[Hiring] TPM - Wallet & Payments @Flatgigs

Role Description

We’re building a regulated digital wallet and payments platform in the UAE, and this role sits at the center of everything. This is not a typical TPM role.

You will be the person who:

• Connects engineering, product, compliance, and business
• Keeps wallet + payments delivery moving under regulatory pressure
• Ensures nothing falls through the cracks when things get complex (which they will)

If you’ve worked on fintech products in the UAE, you already know — this is part execution, part coordination, part problem-solving under constraints.

What You’ll Own

• Program & Delivery Ownership
  • Drive end-to-end delivery of wallet and payment features
  • Manage timelines across engineering, product, compliance, and partners
  • Break down complex fintech initiatives into clear execution plans
• Cross-Functional Alignment
  • Act as the bridge between:
    • Engineering
    • Product
    • Compliance / Risk
    • External partners (banks, payment providers)
  • Ensure everyone is aligned on what is being built, why, and when
• Fintech & Regulatory Coordination
  • Work closely with teams to align delivery with UAE regulatory expectations
  • Track dependencies related to:
    • KYC / AML
    • Payment integrations
    • Wallet flows
  • Ensure documentation, timelines, and readiness for regulatory reviews
• Execution & Problem Solving
  • Identify blockers early and drive resolution fast
  • Manage multiple workstreams across wallet, payments, and integrations
  • Bring structure to ambiguity and keep momentum high

Qualifications

• 5–10 years experience as a TPM / Program Manager / Delivery Lead
• Prior experience working on fintech products (wallets, payments, banking, BNPL, etc.)
• Strong understanding of backend-heavy systems and APIs
• Experience managing cross-functional teams in high-pressure environments
• UAE Fintech Exposure (Strong Preference)
• Experience working on fintech products in the UAE
• Understanding of:
  • Regulatory constraints
  • Payment integrations
  • Banking ecosystems

Core Skills

• Strong program management and execution skills
• Ability to manage multiple stakeholders and priorities
• Clear communication (especially between tech and non-tech teams)
• High ownership mindset

What Success Looks Like

• Wallet features are delivered on time and without regulatory surprises
• Engineering, product, and compliance move in sync
• Dependencies are managed before they become problems
• The team moves faster because of you
