  • Close platform-distribution deals that embed Mercury natively into partner products and reach thousands of businesses through a single agreement.
  • Own senior executive and C-suite outreach, relationship development, and network activation to open doors and advance deals.
  • Drive partnerships through the full lifecycle, including outreach, business case development, term negotiation, legal close, integration scoping, and launch.
  • Architect bespoke partnership structures including embedded finance arrangements, deep API integrations, co-distribution models, and joint product experiences.
  • Use Mercury’s product suite as negotiation currency to match banking, payments, cards, APIs, MCP, and CLI tooling to partner needs.

  • Ability to operate in ambiguity and build a new function from scratch.
  • Technical credibility to discuss APIs, integration architecture, and embedding financial infrastructure, even without writing code.
