You'll own discovery, requirements, and delivery for products serving telehealth merchants - DTC platforms, hormone therapy, mental health, compounded medications, and similar verticals that sit squarely in the high-risk payments category. This is a discovery-heavy role. We're not looking for someone to manage an existing backlog - we're looking for someone who can go find out what to build: talk to merchants, talk to our internal underwriting, and risk teams, study the competitive and regulatory landscape, and come back with prioritized, well-scoped product bets. What you will own * Market research on the telehealth payments landscape - competitors, processor offerings, sponsor bank appetite, card brand posture, and where the underserved gaps are * User interviews with telehealth merchants, prospective merchants, underwriting analysts, risk officers, and sales - and the synthesis that turns those conversations into product direction * Needs assessment and prioritization - translating discovery into a written roadmap with clear bets, trade-offs, and success metrics * Requirements and user stories for the engineering team - onboarding flows, underwriting automation, risk decisioning, compliance review, and reporting * Product specs for AI/LLM-driven automation in website review, document review, and underwriting triage * Partnering with compliance on requirements driven by Visa, Mastercard, and sponsor bank rules for telehealth and high-risk verticals, * A short note (under 200 words) on a telehealth or high-risk payments product you've shipped - including the discovery work you did, your specific role, and the outcome * Resume or LinkedIn * Hourly or monthly rate expectation Argyle Payments supports payment processing for a wide variety of merchants, including retail, ecommerce, and niche merchants who require more attention, care and monitoring.
