About the Role We are an international broker. Our clients fund and withdraw through approximately 60 payment methods across Asia, Africa, LATAM, and the Middle East. Payments Product is now a standalone function, and we are building the team around it. This is an early core hire. We are looking for a Payment Integration Manager who will own payment integrations end to end-from the initial technical call with a provider through to stable production. You will also be the first line of response for every payment incident and the person responsible for deciding whether a new integration is ready to go live. This is a technical operations role rather than a coordination role. Key Responsibilities 1. Payment Provider Onboarding & Integration

* Manage the full onboarding cycle for new payment providers, including:

* Initial technical calls

* Credentials and sandbox access

* Configuration and test design

* User Acceptance Testing (UAT)

* Production launch

* Post-release stabilisation

* Define integration acceptance standards and own the go/no-go decision before launch.

* Review provider API documentation and translate it into implementation-ready specifications for engineering, covering edge cases, failure paths, and confirmation model behaviour.

2. Payment Incident Management

* Own the first-line response for payment incidents, including:

* Failed and stuck transactions

* Unconfirmed payments

* Payment method-level anomalies

* Investigate and drive incidents to resolution rather than simply escalating them.

* Diagnose provider-side versus platform-side issues using logs, API responses, and transaction data.

* Communicate findings clearly to providers, engineers, and internal stakeholders.

3. Technical Testing & Verification

* Perform hands-on verification of payment integrations.

* Conduct manual checkout testing across mobile and desktop.

* Verify callbacks and API behaviour using Postman or equivalent tools.

* Execute SQL queries to investigate transaction data.

* Validate asynchronous payment statuses, confirmation models, redirect flows, and failure scenarios.

4. Payment Method & Provider Catalogue

* Maintain a comprehensive catalogue of payment methods and providers, documenting:

* Supported capabilities

* Available integration types

* Completed testing

* Known failure modes

* Build the initial capability inventory of all live payment methods and providers.

* Convert ambiguous provider documentation and undocumented operational knowledge into actionable specifications.

5. Payment Performance Analysis Produce a 90-day breakdown of deposit attempts, categorised by outcome:

* Completed transactions

* Declined by the provider

* Abandoned by the user

* Abandoned during redirect

* Completed but never confirmed back to the platform

Requirements Essential Qualifications & Experience

* 4+ years of experience in payments, PSP integrations, or fintech platforms, with hands-on ownership of integrations rather than coordination alone.

* Working knowledge of APIs, webhooks, asynchronous payment statuses, callback mechanics, confirmation models, redirect flows, and common failure modes.

* Ability to review provider API specifications and identify missing information.

* Experience using Postman or equivalent tools for API testing.

* Experience performing structured checkout testing across mobile and desktop.

* Proven ability to investigate live payment incidents using logs and API responses.

* Ability to distinguish provider-side issues from platform-side problems.

* Experience translating incomplete or ambiguous technical documentation into clear specifications for engineering.

* Strong communication skills and composure during incidents.

* Basic knowledge of using AI tools in daily work.

* Working proficiency in both English and Russian, as both languages are used daily.

Preferred Qualifications The following experience will be considered a significant advantage:

* Experience with Alternative Payment Methods (APMs) and local payment rails across Asia, Africa, or LATAM, beyond card payments.

* Knowledge of bank transfer rails, virtual accounts, QR-based payments, mobile money, and similar payment methods.

* Background in brokerage, crypto payments, payment orchestration, or other high-volume payment environments.

* Previous experience working with a PSP, payment gateway, or payment provider.

* Active use of AI tools in daily workflows.

* Ability to work independently and make decisions without constant supervision.

* A proactive approach to identifying improvements, proposing solutions, and implementing new processes.

What Success Looks Like in the First Year

* First Few Months - Operational Ownership

* Take ownership of first-line payment incidents, build the payment method and provider catalogue using documentation and direct investigation, and produce the 90-day deposit attempt analysis.

* By Mid-Year - Integration Acceptance Standards

* Establish the integration acceptance framework and apply it to a live provider onboarding process, from initial engagement through production launch.

* Second Half - Established Processes & Decision-MakingAs the team expands, a Systems Analyst will assume responsibility for formal verification, while the integration acceptance gate remains under your ownership.

* Maintain an accurate and up-to-date provider catalogue, ensure the integration acceptance gate is fully operational, and take ownership of incident-related decisions.

Recruitment Process Our recruitment process consists of four stages:

* HR Interview: Background, motivation, and overall role alignment.

* Technical Interview: Payment integration knowledge, technical tools, hands-on experience, and incident diagnosis.

* Product & Problem-Solving Interview: Integration decisions, prioritisation, and practical problem-solving.

* Final Interview: Discussion with senior stakeholders.

What We Offer

* Competitive fixed monthly compensation, depending on experience.

* Fully remote working arrangement within GMT to GMT+4, with no relocation required.

* End-to-end ownership of payment provider integrations, from the first technical call through production.

* Authority to make go/no-go decisions for every integration.

* Opportunities to expand your responsibilities as the business grows, including cards, alternative payment methods, a card programme, and new entities.

* Access to corporate AI tooling as part of the daily working process.
