Director of Product

Nium is the global infrastructure company powering real-time cross-border payments. Founded to deliver the payments infrastructure of tomorrow, today, we are building a programmable, borderless, and compliant money-movement layer that powers transactions between people, businesses, and intelligent systems — enabling banks, fintechs, payroll providers, travel platforms, marketplaces, and other global enterprises to move money instantly, anywhere in the world. 
Co-headquartered in San Francisco and Singapore, with offices in 14 markets and team members across 20+ countries, we take pride in a culture anchored in Keeping It Simple, Making It Better, and Winning Together. 2025 was the strongest year in our 10-year history, with record revenue, record transaction volumes, and EBITDA profitability — and we are now entering one of the most dynamic chapters in our journey. We believe the best work happens face-to-face, and we operate a hybrid model with three in-office days per week to strengthen collaboration, alignment, and innovation. 
We move over $50B annually across a network that spans 190+ countries, 100 currencies, and 100 real-time corridors. We power fast payouts to accounts, wallets, and cards; enable local collections in 35 markets; and support card issuance in 34 countries — all backed by licenses across 40+ markets. 
With over $300M raised to date, Nium offers ambitious builders the opportunity to shape the future of global money movement — at scale.

• Buyer insights & competitive intelligence:  
• Build a deep understanding of how payroll providers, EOR platforms, and marketplaces evaluate and scale global payout solutions.  
• Map buyer personas, workflows, and triggers; synthesize market and competitive insights; and feed those learnings into product direction and GTM prioritization.  
• Your insights should materially improve win rates and competitive performance. 
  
• Sales enablement & commercial partnership 
• Create high-impact enablement assets – pitch decks, solution narratives, competitive briefs, and objection handling – tailored to payroll, platform, and marketplace buying groups.  
• Partner with Sales Leadership and RevOps to align vertical strategy, improve pipeline quality, and support high-value opportunities globally. 
  
• Customer stories, proofpoints & industry validation 
• Amplify customer evidence, industry validation, and real-world impact through proofpoints, case studies, and measurable outcomes. 
• Own voice of the customer and use insights and creative storytelling to strengthen trust and social proof in this industry vertical, globally. 
  
• Cross-functional leadership & future team building
