About VGS
VGS is building the trust infrastructure for a new era of commerce. As commerce becomes agentic, payments are increasing dramatically in volume, speed, and complexity, and the companies driving that shift need a foundation they can fully trust.
That's where VGS comes in. We're the world's leader in payment tokenization, trusted by the most innovative AI and Fortune 500 companies, merchants, banks, and fintechs to power modern payments and agentic commerce. We store more than 9 billion tokens and process more than 10 billion monthly interactions, touching a third of all e-commerce. That scale isn't incidental. It's why leading companies embed our universal token vault and credential management platform directly into their stack, taming the complexity of payment data so they can move faster.
Come build the platform that enables modern payments for the world's largest companies. We're helping businesses unlock new possibilities in an industry that never stops moving. And that takes exceptional people.
About the Role
We are seeking a Product Manager to help drive the evolution of our payments & banking technology. This is a role for a high-agency leader who thrives on technical complexity and demands perfection from their systems. You won't just build features; you will envision new ways of looking at decades-old problems, manage sophisticated relationships and product enhancements with industry experts, and help create the technical foundation on top of which the payments world is built.
In this role, you will work across the payments and banking industry to deliver products in the service of technologists on both sides of the network. This includes creating products in the realm of payments messaging, processor integration management, legacy system modernization, security, and compliance. You will need to understand users, products, and business needs to define new capabilities in our payments messaging offerings.
We seek a curious, tech-minded, and highly resourceful PM who can build and iterate solutions that are understood by both bankers and the engineers who build the system. You must be willing to drive technical rigor at the lowest level.
What You’ll Do
-
Product Strategy & Discovery: Meet with banks, processors, customers, partners, and engineering leaders to map complex technical problems to business needs. Define technical requirements, prioritize features, and create roadmaps that align with business objectives.
-
Manage complex implementation rollouts that span multiple continents to modernize banking, acquiring, and similar use-cases.
-
Ideate a sophisticated and configurable developer-friendly product interface that supports payments technologists, customer implementation specialists, and the business stakeholders that manage the finances. This interface will be used to interpret ISO8583, ISO20022, and similar messaging formats over a wide-array of protocols.
