KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Run the day-to-day operations of card programs for our customers, including issuing and activating cards, handling replacements, and ensuring cards are delivered correctly.

• Serve as the first line of support when something goes wrong: investigate card issues reported by customers or partners, coordinate with internal teams and external stakeholders, and drive issues through resolution.

• Monitor card program performance, identify unusual trends or recurring issues, and escalate and resolve problems before they impact customers.

• Work closely with banks, card networks, processors, and internal engineering teams to support new launches, testing, and ongoing program changes.

• Help test new card features and integrations by following operational checklists, reproducing issues, and confirming that fixes work as expected.

• Maintain accurate records, documentation, and operational workflows to ensure processes are completed correctly and on time.

REQUIREMENTS

• 3–5 years of experience in operations, payments, fintech, or high-volume customer support (technical or operational).

• Strong attention to detail and follow-through — you take ownership and ensure tasks get completed.

• Clear, professional written and verbal communication skills, with comfort working across partners, customers, and internal teams.

• Ability to operate in a fast-moving environment, manage multiple requests at once, and escalate issues when needed.

• Team-oriented mindset with curiosity and a willingness to learn across operations, product, compliance, and engineering.

• Customer-focused and reliability-minded — you care deeply about systems working correctly and clients having a great experience.

NICE TO HAVES

• Exposure to card payments or card networks (e.g., Visa, Mastercard), including concepts like BINs, tokenization, or PCI.

• Experience using ticketing systems or operational tools (e.g., Zendesk, Jira, Salesforce).

• Prior work with issuing platforms, processors, or banking partners.

• Familiarity with disputes, chargebacks, or basic fraud monitoring concepts.
