Staff Product Manager - LATAM

Nium, Global Leader in Payments

Nium , the global leader in real-time, cross-border payments, was founded on the mission to deliver the global payments infrastructure of tomorrow, today. With the onset of the global economy, its payments infrastructure is shaping how banks, fintechs, and businesses everywhere collect, convert, and disburse funds instantly across borders.

Its payout network supports 100 currencies and spans 220+ markets, 100 of which in real-time. Funds can be disbursed to accounts, wallets, and cards and collected locally in 35 markets. Nium's growing card issuance business is already available in 34 countries. Nium holds regulatory licenses and authorizations in more than 40 countries, enabling seamless onboarding, rapid integration, and compliance – independent of geography. The company is co-headquartered in San Francisco and Singapore.

The Role

This is a high-impact, high-autonomy leadership position for a product leader who thrives at the intersection of payments infrastructure, regulatory complexity, and market activation. Based in São Paulo, you will own Nium's product strategy and execution across LATAM — with Brazil as your immediate priority.

You will serve as the senior product voice on the ground in the region, translating Nium's global capabilities into locally-relevant products and navigating the regulatory and partnership landscape to unlock growth. This is not a role for someone who needs a playbook — it requires independent judgment, deep market knowledge, and the drive to build from the ground up.

Brazil Market Activation

Lead the product activation of Nium's Brazil footprint, by owning the roadmap toward direct PIX integration — defining the technical, regulatory, and partnership milestones required to achieve this.

Drive the product workstream for Nium's Corretora licence application, ensuring product and compliance requirements are translated into executable delivery plans.

Build and maintain relationships with local infrastructure providers, assessing tradeoffs and advising on partner selection.

Translate rapidly changing Brazilian regulatory requirements into actionable product decisions — serving as the connective tissue between compliance and product delivery.

Represent Nium's product interests with local regulators, banking partners, and enterprise clients.

LATAM Expansion

Oversee product rollouts and localisation in Mexico, Colombia, Chile, and Argentina — ensuring Nium's global product suite is adapted to meet local market, regulatory, and customer needs.

Establish a product operating model for the LATAM region, including discovery, prioritisation, and delivery frameworks that can operate with limited input from group.

Identify and prioritise the highest-value product opportunities across the region, working closely with commercial teams to align product investment with revenue
