Product Manager, Embedded Finance (APAC)

About Reap
Reap is a global financial technology company headquartered in Hong Kong with employees across multiple countries. We enable financial connectivity and access for businesses worldwide by combining traditional finance with stablecoins for efficient money movement.
Through our stablecoin-powered corporate cards, payments, and expense management tools, we streamline financial operations and help businesses scale. Our APIs enable businesses to integrate stablecoin-enabled finance into their own products and services—from issuing Visa cards to facilitating cross-border payments.
Backed by leading investors including Acorn Pacific, Index Ventures and HashKey Capital, Reap is building the future of borderless, stablecoin-enabled finance.
Why Reap?
The Product Manager for Embedded Finance will be a strategic co-owner of Reap's card programme management platform — the infrastructure layer that enables clients to launch and operate card programmes on Reap's infrastructure. You will own a significant domain within our Embedded Finance product suite, set the direction for it, and be expected to bring independent judgment, push back on assumptions, and shape the roadmap alongside product leaders.
What You’ll Do
Domain Ownership & Strategy
Own a significant domain within Card Program as a Service end-to-end — from problem definition and prioritisation through to delivery and iteration

Develop a deep understanding of the clients, processors, schemes, and compliance requirements that shape your domain; use that knowledge to make opinionated, well-reasoned product decisions

Proactively identify gaps, risks, and opportunities in your domain — you don't wait to be told what to work on

Cross-Functional Leadership
Work closely with engineering, solutions architecture, compliance, and legal to drive product outcomes across your domain

Build strong working relationships with external partners and clients to inform your product direction

Communicate product decisions, rationale, and tradeoffs clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders

Contribute to team-level discussions on strategy, operating model, and prioritisation — your voice shapes how the team operates, not just what it builds

Product Craft
Write product specs that are precise enough for engineers to build from and clear enough for compliance and legal to validate against

Define success metrics for your domain and use data to evaluate whether you're moving in the right direction

Maintain a high bar for product quality — you care about the details of how something works, not just whether it shipped

AI-Augmented Ways of Working
Actively use AI tooling to accelerate your own output — research, spec writing, competitive analysis, client communication, and strategic synthesis

Help embed AI-native practices across the team; you raise the bar for what good looks like

Identify opportunities to build AI-assisted capabilities into the product itself, not just your personal workflow

What We’re Looking For
6+ years of product management experience in fintech, payments infrastructure, or B2B SaaS — with a track record of owning significant product domains independently

Deep knowledge of the cards and payments stack — you understand card issuing, acquiring, payment networks, card controls, disputes, and compliance as an interconnected system

Strong grasp of regulatory and compliance requirements relevant to card programmes — AML, KYC/KYB, scheme compliance, and jurisdiction-specific obligations

Experience working with APIs end-to-end — able to read specs, evaluate integration designs, and write precise API-level requirements

A genuine AI power user — you have a current, active practice of using AI tools to do your job faster and better; you can show your work

Strong written communication — your memos, specs, and strategic documents are clear, well-structured, and stand on their own

Technical Capabilities
Must-Have
Broad functional fluency across the cards stack — authorisation flows, clearing and settlement, card controls, dispute/chargeback processes, and scheme compliance

Working knowledge of payments compliance frameworks — AML monitoring, KYC/KYB flows, and transaction monitoring

Ability to review API specifications at a level sufficient to make product decisions and challenge engineering proposals

Active, demonstrated use of AI tooling (Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, or equivalent) as a core part of your daily workflow

Bonus
Exposure to web3 payment rails — crypto-funded cards, stablecoin settlement, or blockchain-based payment infrastructure

Experience in a CaaS or embedded finance context, supporting B2B clients with card infrastructure

Experience building or prototyping AI-assisted internal tooling

Desired Attributes
Independently driven — you identify what matters, form a view, and pursue it without waiting to be directed; you're a self-starter who holds themselves to a high bar

Opinionated but intellectually honest — you bring strong views and defend them clearly, but update when you encounter better information or arguments

Broad domain curiosity — you're as comfortable in an AML discussion as a debate about API design or stablecoin settlement mechanics; you connect dots others miss

Systems thinker — you see your domain as part of a larger interconnected system and make product decisions accordingly

High ownership, low ego — you take accountability for outcomes, escalate early when things are stuck, and don't need credit to stay motivated

AI-native, not AI-curious — you've moved past wondering what AI can do and are actively building your own workflows, prompts, and systems around it; you find people who aren't doing this a little baffling

Why You'll Love it Here
A high-impact role in a rapidly growing fintech company.

Flexible hybrid/remote work environment with a global, collaborative team.

Insurance coverage after probation.

Reap Card stipend.

Use of AI tools at work — and the space to learn, experiment, and grow with them.

A culture of innovation, inclusion, and continuous learning.
