Small, high-powered squads. Senior engineers. AI tools baked into how we work. The person running product for a squad doesn't just write specs — they own outcomes end to end.

ABOUT THE ROLE SPEI is Mexico's primary interbank payment rail. For Clara customers, it powers everything from supplier payments to tax disbursements to payroll runs. BillPay Mexico is the product that makes this seamless — domestic and cross-border transfers, payment tracking, reconciliation, and the compliance layer that keeps everything clean with SAT, CNBV, and banking partners.

This is a squad lead role reporting directly to the Global Product Director. You'll own the full BillPay product experience for the Mexican market: payment flows, bank partner integrations, disbursement reliability, and the back-office tooling that supports operations and finance. You'll work closely with engineers, design, banking infrastructure, compliance, and enterprise sales teams.

This role requires physical presence in Mexico City — we're in active conversations with banking partners and regulators, and showing up in person matters.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Own discovery, prioritization, and outcomes for the BillPay MX squad — understand why payment success rates move, why reconciliation breaks, and why customers churn, not just what launched
• Build deep understanding of SPEI infrastructure: clearing windows, return codes, CLABE validation, and failure propagation — and extend that to cross-border flows (FX rails, correspondent banking, settlement timing)
• Maintain and evolve banking partner relationships from a product perspective: know what integration contracts allow, where bottlenecks are, and what needs to be negotiated next
• Own compliance signals: SAT requirements, CNBV guidelines, and PLD/AML obligations for transfer products
• Define and track the metrics that matter: payment success rate, settlement time, reconciliation error rate, time-to-resolve for failed transfers, and BillPay contribution to customer retention
