About The Position

WEX is an innovative payments and technology company helping our customers simplify the business of running a business in a rapidly changing environment; freeing them to spend more time, with less worry, on the things they love. As we lean into our mission to “simplify the business of running a business”, WEX is focused on simplifying and reimagining experiences for both our customers and employees. We are looking for a Sr. Product Manager to own the execution and delivery of the Customer and Enterprise team’s billing and corporate systems product roadmap. This is not a traditional product role—it is an opportunity to architect the future of finance at WEX. We are embarking on a multi-year transformation to build a unified, real-time billing platform that replaces legacy ERP and bespoke systems with an intelligent, adaptive ecosystem. This platform will serve as the foundation for autonomous billing —where data is continuously reconciled, insights are generated in real time, and decision-making is augmented by AI. As a Product Manager, you will lead the vision and execution of this transformation, owning the evolution of our core billing systems. You will shape how AI and machine learning are embedded at the core of our billing architecture—unlocking predictive, prescriptive, and eventually self-optimizing workflows that redefine how our operations teams deliver globally. About the Team Join the Customer and Enterprise Team as we reimagine WEX from the inside out. We are building a future where customer and enterprise systems are seamlessly connected, data flows intelligently across the organization, and innovation is driven through rapid experimentation and bold thinking. Our culture is grounded in agility, curiosity, and collaboration—where diverse perspectives fuel breakthrough ideas, and where we continuously challenge the status quo to deliver transformative value at scale.
