Full Job Description
We are hiring a Product Manager to own how money actually moves through Tempo-end-to-end. This role sits at the heart of our value proposition: enabling fast, reliable, cost-efficient, and programmable movement of value across borders, chains, and financial systems. You'll be responsible for the entire lifecycle of value flow on Tempo: how funds enter, exit, settle, convert, and become usable for real-world payments. Your work will power merchants, PSPs, banks, and fintechs, and unlock modern payment experiences like real-time cross-border payouts, onchain merchant acquiring, FX automation, global treasury flows, and more.

What You'll Do:
  • Own the money movement stack
    • Architect Tempo's settlement primitives, including global pay-ins, global payouts, treasury flows, and on/off-chain conversion paths.
  • Launch new real-world payment capabilities
    • Ship native on/off-ramps (merchant acquiring, payouts, fiat connectivity).
    • Support emerging payment use cases like employer payroll, remittances, stablecoin merchant acquiring, FX flows, and treasury automation.
  • Work deeply with partners
    • Partner with merchants, PSPs, banks, and fintechs to integrate Tempo into their payment or treasury workflows.
    • Own enterprise-grade integration surfaces including a Payments SDK, unified APIs, and partner tooling


Who You Are:
  • 7+ years of Product Management experience in blockchain, fintech, or digital assets.
  • Deep understanding of stablecoin systems, custody, and bridging infrastructure.
  • Familiarity with payments, compliance, and fiat settlement flows.
  • Proven ability to manage external partnerships with regulated institutions and technical teams.
  • Strong technical understanding of token standards (ERC-20, ERC-2612, etc.) and smart contract interfaces.
  • Excellent cross-functional communication skills and stakeholder management experience.
