How you will contribute:

    • Own and execute the end-to-end roadmap for card issuing to ensure every component fits into a coherent issuing architecture: BIN lifecycle, card profile, MDES enablement, and scheme compliance
    • Manage partner technical stakeholders and sponsor bank relationships
    • Lead scheme certification and audit deliverables
  • Issuing Product Definition & Lifecycle Design
    • Define card logic, onboarding flows, limits, AML/KYC requirements, fee model, and user experience

    • Design and operationalize issuer-funded and merchant-funded incentive models
  • Internal Leadership
    • Translate scheme rules into actionable engineering and operational deliverables
    • Collaborate with compliance, risk, and security teams to align AML, PCI, and program expectations

What you bring to the table:

  • 8+ years of experience in card issuing across MasterCard, Visa, digital banking, or issuer processing environments in North America
  • Hands-on experience launching at least one BIN-based card program (mandatory), with ownership beyond advisory roles
  • Exposure to Prepaid, Debit, Gift Card, or Loyalty ecosystems is preferred
  • Strong understanding of settlement, reconciliation, chargebacks, digital wallet tokenization, and post-launch operations
  • Excellent communication, documentation, and stakeholder management skills
  • Demonstrated ability to influence teams and deliver outcomes without direct reporting structures
