Kora is a global fiat and stablecoin payment infrastructure - the rails that financial institutions, fintechs, and enterprises use to move money across borders reliably and at scale. We operate across multiple markets globally.
We are not a payments app. We are not a wallet. We are the layer underneath: the settlement infrastructure, the compliance engine, the connectivity that makes cross-border payments work for the companies that build on top of us.
Our vision, which is at the core of what we do every day, is to create a world void of digital financial barriers. We are committed to delivering reliable, secure, and easy-to-use digital financial solutions to every single customer with a guarantee that it is improving their lives. To achieve this mission, we need people like you. Yes, you!
We strongly believe in our ability to find Water in the Desert and pick the Sands in the Ocean.
We value positive energy and clear communication, and are committed to building an inclusive environment for people from every background.
We are looking for a Senior Product Manager to join our growing Product Management team at Kora. We are seeking a Senior Product Manager to lead our Pay-ins and Payouts products.
As the Product Manager for Pay-ins, you’ll be responsible for optimizing the current payment methods we support and building new ways for our merchants to accept payments.
As the Product Manager for Payouts, you’ll be responsible for optimizing and improving the current payout channel we support while building new channels in other countries we are expanding to.
Product Managers at Kora own the end-to-end problem they are trying to solve with their team. As the Senior Product Manager for either Payouts or Pay-ins, you will develop and execute the product strategy that enables seamless payment experiences for our users.
This role is a unique opportunity to impact how global and local businesses accept payments from customers all over Africa.
