We're hiring a Payments Operations Manager to execute day-to-day operations and support the scaling of Tabs' payments program as we bring payments in-house.

You'll be hands-on and detail-oriented, executing defined workflows and improving them incrementally. This role is ideal for someone who takes pride in making processes work reliably, escalating issues appropriately, and identifying practical bottlenecks. You'll be the first responder on operational issues and own a meaningful portion of our day-to-day PayOps work.

Demonstrated execution of payments workflows (reconciliation, dispute processing, ACH returns, merchant management, exception handling) at a payment facilitator, processor, platform, or fintech.
Strong track record of accurate, detail-oriented work in high-stakes operational environments where errors cascade downstream.
Ability to follow defined processes consistently and identify practical improvements without constant oversight.
Clear judgment about which issues require escalation and which can be resolved independently; structured communication about decisions and outcomes.
Comfort prioritizing among competing operational tasks and managing your own queue of work.
Effective collaboration with support, finance, product, and operational partners to understand requirements and implement changes.
Comfort with defined processes and strong operational discipline; appreciation for documentation and systematic approach to work.
Familiarity with card payment operations (chargebacks, disputes, settlement mechanics) OR strong ACH expertise with willingness to learn card operations; we're flexible on depth depending on your payment rails background.
Comfort learning and adopting new tools, including automation and AI-enabled operational tools, to improve accuracy and efficiency.
