**Are you the one?**
Imagine leading the launch of a next-generation biometric payment terminal that redefines how identity, access, and payments converge. At Nethermind, we’re building a universal, privacy-preserving payment and identity device—the Palm-as-Wallet (PaW)—that integrates blockchain, secure biometrics, and hardware into a seamless user experience.
We're looking for a product leader who thrives at the intersection of hardware, identity, and finance. You will take a breakthrough concept—a biometric payment terminal—from prototype to general brand, defining the product roadmap, guiding development, and crafting a go-to-market strategy that spans retail, quick commerce, and beyond.
If you’re passionate about launching hardware-first products, understand the complexities of payments or electronic devices, and want to shape the future of how people access, verify, and transact—this is your moment.
**Responsibilities**:
- ** Product Ownership & Vision**
Drive the end-to-end strategy and lifecycle of the biometric payment terminal (PaW), from prototype through global deployment. Translate our bold vision for privacy-preserving, biometric-enabled payments into a tangible, market-ready product.
- ** Go-To-Market Strategy**
Define and execute launch plans for the payment terminal, beginning with high-impact use cases such as retail, gas stations, and quick commerce. Navigate licensing, pilot programs, pricing, and channel strategy.
- ** Stakeholder & Partnership Management**
Collaborate with regulators, fintech partners, hardware vendors, retailers, and NGOs. Champion partnerships with payment networks (e.g., Visa, Mastercard) and fintech infrastructure providers to ensure compliance and seamless settlement.
- ** Compliance & Regulation**




Guide product development with a clear understanding of regulatory frameworks (GDPR, KYC/AML, CE/FCC), ensuring data security and trust at every layer of the product.
- ** Brand & Ecosystem Development**
Build a globally recognisable identity-first hardware product. Own the user experience and branding across onboarding, checkout, and support touchpoints.
- ** Iterative Launch & Feedback Loops**
Lead pilot deployments (Poland and beyond), gather market feedback, and adapt the roadmap in collaboration with engineering and design.
**Skills**:
- 5-15 years in product management, ideally with a focus on **payments, consumer hardware**, or **electronic device launches**.
- Proven experience bringing a **0-to-1 product** to market, from early prototyping through mass deployment.
- Deep understanding of **fintech, payments architecture**, and/or **identity verification protocols**.
- Comfortable working with teams across **hardware, firmware, and backend software** domains.
- Ability to distill complex systems (e.g., blockchain-based transactions, biometric matching, edge devices) into simple product narratives and roadmaps.
- Experience working with **embedded systems**, device security, and **compliance frameworks** (e.g., CE, FCC, GDPR).
- Strong analytical and project management skills. Bonus: experience with pilot programs, incentive design, or regulatory negotiations.




- Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills—able to work across legal, engineering, marketing, and external partners.
- Strategic thinker with a bias toward action and execution.
**Nice to have**:
- Experience launching **payment terminals**, biometric products, or point-of-sale systems.
- Knowledge of **blockchain**, **zero-knowledge proofs**, or **digital identity protocols**.
- Past work in scaling B2B hardware products across geographies.
- Exposure to emerging markets or regulated industries (alcohol, finance, healthcare).

- ** Global and Diverse Workforce**: You'll work with people from various backgrounds and cultures.
