Job Description:
Thought Machine’s mission is bold - to properly and permanently rid the world’s banks of legacy technology. To achieve this, we have developed the foundations of modern banking through core and payments technology which run natively in the cloud. What we are attempting is hard and means we need great people working together to build great technology. We have grown rapidly in the past few years - growing our team to more than 550 individuals across offices in London, New York, Singapore and Sydney. We have raised more than $500m in funding and are now valued at $2.7bn. Our investors include Molten Ventures, Eurazeo, Intesa Sanpaolo, Temasek, Nyca Partners, JPMorgan Chase Strategic Investments, Standard Chartered Ventures, and more. We have created a culture enabling our team to produce the best work in the industry, ensuring we have fun along the way. We're regularly cited as having a fantastic workplace culture and have been recognised by Sifted magazine as having one of the highest Glassdoor ratings for a UK fintech company and the most generous employee share package in the industry. Global Finance Magazine named us one of the world’s most innovative fintechs, and the Financial Times recognised us as one of Europe’s fastest-growing companies in 2023. The Vault Payments team at Thought Machine is responsible for shaping and delivering the product strategy to enable Thought Machine to better serve banks currently facing challenges with legacy and siloed payment systems. Our vision is to revolutionise the way that financial institutions process payments by challenging assumptions and building a world-class universal payment engine, Thought Machine’s second product - Vault Payments. You’ll be joining at a pivotal moment as Vault Payments has gone live with its first clients, and we’re shaping the next phase of its evolution. The ideal candidate is a self-starter with strong commercial instincts, capable of thinking strategically and acting decisively to drive the product forward. You’ll own the roadmap and delivery of products and applications in the Vault Payments portfolio, and work closely with Go-to-Market and Engineering leadership to drive revenue and product delivery. You will work cross-functionally with partnerships, compliance, legal, and partner product teams to build key use cases to delight our clients. This role is suited to someone who can wear many hats. You will primarily be responsible for defining, building, and delivering products working in lockstep with the Vault Payments engineering team, however you will also be expected to support our GTM and marketing teams to build lead generation campaigns, join client calls and help pitch and sell existing and future products, work with sales engineers to define compelling demos, and managing key product partnerships to augment the product offering.
