Head of Banking Operations to own Crimson ops end-to-end, manage bank partner relationships, own the P&L for Crimson, and drive the operational roadmap for user outcomes and engagement. This is a player-coach role requiring strategy setting and operational detail involvement.

What you'd actually do

  1. Own the bank partner relationship portfolio: manage our existing partners and evaluate new ones as we expand into new products and geographies. Support negotiations on commercial terms, operational SLAs, and integration roadmaps
  2. Run money movement at scale: own the operational health of ACH, OCT, AFT, and cash rails. Drive cost-per-transaction down and reliability up.
  3. Lead banking operations execution: build the playbook, SLA, and automation for disputes, suspensions, and support
  4. Own the P&L: set the budget, manage banking partner spend, and drive the cost-efficiency roadmap. Hold the function accountable to clear financial targets.
  5. Influence the roadmap: partner with Product and Engineering on payments infrastructure investments, and with Legal & Compliance on regulatory strategy.
