Send a specialist requestWe provide access to people who have worked on financial products, online payments, acquiring, issuing, embedded finance, open banking, financial applications, marketplaces, e-commerce, and transactional systems. These specialists understand not only backlog and roadmap management, but also payment economics, regulation, integrations, risk, and operations.
We help define whether the project needs a Product Manager, Product Owner, payments expert, payment architect, payment operations specialist, acquiring or issuing expert, checkout specialist, reconciliation specialist, merchant experience expert, or someone to support a new payment implementation. We match profiles to the product, market, technology, and stage of development.
Specialists from z3x Talent Pool can support discovery, customer needs analysis, customer journey design, payment partner selection, requirements definition, roadmap prioritisation, collaboration with technology teams, testing, implementation, conversion optimisation, and product development after launch.
A product or payments specialist can join the project part-time, full-time, for a defined stage, as an interim product lead, payments advisor, member of the product team, or candidate for a permanent role. We help align the model with project pace, scope of responsibility, budget, and team needs.
We start with a discussion about the product, customer segments, customer journey, business model, payment flows, integrations, partners, regulation, data, roadmap, and current team setup. We define whether the company needs product, payments, operational, technical, or combined capability.
We check the availability of specialists who have worked on similar financial or payment products. We review previous products, scope of responsibility, segment knowledge, integration types, partner experience, seniority level, and fit with the organisation’s way of working.
You receive selected profiles with a clear description of product and payments experience, previous projects, areas of specialisation, availability, and recommended engagement model. Discussions focus on which product, stage, or problem the person should help develop.
Once a person is selected, we support the definition of scope, priorities, ways of working, collaboration cadence, expected outcomes, and onboarding. If the project requires additional capabilities, we can match further roles from z3x Talent Pool, including compliance, technology, data, delivery, or business development.
In financial products, a strong user journey is only part of the work. Transaction costs, conversion, risk, security, integrations, compliance, settlement, chargebacks, reconciliation, and partner requirements matter just as much. That is why product and payments should be designed together, not treated as separate worlds.
