Product at Primer owns the systems that move money for some of the most demanding merchants in the world. We are building payments infrastructure that has to be correct, resilient and fast, in a space where the edge cases are the job, not an afterthought. We are hiring Senior PMs across numerous teams. Wherever you land, you will own a full product area: a coherent space made up of several related problems, with outcomes that persist over quarters and years rather than a single initiative.

You will report into our VP of Product and work day to day with a dedicated engineering team and design partner, alongside GTM, RevOps and Product Marketing. Primer is remote-first and globally distributed, and always will be. We run on written thinking, low bureaucracy and real ownership. You build it, you own it, end to end. WHAT WILL YOU BE DOING? - Owning the strategy and outcomes for your product area, translating company objectives into a multi-quarter plan and clear guardrails for what you will and will not build - Resolving genuine ambiguity with evidence and judgment, not waiting for someone to hand you a brief or a roadmap - Running discovery and an ongoing insight system for your area: research cadence, merchant and GTM feedback loops, and competitive mon
