Payment Operations Lead

Payment Operations Lead Global expansion is broken. Without a local company, conversion rates fall, costs rise, and compliance gets messy. Outpost fixes it. Selling internationally is a maze of tax, payments, and operational friction. Most brands avoid it, or expand slowly and expensively. Outpost is your modular back office for global commerce. Pick only what you need - tax, payments, treasury, or operations - and unlock new markets without the overhead. Sometimes we become liable for a merchant's taxes. Sometimes we become the legal reseller in each market and carry the payments, tax and compliance risk. Other times, we give you the tools to do it yourself. We go live wherever a merchant needs to sell next, for digital and physical goods. That means we own the full stack - payments, tax, compliance, treasury, and merchant experience. Sell anything, anywhere. Without compromise. 🧠 The RoleWe're looking for a Payment Operations hire to own the part of Outpost where the money actually moves. When we become the legal reseller in a market, we take the payment. Every merchant we onboard gets its own merchant ID and its own merchant category code, never pooled into one shared code, which is exactly why our approval rates beat the alternatives. Keeping that true across every market, every processor and every merchant is the job. This is a quantitative role in an operational seat. You'll live in the transaction data: why authorisation rates differ by market, issuer, card type and hour of day, what a routing change is actually worth, where a 40 basis point cost difference is hiding, which decline codes are recoverable and which are noise. Then you'll act on it, with processors, with engineering, and with merchants. You won't be siloed. Payments at Outpost touches pricing, treasury, tax and the product roadmap, and you'll be pulled into all of it. But your edge is the numbers, and we want someone whose first instinct on any problem is to pull the data and model it
