Full Job Description

As Mercury grows, our revenue platforms increasingly sit at the intersection of product launches, data systems, go-to-market motion, and external vendors. When everything is important, the real risk isn’t lack of effort — it’s loss of momentum. We’re hiring a Technical Program Manager for Revenue Technology to ensure that complex, multi-team initiatives actually move: in the right order, with the right dependencies surfaced, and with real progress visible week over week. This is not a status-meeting role. This is a technical, hands-on TPM who understands systems well enough to unblock work directly — whether that’s in Linear, Salesforce, data workflows, or coordination across Product, Engineering, Data, and Revenue. In this role, you will report to the Head of Platforms & Infrastructure and play a critical role in protecting execution focus so specialized technical roles can operate at full effectiveness. *Mercury is a fintech company, not an FDIC-insured bank.
