Job Description:
At eBay, we're more than a global ecommerce leader — we’re
changing the way the world shops and sells. Our platform empowers
millions of buyers and sellers in more than 190 markets around the
world. We’re committed to pushing boundaries and leaving our mark
as we reinvent the future of ecommerce for enthusiasts. Our
customers are our compass, authenticity thrives, bold ideas are
welcome, and everyone can bring their unique selves to work — every
day. We're in this together, sustaining the future of our
customers, our company, and our planet. Join a team of passionate
thinkers, innovators, and dreamers — and help us connect people and
build communities to create economic opportunity for all. About the
team and the role: Payments is one of the company’s major growth
enablers. Putting customers at the heart of everything we do, we
connect communities and empower our people to deliver outstanding
commerce experiences to drive eBay’s long-term growth and market
share. eBay seeks an experienced Senior Product Manager to develop,
optimize and scale the capabilities of eBay's Payments Platform.
This role involves taking on the challenges of evolving a robust
marketplace payment solution into a scalable, multi-tenant
"Payments-as-a-Service" platform. A critical challenge is to
decouple our existing payment boundaries to build a "plug-and-play"
suite of services — including embedded payments, compliance, and
risk — that can be seamlessly adopted by any tenant, for example
eBay subsidiaries. The Product Manager will lead the strategic
evolution of the financial services, crafting future-proof
interfaces and customizable design components that handle
operational heavy-lifting while ensuring tenant isolation and
independent scale. What you will accomplish: Define and drive the
product vision for the "Payments-as-a-Service" track, evolving our
embedded payments capabilities for marketplaces as well as a full
PayFac offering for subsidiaries and future clients. Partner with
cross-functional teams to design "fit-for-purpose" boundaries
between the marketplace and payments layers, ensuring services like
acquiring, payouts, financial reporting and ledgering are modular
and scalable. Lead the development of both API-first services and
"drop-in" UX components (SDKs) that allow marketplace as well as
PayFac tenants to quickly onboard and ramp. Analyze data and
industry trends to identify optimization hypotheses for
multi-tenant scaling, focusing on automating onboarding, compliance
checks, and financial reconciliation for partners. Clearly set the
product/backlog prioritization with a balance of near-term outcomes
(e.g., migrating subsidiary sellers to the new platform) and
longer-term investments in platform future-proofing. Build a case
for your hypotheses, A/B test implementation strategies, and
implement winners that reduce integration time and operational
burden for our tenants. What you will bring: 7 years of product
management experience 3 years of experience in payments domain and
platform payments processing. Deep knowledge of the payments
landscape, embedded payments, white label solutions or PayFac
models ?Engineering Degree/MBA degree or equivalent experience
Consistent track record of crafting "API-first" platforms and
client-facing SDKs/UI components (e.g., drop-in frames for critical
data collection). Strategic approach with the ability to plan
execution towards a final "As-a-Service" vision, anticipating
future regulatory and scalability needs for diverse tenants
Comfortable making the "tough calls" on trade-offs - balancing
speed-to-market with the long-term health of a multi-tenant
platform. Ability to use data to formulate product perspectives,
rationalise platform investments, and define success metrics for
platform health and reliability. Experienced in handling complex
partner relationships (Legal, Treasury, Risk, and Engineering) to
achieve "win-win" outcomes for the platform and its tenants.
