LemFi (Series B) is building the go-to financial app for the Global South.
Moving to a new country shouldn’t mean starting from zero. That's why our team of 400+ spanning 20+ countries is building a financial ecosystem that helps immigrants stay connected to home, build stability, and create wealth regardless of where they are from or where they live.
What began as fast, affordable remittances is now evolving into a complete platform for multi-currency accounts, payments, credit, and long-term financial growth.
With millions of users across the globe, we process over $1B in monthly transactions to 30+ countries, proving that borders shouldn't limit financial opportunity.
LemFi is building the financial engine for people the world was not built to serve - and Latin America is one of the biggest opportunities on our roadmap. This role sits at the centre of that expansion: you will own the product for LATAM corridors end to end, from the first line of an API spec with a local payment partner to the moment a customer sends their first peso or real without friction.
You will work directly with our Head of LATAM and a lean, fast-moving cross-functional team. There is no large roadmap committee, no waiting for sign-off cycles. You will identify what is broken, decide what to build, and ship it - then do it again for the next market. If you have worked in cross-border payments, know the LATAM partner landscape, and thrive when the brief is incomplete, this is your role.
Own the end-to-end product roadmap for LATAM corridors - prioritising ruthlessly across UX, compliance edge cases and partner integrations as we launch market after market.
Build and maintain deep relationships with key regional payment partners, for example (Nexa in Mexico, PIX ecosystem in Brazil and equivalents), reviewing API docs and acting as the product-side voice in integration QAs.
Translate messy, market-specific data signals - transaction success rates, drop-off points, failure codes - into clear decisions and shipped improvements, not slide decks.
Map the LATAM competitive landscape continuously: understand what competitors and others are doing so we stay a step ahead on UX and pricing.
Navigate LATAM-specific product complexity - dual surnames, document type variation, local compliance nuance - and bake solutions into the core product rather than treating them as edge cases.
Travel periodically to sit with partners on the ground, run lightweight QA sessions and build the trust that makes integrations move faster.
Use AI tooling to accelerate research, spec-writing and data analysis so you can move at the pace the market demands.
3 or more years as a Product Manager in cross-border payments, remittances or a closely related fintech product - you know how money moves across borders and where it gets stuck.
Hands-on familiarity with the LATAM payments ecosystem: at least one of Mexico, Brazil, Colombia or a comparable market, including its partner and regulatory landscape.
Genuinely data-driven: comfortable pulling and interrogating transaction data independently, spotting anomalies and driving fixes without being prompted.
Experience working directly with payment partners or third-party integrations - you have read API documentation, sat in technical QAs and held your own in those conversations.
Proven ability to ship in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment: you set your own direction, manage stakeholders without a playbook and keep moving when things change.
Strong written and verbal communication in English and Spanish
Familiarity with specific LATAM payment rails such as PIX (Brazil), SPEI (Mexico) or PSE (Colombia).
Experience at a remittance-focused scale-up
Portuguese fluency.
