering and product leadership with limited support. History of building toward durable, long-term solutions, not just shipping on time.
