Product Manager, Currency Expansion & Payments - Europe

<p style="line-height: 1.3;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>About Us</strong></span></p> <p style="line-height: 1.3;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">OpenFX is on a mission to <strong>move money as freely as data, unrestricted by time zones, banking hours, or legacy systems.</strong> We are building the infrastructure that will power the next generation of cross-border payment systems for institutions. The team's execution has been exceptional, and we're scaling at a remarkable pace. Our stellar early team comes with experience in companies like J.P. Morgan, Goldman Sachs, FalconX, Paypal, Affirm, Polygon, Kraken, Nium &amp; others. We’re backed by Accel, Lightspeed, NfX and other top-tier investors.</span></p> <p style="line-height: 1.3;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>Role Overview</strong></span></p> <p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]" style="line-height: 1.3;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">We are looking for a Product Manager to own currency expansion across Europe. Every new currency unlocks new corridors for our institutional clients, directly driving trading volume and revenue. Your mandate is to scale aggressively across the region: sourcing liquidity providers, standing up settlement rails with banking partners, navigating jurisdiction-specific compliance, and ensuring every currency you launch meets the reliability bar our clients expect.</span></p> <p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]" style="line-height: 1.3;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">You will run your regional currency roadmap with independence. You will set pricing. You will prioritize engineering effort. You report to the PM for Payments &amp; Currencies, who sets strategic prioritization for which currencies matter most based on payout corridor relevance. You own the how and the when.</span></p> <p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]" style="line-height: 1.3;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">If you have shipped cross-border payment products, worked with banking or card network infrastructure, or built API-driven financial products across jurisdictions, this role will feel familiar. The difference is you will be doing it at the frontier of stablecoin-settled FX infrastructure, where the rails are new and the playbook is yours to write.</span></p> <h2 class="text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.375rem] font-bold" style="line-height: 1.3;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>What You'll Actually Do</strong></span></h2> <ul class="[li_&amp;]:mb-0 [li_&amp;]:mt-1 [li_&amp;]:gap-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3"> <li class="font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2" style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>Own Corridor Launch.</strong> You own every currency in your European pipeline from Alpha through General Availability. You track Liquidity Partner onboarding, settlement rail readiness, compliance clearance, operational setup and pricing. You run readiness reviews, maintain the launch checklist, and make the go/no-go call. Nothing goes live in Europe without your sign-off.</span></li> <li class="font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2" style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>Prioritize Engineering.</strong> You work with engineers to deliver against your roadmap. You write specs, set sprint priorities, and partner with your EM to ensure capacity is allocated to the highest-impact currencies.</span></li> <li class="font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2" style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>Work Directly with LPs and Banking Partners.</strong> You are the product voice in LP onboarding and banking partner discussions. You understand what it takes to stand up a new currency pair technically, what banking partners need to enable settlement, and how to translate partner constraints into product decisions. You set pricing for new pairs and run pricing experiments to drive volume.</span></li> <li class="font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2" style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
