Senior Technical Product Manager

The Verification squad sits at the heart of SumUp's ability to operate across 37 markets. We own the systems that determine whether a merchant's identity is verified, whether that verification meets the regulatory bar in every market we operate in, and whether the decisions made along the way are auditable and defensible. This isn't a coordination role — it's a high-ownership position where you'll set the product direction for a domain that is legally complex, strategically important, and actively transforming. If you want to own something that genuinely matters — where your decisions shape compliance outcomes, merchant experience, and platform capability simultaneously — this is that role. ## What you'll do

• Define and lead the product strategy for the verification platform, sequencing compliance obligations, platform modernisation, and merchant experience improvements with clear intent
• Own the regulatory surface across multiple markets — monitoring evolving KYC/KYB, AML, and eIDAS requirements and converting them into structured, buildable scope before they become blockers
• Make the hard calls where UX and backend decisions conflict, holding coherence across the full product surface and owning the outcome when trade-offs are required
• Run lean, autonomous discovery — synthesising user research, data signals, and regulatory guidance into decision-ready artefacts independently
• Co-lead the squad alongside a strong Engineering Manager, driving platform modernisation and reducing technical debt deliberately
