If you're ready to do the most ambitious work of your career, join us.
Attributes We ValueWe hire successful builders with founder-like energy who want real impact, accelerated learning, and true ownership. You bring strong role-related expertise and sharp thinking, and you're motivated by our mission and operating principles. You move fast with good judgment, dig deep with curiosity, and make decisions from first principles, balancing speed and rigor.
You're humble and collaborative; turn zero‑to‑one ideas into real products, and you "get stuff done" end-to-end. You use AI to work smarter and solve problems faster. Here, you'll tackle complex, high‑visibility problems with exceptional teammates and grow your career as we build the future of global banking. If that sounds like you, let's build what's next.
Who are you
As an Enterprise Strategy & GTM leader within the Global Revenue Strategy department, you will help drive the commercial strategy and GTM for our most strategic enterprise pursuits. Partner with Enterprise Lead, AEs, and Solution Architects to shape the win plan, align our platform to customer needs, and execute high-impact pursuits - from discovery through contracting - while informing product strategy with market insight.
What you'll do
Lead deal strategy: Define win themes, stakeholder maps, and executive alignment for complex, multi-threaded pursuits.
Orchestrate RFPs/RFIs: Own the pursuit narrative, differentiation, and commercial terms; coordinate Solution Architects for technical sections and validations.
Structure deal economics: Build ROI/TCO, pricing architectures (usage/SaaS/hybrid), and commercial constructs; partner with Deal Desk, Legal, and Risk.
Align solution fit: Co-develop high-level solution scope with Solution Architects; confirm feasibility, phase plans, and risks/mitigations to ensure customer outcomes.
Drive executive engagement: Lead C-suite briefings, POVs, and workshops; establish trusted relationships with business and technical stakeholders.
Codify "how we win": Produce playbooks, battlecards, competitor tear-downs, and vertical white papers; enable Enterprise AEs and regions.
Inform product & roadmap: Synthesize enterprise requirements and market trends; translate into clear use cases and prioritization for Product.
Govern the pursuit: Run stage gates, resourcing, timelines, and handoff to delivery with clear success criteria and SOW quality.
Measure impact: Track win rate, cycle time, ACV/GP, multi-product attach, and pipeline influenced; iterate plays based on results.
What you'll bring
We're looking for people who meet the minimum qualifications for this role. The preferred qualifications are great to have, but are not mandatory.
Minimum Qualifications
Bachelor's degree in a STEM discipline, with strong academic achievements
8–12+ years in enterprise GTM/strategy, pre-sales consulting, or product strategy
Executive engagement skills and presence, with an ability to establish strong relationships with key decision makers and build credibility at all levels
Technical fluency (not a pure Solution Architect): Acquiring, issuing, wallets/treasury/FX; comfortable engaging at an architectural level to ensure solution fit
Preferred Qualifications
Knowledge of the payments domain / financial services will be advantageous
At some point in your career you will have been hands on developing product solutions either internally or in a consulting role
Passionate about learning and actively seeks out knowledge
Ability to work independently and confidently to develop a path forward with customers under ambiguous circumstances.
Strategic and creative thinker who can proactively identify challenges and maintain a positive approach when facing difficult obstacles.
