Experience leading multiple product domains and senior product managers in a global, high-scale environment.
A proven record of improving conversion, retention, revenue, payment performance, or consumer platform adoption.
Deep understanding of subscription economics, payment processing, billing, PSPs, payment orchestration, fraud, identity, authentication, and account systems.
Experience building reusable platform capabilities across multiple products, devices, markets, and partner channels.
Strong judgment balancing fan experience, growth, reliability, security, privacy, compliance, and cost.
Demonstrated ability to influence Engineering, Finance, Legal, Security, Trust & Safety, CX, Marketing, and executive stakeholders.

Responsibilities

Define the product strategy for subscription monetization, checkout, pricing, offers, upgrades, downgrades, win-back, cross-sell, and localized payment experiences.
Improve the end-to-end journey from intent through conversion, activation, renewal, and re-engagement.
Expand payment-method coverage in strategic markets while preserving a coherent global platform.
Establish experimentation and measurement practices that connect product changes to subscribers, conversion, ARPU, retention, and revenue.
Partner with commercial and regional leaders on market-specific opportunities and scalable global solutions.
Own the vision for unified consumer identity across web, mobile, TV, games, manga, partners, and emerging platforms.
Improve registration, login, passwordless and OTP access, account recovery, session management, authentication, and cross-platform continuity.
Define account, household, profile, consent, and identity models that support fan convenience, personalization, trust, and growth.
Balance frictionless access with protection against account takeover, credential abuse, unauthorized access, and other identity risks.
Establish shared identity services and integration patterns that enable product teams to build consistently.
Own the product strategy for payment processing, billing, payment-method management, recurring charges, refunds, dunning, retries, account updater capabilities, and payment orchestration.
Improve payment approval and renewal success while reducing passive churn, payment failures, chargebacks, fraud losses, and finance costs.
Develop an intelligent multi-PSP strategy, including routing, tokenization, failover, retry logic, risk-aware decisioning, and payment-method optimization.
Enable reliable global expansion through localized payment methods, installments, alternative billing models, and partner integrations.
Ensure payment products meet applicable PCI DSS, privacy, financial, and regional regulatory requirements.

Improve service reliability, observability, operational tooling, and launch readiness.
Create product standards and APIs that reduce fragmentation and increase delivery velocity across teams.
Partner with Engineering on architecture-adjacent product strategy without assuming ownership of technical implementation.
Partner with Trust & Safety, Security, Legal, Privacy, Finance, and CX to embed protection into identity and monetization journeys.
Set product requirements for fraud mitigation, chargeback prevention, account protection, payment risk, abuse prevention, and privacy-aware experiences.
Ensure risk controls are proportional, explainable, measurable, and designed to minimize false positives and fan friction.
Establish executive visibility into revenue integrity, account protection, payment health, and customer-impacting incidents.
Lead and develop a high-performing organization of product leaders and individual contributors across monetization, payments, identity, and core services.
Set clear ownership boundaries, decision rights, prioritization mechanisms, and outcome-based roadmaps.
Create a unified operating rhythm across strategy, planning, execution, launch, measurement, and learning.
