The product is already processing real volume; this role is about turning it into a reliable, repeatable, growing business. You'll start focused on Yaydoo payments and expand into broader LATAM and multi-BU initiatives as you build a track record of execution. This is a hands-on, cross-functional role working with Product, Engineering, Compliance, Finance, Treasury, CX, Sales, and Implementation. What You'll Own Run day-to-day Yaydoo payments operations: monitor transaction health, exceptions, reconciliation, and settlement timing. Drive volume growth by removing friction from onboarding, activation, and partner handoffs. Track and improve throughput, success rates, failure reasons, and unit economics. Build trusted dashboards and reporting that give leadership visibility into payment performance and risk. Strengthen controls, documentation, and escalation paths so operations stay auditable as volume scales. Identify recurring monitoring, reporting, and triage workflows that can be automated or improved with AI-enabled tooling. Support LATAM expansion by adapting playbooks to local market and regulatory needs as the platform matures. What We're Looking For 5+ years in fintech, banking, payment operations, treasury operations, or similar high-accountability operational roles. Bilingual fluency in English and Spanish. Experience scaling payment operations post-launch: volume ramp, exception reduction, reconciliation improvement, control design. Strong understanding of payment flows, settlement, reconciliation, and operational controls. Proven cross-functional execution with Product, Engineering, Compliance, Finance, and CX. High ownership mindset and comfort in ambiguous, fast-moving environments. Practical curiosity about using AI, automation, dashboards, or alerts to improve operational speed and quality. Nice to Have Exposure to LATAM payments or regional expansion. Experience with B2B SaaS payments, AR/AP platforms, or transaction-based business models. Familiarity with APIs, payment integrations, SQL, or automation tooling. What Success Looks Like Yaydoo payments operations are reliable, documented, and increasingly scalable. Volume grows without sacrificing control quality or customer experience. Exceptions and manual workarounds decrease over time. Leadership has trusted reporting on performance and expansion readiness. The role becomes a foundation for broader LATAM and multi-BU payments ownership. What We Offer 💵 Base salary + monthly commissions. 🌎 Opportunity for advancement and growth in a rapidly expanding team. 👨🏻‍🏫 Mentorship, learning, and education programs. 💪🏻 Smart, high-achieving, motivated team that likes to have fun. 🎯 Mission-driven culture, where your work matters. 🏥 Major Medical Health Insurance. 💻 Company provided equipment and tools.

We understand that no candidate is perfectly qualified for any job. Experience manifests in diverse ways, skills are transferable, and passion is a powerful driver. Your journey and skills are unique, and we value the richness that diverse perspectives bring to our team.
