About the role

Lead the LeanX cross-border payments and stablecoin infrastructure product as part of Lean’s leadership team, shaping strategy, roadmaps and coordinating with engineering and commercial teams across multiple regions.

Responsibilities

  • Own product strategy for LeanX across all its product lines: what we build, why, and in what order.
  • Turn strategy into clear specs, priorities and roadmaps the engineering team can execute against.
  • Make the call when priorities change, with a clear view of the team's capacity and the trade-offs involved.
  • Help shape LeanX's long-term strategy and communicate it across the company.
  • Build a cross-border platform that can compete with the leading global payout networks.
  • Make it scale: more volume, more clients and more corridors without rebuilding each time. Launching a new corridor should be a repeatable process, not a project.
  • Automate treasury operations (pre-funding, liquidity, FX and reconciliation) so they no longer depend on people moving money by hand.
  • Define the technical infrastructure a cross-border platform needs, and guide engineering to build it.
  • Make it easy for clients to integrate and go live: APIs, documentation, sandbox and onboarding.
  • Treat regulation, licensing and partner coverage as part of the product, so the platform is defensible.
  • Own the roadmap for stablecoin infrastructure: wallets as a service, on-ramps and off-ramps, stablecoin acceptance and stablecoin payouts.
  • Help decide which adjacent opportunities to pursue and when, and say no to the ones that would distract us.
  • Make sure LeanX builds on Lean's core infrastructure where it should, rather than rebuilding what already exists.
  • Keep one clean platform across stablecoin and fiat, across licences and across product lines as it grows.
  • Bring ways of working closer together across the two teams.
  • Be the first stop for product questions from clients, the commercial team and the wider company, so engineers can focus on building.
  • Work with commercial on the pipeline: what each client needs to go live and what that means for volume.
  • Set up automation for routine coordination.

Qualifications

  • 8+ years in product management, including senior ownership of B2B or infrastructure products.
  • Experience in cross-border payments, remittance, payouts, treasury, or stablecoin and digital asset infrastructure.
  • Strong technical fluency: comfortable with APIs, system design conversations and the trade-offs engineers face.
  • A track record of taking products from early stage to scale, ideally in a startup or new business line.
  • Comfort working in regulated environments and treating compliance and licensing as product inputs.
  • Clear, concise written communication. You write the specs and strategy documents yourself.
  • Experience working with distributed engineering teams across time zones.
  • High agency and good judgment under ambiguity.
