Head of Product (Fully Remote) job at Primer

The last two decades have seen an explosion in new payment services - from digital wallets, mobile payments, and open banking, to Buy Now Pay Later and crypto. Great for consumers! But, incredibly complex for merchants and developers. That’s where Primer comes in.

Primer is the world's first automation platform for payments. With Primer, merchants and developers have all the underlying infrastructure and "lego blocks" they need to build the best buying experiences for their customers. Any developer can build a connection on Primer; merchants then simply 'click and connect' to the services they need to build their desired payment flows within their Primer dashboard.

Since starting in January 2020, we've raised funding from top tier investors including Accel, Balderton and Iconiq. Our all-star team from across the world of payments and fintech includes ex Braintree-PayPal, Stripe, Checkout, Tink, Recurly, TrueLayer, Paddle, Plaid, Kount and more - come and join us!

Primer is looking for a world-class product leader to help us build the most powerful commerce platform in the world. Reporting to Paul Anthony, Co-Founder, you'll be scaling teams in a high growth start-up environment and take on any challenge thrown your way to make this happen.

You'll be a seasoned, strategic leader, who'll bring passion, enthusiasm, energy and integrity into the role.
