Product Manager, Sea

Stripe Stripe · Fintech · Singapore · 8262 APAC - PM

Product Manager for Stripe's financial infrastructure products in Southeast Asia, focusing on localizing core offerings and building new capabilities. Requires deep understanding of SEA payments, regulatory landscape, and user behavior, with experience in product strategy, roadmap ownership, and cross-functional collaboration.

What you'd actually do

  1. Own the SEA product roadmap: identify the highest-leverage opportunities across payments, platform, and developer experience for the region, and build the case for investment
  2. Partner with engineering to ship — you'll drive specs, prioritization, and execution with a high degree of hands-on involvement
  3. Be the regional expert inside Stripe: synthesize user research, market data, regulatory developments, and competitive dynamics into clear product direction
  4. Work directly with merchants, developers, and partners across SEA to understand their needs at the ground level — not just through data, but through relationships
  5. Navigate the regulatory and infrastructure constraints that are unique to each SEA market and translate them into product requirements
