About the role:

You'll build Salmon's next generation of card products — Apple Pay, Google Pay, virtual and one-time virtual cards — owning each from business request through production.

What you'll do:

• Ship new card capabilities: Apple Pay and Google Pay integration, card tokenization, virtual and one-time virtual cards
• Work hands-on across card issuing and processing, e-commerce payments and 3-D Secure, and the full card lifecycle — knowing how issuers, acquirers, and payment systems fit together is what moves things forward
• Own delivery end to end, coordinating engineering, QA, internal teams, and external providers from first business request to production release

What you'll own:

• Design new card features and services to support product growth and improve operations
• Design and improve APIs and system integrations — both from scratch and on existing services
• Write clear, structured technical documentation for developers
• Build and manage integrations with internal teams and external payment providers
• Set tasks for developers and QA in Jira and Confluence, then initiate and run the release process
• Monitor service performance after release and resolve production incidents

What makes you a strong fit:

• 3+ years as a Technical Product Manager or System Analyst, ideally in fintech or banking
• Hands-on experience with payment services or systems, with a clear understanding of how issuers, acquirers, and payment systems interact
• Solid knowledge of microservice architecture and system design
• Experience designing APIs and integrations from scratch
• Strong SQL
• Experience analyzing and resolving incidents in production

What we offer:

Ownership and flexibility

• Stock option plan — four-year vesting with a 25% cliff after the first year
• Fully remote work with core collaboration hours from 12:00 to 6:00 PM Manila time (UTC+8)
• Company-provided tools and equipment

Health and time off

• Medical insurance support for you and your family through co-funding or reimbursement, depending on your location and subject to policy limits
• Access to an internal mental health support specialist
• 22 vacation days, Philippine public holidays, and 15 sick days

Growth and team experience

• Opportunities to learn and share your expertise through internal expert meetups, external conferences, speaking opportunities, and industry publications
• Company-sponsored trips to Manila to meet and work with your team in person
• High-performing teams can earn a dedicated beach house week in Southeast Asia

We believe strong teams are built by people with different backgrounds, experiences, and points of view. Salmon is an equal opportunity employer, and we make hiring decisions based on skills, experience, and potential.
