Founded in 2017, TripArc is a $750 million privately held company that powers the top Travel Agencies and Tour Operators in North America. Our expansive and growing network empowers seamless access to a comprehensive range of travel options and services globally with over $750 million transactions annually - all at the industry's best rates. As an industry leader in technology, purchasing, finance, HR and marketing, we know how to deliver solutions to travel professionals in the most effective way possible.
TripArc's goals are simple: to make our network of over 1400 travel entities more profitable, efficient, and help them create truly unique travel for their clients. This is a hybrid role requiring 1 to 2 days a week at our office located in Downtown, Toronto.
ABOUT THE ROLE
TripArc's travel booking platforms are used every day by thousands of travel professionals to plan, price, book, and manage trips for their clients. We're re-envisioning them as a single AI-powered platform. We're hiring a Senior Product Manager for Trip Management, which covers everything after a client says yes. You'll own our new payments, booking, invoicing, and accounting systems, set the goals for the area, and decide what we build next to reach them.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Set the product strategy for payments, booking, invoicing, and accounting for the next 12 to 18 months.
- Define OKRs for the area, such as payment success rate, and report progress to leadership.
- Own the roadmap: decide what to build next to move those OKRs and what to defer, using pilot feedback and production data, and explain the trade-offs.
- Find where AI can do useful work in the product that truly moves our goals and OKRs, instead of rebuilding how the old platform works.
- Make the product decisions on how money moves (deposits, final payments, refunds, credits, currencies), and record them so everyone works from the same answer.
- Lead cross-functional work with engineering, architecture, QA, UX, and delivery from problem definition to launch.
- Work with Finance, Accounting, and 24/7 support on reconciliation, statements, refunds, and audit needs.
- Plan the move of travel professionals and in-progress trips off our legacy platform.
QUALIFICATIONS
Must have:
- 6+ years in product management, including 3+ owning payments, billing, invoicing, or another product that handles financial transactions.
- A track record of setting OKRs and prioritizing a roadmap against them with senior stakeholders, including Finance.
- Working knowledge of the payment lifecycle: authorization, capture, deposits, refunds, chargebacks, and reconciliation.
- Good judgement on where AI belongs in a money flow, knowing that amounts and ledger entries must stay exact and auditable.
- You use AI tools in your own work every day.
- Clear writing: you can turn a messy discussion into a short decision record.
- You're comfortable reading API documentation and can pull BI data to check things yourself.
Nice to have:
- You've shipped a product feature built on AI or machine learning.
- Accounting knowledge and experience with ERP systems.
- Integrations with payment providers.
- Travel industry experience, especially supplier bookings and deposit schedules.
- Pricing and payments in more than one currency.
- Fraud and risk models or automated reconciliation.
- Experience replacing a legacy system while it stays live.
