Job Description

Job Summary

The Sr. Product Manager is responsible for directing product strategy from conception and definition through implementation. This role identifies new business and market opportunities and creates appropriate business plans. Responsibilities include determining the market for the product, understanding marketplace requirements, and ensuring consistency of new products with the organization's image and objectives. The Sr. Product Manager functions as a central resource, interacting with systems, marketing, and sales during the product development stage, and formulates and executes long-term plans for cost and profit control. The role also promotes the use of new technologies and industry-leading trends.

Additional Details: The Product Architect owns the successful delivery, adoption and ongoing success of Visa Intelligent Authorization (VIA) for strategically important clients, ensuring that client needs, product capabilities, implementation activities and delivery outcomes remain aligned throughout the onboarding lifecycle.

Serving as the connective tissue between Product, Sales Engineering, Client Services, Delivery teams and the client, the Product Architect provides continuity from pre-sales discovery through production stabilization, ensuring requirements are understood, solution designs are viable, delivery remains aligned to client needs, and product evolution is informed by implementation reality.

This role exists because complex onboarding programs require more than delivery management and more than product ownership. They require an individual who can operate across both worlds, challenge assumptions, navigate ambiguity, influence without authority, and remain accountable for the integrity of the client outcome.

The Product Architect owns neither the product roadmap nor the day-to-day management of the project plan. However, they remain accountable for the successful delivery and adoption of VIA for their assigned clients, ensuring that commercial commitments, solution design, product capabilities and implementation activities remain aligned from initial engagement through production stabilization.

Act as the accountable Product lead for assigned strategic clients.

Own the successful delivery and adoption of VIA for assigned clients.

Maintain continuity from pre-sales engagement through production stabilization.

Product & Delivery Alignment

Act as the primary bridge between client implementation teams and VIA product teams.

Ensure delivery remains aligned to agreed solution intent and product capabilities.

Surface product gaps and advocate for enhancements supported by implementation evidence.

Provide implementation-driven insights that influence product strategy, onboarding frameworks and future platform investments.

Delivery Governance

Provide architecture and product leadership throughout implementation.

Support Pilot exit and production readiness assessments for complex implementations.

Act as a senior authority within implementation governance forums, managing escalations, resolving ambiguity, and driving clear ownership across stakeholders.

Cut through organizational noise, competing priorities and conflicting viewpoints to maintain focus on delivery objectives and client outcomes.

Operate comfortably in situations where requirements, ownership, priorities or delivery paths are not yet fully defined, bringing structure and clarity to complex challenges.

Influence without formal authority, aligning client, product, operational and delivery teams around a common outcome.

Be accountable for the overall success of the implementation, regardless of where individual workstreams or delivery responsibilities reside within the organization.

Proactively intervene when delivery risks, ownership gaps or organizational barriers threaten successful execution.

Drive stakeholders toward decisions and actions required to maintain implementation timelines and client commitments.

Problem Resolution & Continuous Improvement

Troubleshoot complex integration, onboarding and production issues where required.

Capture lessons learned and convert implementation experience into reusable standards, guidance and onboarding patterns.

Contribute to improvements in product readiness, onboarding frameworks and client implementation practices.

Demonstrate a willingness to step beyond traditional role boundaries when required, contributing wherever necessary to keep implementations on track and achieve successful client outcomes.

Balance strategic leadership with hands-on execution, moving seamlessly between executive stakeholder discussions and detailed implementation problem solving.

Be prepared to do whatever is required to achieve the client outcome, whether leading executive escalations, facilitating workshops, removing delivery blockers, resolving implementation issues, or supporting activities outside traditional role boundaries.
