Overview
Realpage payments is the purpose-built payments engine within the RealPage platform, powering rent, deposit, and fee payments across a broad range of property types. By tightly integrating with RealPage’s property management solutions, RealPage Payments enables property management companies to streamline rent collection, reduce manual processing and fraud risk, and offer residents flexible, digital-first options to pay how, when, and where they prefer.
We sit at the center of where America lives—the software backbone for thousands of property managers and tens of millions of residents. We’re turning that scale into a resident-first fintech platform that goes far beyond payments. This role will lead that transformation, evolving rent from a monthly transaction into a seamless financial journey that helps residents pay, build credit, access new opportunities, and reach the milestones that matter.

Responsibilities
Own the vision, strategy, roadmap, and commercial performance for the Realpage Payments product portfolio, spanning multiple product lines from concept through launch, scale, and lifecycle end-state.
Manage, coach, and develop a team of 3–5 product managers — including hiring, onboarding, goal setting, performance management, and career development — and be accountable for the performance and results of the team.
Allocate people and resources across the portfolio, resolving trade-offs between competing product lines, and set the priorities each product manager is accountable for delivering.
Raise the standard of product craft across the team, establishing consistent practices for discovery, business case development, requirements, backlog quality, and definition of ready, and coaching product managers through complex or ambiguous problems.
Own financial management for the portfolio, including revenue and margin performance, investment cases for new products and initiatives, and partnership with Finance on pricing and packaging strategy.
Define, track, and own portfolio-level key performance indicators (KPIs) — adoption, revenue, margin, client satisfaction, and resident experience — and hold the team accountable to them.
Establish product lifecycle strategies across the portfolio, including migration, rationalization, and sunset decisions, and manage the cross-product dependencies those decisions create.
Drive product introduction and launch readiness across multiple concurrent launches, including go-to-market planning, enablement content, training, and post-launch performance measurement.
Serve as the senior decision maker and escalation point for the portfolio, anticipating product, process, and experience gaps and driving the cross-functional initiatives that close them.
