Vantaca Pay is our embedded payments platform and it’s growing fast, as we are currently supporting millions of homeowners, processing billions in payments annually, and scaling 2x+ annually. Originally launched to give homeowners a modern way to pay assessments, Vantaca Pay is now evolving into a full payment ecosystem spanning multiple modalities, deeper integration with our core platform, and an expanding surface area that includes B2C services, amenity payments, and marketplace rails. Digital payment adoption is the core growth lever, and this role owns it end-to-end. You'll own the full Vantaca Pay product surface: homeowner-facing payment experiences, onboarding flows, conversion optimization across all payment modalities, and the experimentation infrastructure that drives adoption. You'll work closely with Engineering, Customer Success, and Go-to-Market to connect product decisions to measurable business outcomes.

• Increase homeowner monetization rate by 2x+ through conversion of offline check payers

• Define and drive the Vantaca Pay product roadmap, balancing near-term adoption goals with the long-term vision of a full payment ecosystem
• Maintain compliance with regulations as the business and payments ecosystem scales
• Optimize the payment flow – e.g., authorization, fraud, take rates
• Own homeowner-facing payment experiences across various modalities: QR codes, magic links, SMS reminders, and push notifications
• Design and run experiments to improve digital payment conversion, using Pendo and LaunchDarkly to test, measure, and iterate
• Partner closely with Engineering to maintain a high-velocity release cadence and ensure specs are clear enough to execute without verbal translation
• Define and track KPIs that connect roadmap decisions to business outcomes: conversion rates, attach rates, take rates, and payment volume growth
• Pull your own data to answer product questions independently – SQL, Pendo, or equivalent
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Engineering, Customer Success, and Go-to-Market to connect payment product decisions to customer outcomes
• Champion self-serve digital payment adoption by ensuring the homeowner experience is intuitive across all touchpoints
• Prepare the product for the next frontier: B2C services, amenity payments, and marketplace rails
• Contribute to a collaborative, high-accountability PM team culture

• Demonstrated ability to use AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, v0, etc.) to accelerate product work — from rapid prototyping of platform architectures and technical documentation to competitive analysis of infrastructure approaches
• Experience building interactive prototypes or technical proof‑of‑concepts using AI‑powered tools to validate platform patterns quickly with engineering teams before major infrastructure investment
• Comfortable leveraging LLMs for technical research, synthesis, and communication — turning complex platform requirements into clear narratives for business stakeholders and vice versa
• Track record of using AI to enhance personal productivity and team velocity, whether through automated workflows, intelligent summarization of technical discussions, or rapid iteration on architectural designs

• Demonstrated ownership of a product surface with real adoption metrics — adoption rates, conversion lifts, and the experiments that moved them
• Experience with Stripe is strongly preferred
• Experience optimizing checkout and/or digital payment experiences
• Experience shipping product in a high‑growth environment where priorities shift weekly and execution speed is a competitive advantage
• Comfort running experiments independently using tools like Pendo, LaunchDarkly, or A/B frameworks — you have a hypothesis, you know how to test it, and you interpret the results
• Data fluency: self‑serve analytics to answer product questions without BI dependencies. SQL is helpful; some form of data access is required
• Payments or D2C background within vertical SaaS, embedded fintech or high‑growth D2C preferred

• Strong analytical skills – comfortable working with product data, funnel metrics, and experiment results to identify friction and communicate data‑informed narratives to both technical and business audiences
• Proven ability to translate business problems into product specs that engineering can execute
• Strong communication skills – you can make payment strategy clear to ELT and credible to an engineer in the same conversation
• High agency and self‑direction – manages competing priorities, navigates ambiguity, and delivers with limited direction
• Comfort operating in a high‑growth, fast‑moving environment where priorities evolve and ownership is earned by doing

• Always Growing: Likes change and enjoys finding new ways to improve their knowledge and the product. Always ready to learn quickly, helping themselves and the team grow
• Win as a Team: Builds trust and works together by making sure everyone communicates well. Actively involved in daily work, working closely with the team, listening to their ideas, and celebrating successes together
• Accountability Starts with Me: Notices problems and takes personal action to solve them
