About this role
About Quidax
Quidax is where money meets limitless possibilities. We’re making it super easy for individuals, businesses, and fintechs in Africa to access crypto. Our goal? Providing real value for our customers today while shaping the future of money.
About the Role
We're looking for a Senior Product Manager to own the Quidax API: the platform that lets other businesses plug crypto and stablecoins straight into their own products.
Picture this. A fintech company wants to give its customers crypto wallets, swaps, and stablecoin payments. They could spend two years and a small fortune building custody, liquidity, and compliance from scratch. Or they could call our API and ship in weeks.
That second option? That's your product.
You'll own the roadmap, work closely with Engineering and Commercial, and make sure merchants trust us to power real money movement for real customers. If you like building the rails other builders depend on, keep reading.
What You'll Be Owning
Know the platform, and the people who use it
First 90 days: get deep on the API. Make test calls, read the docs like a merchant would, and find every spot where integration hurts.
Sit with our biggest merchants. Learn why they use us.
Map the full journey, from first API call to first live transaction, and mark where people drop off.
Own the roadmap for the API
Make the calls on what we build, what we kill, and what we say no to (kindly).
Own pricing and packaging too. Price it so merchants win and so do we.
Ship it, and keep it boringly reliable
Run delivery with Engineering using rituals that stick: sprints, retros, the good stuff.
Grow the number of live merchants and the volume flowing through the API, and have the numbers to back it up.
Hold the line on uptime, security, and compliance. Merchants move their customers' money through us. "Mostly works" isn't a thing.
Make integration super simple (the Enablement bit)
Cut time-to-first-transaction. The faster a merchant goes live, the better the product.
Build docs, sandboxes, and support materials so good that merchants barely need to email us.
Give Sales, Solutions, and Support what they need to win deals and keep merchants happy.
Biggest Challenges You'll Tackle
Here's what you'll be proud to fix:
Building one platform solid enough for a big enterprise and simple enough for a small shop. Both, at once.
Saying no. Stakeholders will ask for a hundred features. You'll ship the right ten.
Moving fast on integrations while risk and compliance stay airtight, across multiple markets and regulators.
Keeping the developer experience world-class while the roadmap, the requests, and the deadlines all pull at you.
What We're Looking For
The must-haves:
5+ years building products in payments, crypto, fintech, or B2B tech.
You've owned an API or developer platform as a product, not just run tickets for one. You get that your customers are developers, and you design for them.
You make calls with data: adoption, feedback, experiments. Gut helps. Numbers decide.
You run tight agile teams and keep delivery smooth when priorities shift. And they will.
You play well with Engineering, Commercial, Legal, and partners. You turn "what the customer needs" into "what we ship."
The nice-to-haves:
You know your way around custody, liquidity, stablecoins, or on/off ramps.
You're comfortable with compliance, risk, or regulatory frameworks in payments or crypto.
You've built for African, LATAM, or Asian markets.
Reporting Line
You'll report to our Head of Product. Day to day, you'll work with Engineering, Commercial, Solutions, and Legal & Compliance, plus the merchants building on top of us. You own the merchant platform roadmap, so the call on what ships is yours to make and defend.
