Lean and LeanX

Product strategy and platform

• Own LeanX product strategy and turn it into executable specifications, priorities, and roadmaps.
• Make prioritization decisions with regard to engineering capacity and trade-offs; shape and communicate long-term strategy.
• Build a cross-border platform that scales across volume, clients, and corridors without repeated bespoke rebuilds.
• Automate pre-funding, liquidity, FX, and reconciliation operations.
• Define required technical infrastructure and guide engineering delivery.

• Treat regulation, licensing, and partner coverage as product inputs.

Stablecoin and Lean integration

• Evaluate adjacent opportunities and avoid distracting product work.
• Build on Lean's core infrastructure where appropriate and maintain a unified platform across stablecoin and fiat, licences, and product lines.
• Bring ways of working closer together across Lean and LeanX teams.

Commercial and engineering collaboration

• Be the first point of contact for product questions from clients, commercial teams, and the company so engineers can focus on building.
• Work with commercial teams on client go-live needs and their implications for volume.
• Set up automation for routine coordination.

Experience and capabilities

• 8+ years in product management, including senior ownership of B2B or infrastructure products.
• Experience in cross-border payments, remittance, payouts, treasury, or stablecoin and digital asset infrastructure.
• Technical fluency with APIs, system design conversations, and engineering trade-offs.
• Track record taking products from early stage to scale, ideally in a startup or new business line.
• Comfort working in regulated environments and treating compliance and licensing as product inputs.
• Clear, concise writing; the role owner writes specifications and strategy documents.
• Experience working with distributed engineering teams across time zones.
• GCC, South Asia, or other emerging-market payment corridor experience is a plus.
• Experience using AI tools to automate product and team workflows is a plus; Arabic is a plus.
