Director, Partner Integrations

Aevi is the independent in-person payment orchestration platform: one product, one platform, working across hardware, acquirers, and processors anywhere in the world. We are building a Product & Solutions function to turn that platform capability into scalable revenue, and we need someone to own the integration engine that makes it possible. As Director, Partner Integrations, you will own the end-to-end process by which ISVs, POS providers, and enterprise partners integrate with Aevi across UK and EU markets. That means building the structure, standards, and documentation that let us scale our integration base without scaling our headcount, and it means being the honest, technically credible voice in the room when a commercial conversation needs grounding in reality. This is not a support role. It sits at the intersection of commercial, product, and engineering, and it requires someone who is as comfortable scoping a partner integration on a customer call as they are raising a product gap ticket with an engineering team. What you will do Own the end-to-end partner integration lifecycle (including customers, Acquirers and processors), from initial qualification and scoping through delivery to production handover Define and enforce integration standards that create a consistent, high-quality experience for every partner we onboard Work alongside pre-sales to qualify integration requests before commitments are made, and scope technical requirements in enough depth to make honest, documented delivery assessments Identify the difference between a product gap and a partner integration issue, and route each one appropriately Build and maintain integration documentation, welcome pack templates, and Hello World reference environments that let partners hit the ground running Create a feedback loop between support, documentation, and product so that recurring integration issues drive improvements rather than just tickets Work directly with engineering, pre-sales, and product to make sure integration standards and delivery commitments stay grounded in what the platform can actually do What we are looking for Essential Senior-level background in a payments integration, systems integration, or partner solutions role, with real card present payment experience Practical API and integration knowledge: able to read and interrogate specs, reproduce issues, and diagnose where in a stack a problem lives Proven track record of owning and improving integration processes or partner onboarding frameworks Comfortable on both sides of the commercial and engineering boundary: not purely an engineer, not purely a commercial person Clear, accurate written communication that produces external-quality documentation without editorial support Desirable Experience in the fuel, convenience, or retail POS vertical Exposure to card-not-present flows, processor connectivity, or payment scheme certification Experience building or growing an integration team in a scaling business
