Job Description

Visa and its subsidiaries have Identity, Authorization, and Fraud data spread across multiple systems built and acquired over the years. These rich datasets, when mined through Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence, enable network-agnostic solutions to improve authorization rates for merchants and partners in the ecosystem. Identity Graph unifies these internal and external datasets to build a holistic 360-degree view of individuals interacting with the ecosystem, empowering a wide range of use cases in identity-enabled fraud detection, risk management, and future identity innovation.

As a Senior Manager, Product Management, you will own the strategy, roadmap, and execution for Visa’s Identity Graph. You will drive cross-functional alignment, guide global teams, and influence executive stakeholders to deliver scalable solutions that directly impact Visa’s growth, client trust, and competitive advantage. You will be responsible for translating Visa’s data assets into high-value, market-leading identity products while ensuring regulatory alignment, operational excellence, and commercial success.

This role goes beyond product execution — it requires thought leadership in identity and fraud, strong stakeholder influence across all levels of the organization, and the ability to represent Visa in external forums to shape industry standards. You will also play a critical role in defining the business case, revenue impact, and go-to-market strategy, ensuring Identity Graph becomes a foundational capability across Visa’s ecosystem.

This is a hybrid position. Expectation of days in office will be confirmed by your hiring manager.
