Job description
You see resilience as a discipline, not a reaction.

As the Resilience, Release Governance & Business Continuity Product Manager within Payments Digital & Design, you serve as the bridge between Product, Technology, Operations, Risk, and Executive Leadership. You set the standards and run the forums that drive disciplined production change, continuity planning, and coordinated incident leadership across a complex global environment, partnering across regions and time zones in a follow-the-sun model. You’ll drive outcomes through influence and coordination, without direct ownership of the underlying platforms.
