Job Description
The Visa Direct Technical Product Manager team serves as the liaison between Business Product Management and Engineering, translating business needs into technically feasible, right-sized solutions. In this role, you will evaluate incoming requirements, clarify “what and why,” and drive solutioning decisions—leveraging existing platform assets where possible and defining new assets where required—to deliver client outcomes without overbuilding or introducing unnecessary cost.
What You’ll Do (Responsibilities)
- Bridge business requirements and engineering execution by translating “what/why” into clear solution intent and technical direction.
- Lead solutioning by determining when to reuse existing Visa Direct capabilities vs. when new assets are required to bring a solution to life.
- Partner and platform integration support: collaborate with cross-functional partners to map requirements, define integration needs, and ensure solutions work end-to-end across client-facing APIs and internal processing components. (Example: partner mapping + new asset build + reuse of existing assets/APIs/back office.)
- Ensure solutions are pragmatic and scalable—able to understand both client pain points and developer constraints, and avoid expensive/overbuilt approaches.
This is a hybrid position. Expectation of days in the office will be confirmed by your Hiring Manager.
Immigration sponsorship: Not supported for this role
