Weavr is the easiest way for businesses, and the safest way for banks, to embed relevant financial services into software at the point of need. Founded by serial entrepreneurs who are leaders in the fields of payments and fintech, we’re a team of 100+ can-do builders who are at the frontier of the embedded-finance industry.

The team is characterised by smart, kind and high-performing experts who offer and ask for respect, openness and trust. Weavr is still small enough to feel tight-knit but operates and communicates at the level of a more mature organisation.

This role & opportunity

We're seeking a dynamic Product leader to spearhead the delivery of our identity, compliance and risk propositions, features, and capabilities within our Embedded Finance offering. As a pivotal member of the Product Management team, you'll play a central role in shaping our product strategy and delivering commercially attractive features and capabilities that delight our customers.

You will lead a team that is critical to building our compliance advantage and pivotal to delivering great end customer experiences, with accountability for areas such as onboarding, authentication and financial crime prevention.

Your role entails synthesising customer needs, setting product outcomes and metrics, defining innovative features, and crafting value propositions. You'll lead customer-centric roadmap development and collaborate closely on go-to-market strategies. In product delivery, you'll formulate and evaluate solutions aligned with business objectives, leading projects to meet specific needs while ensuring effective communication and management across diverse stakeholder groups.

We're a team that supports one another, that encourages individuality and creative ideas. Working at Weavr is more than a place to work.

About Weavr

Digital innovators of all kinds need to create, deploy and integrate frictionless payment flows in their products, applications and systems.

Today, there are ever more payment networks and systems to choose from or to support, and payment infrastructure has never been so open and API-enabled as it is today. However, the security and compliance burden has also increased, as has the complexity that comes with most power, choice and responsibility.

Weavr addresses these challenges in practical ways, simplifying how digital payments are purchased, delivered and consumed. With Weavr, building complex payment flows seems unreasonably simple. There’s no catch - Weavr is based on the results of an ambitious EU-Horizon 2020 funded research project that set to develop engineering solutions to the difficult problems of guaranteeing security and compliance while providing maximum openness and power to developers, and to simplify the creation of complex payment logic through model-driven engineering techniques.
