Mastercard Developers is the single gateway for Mastercard partners to access a diverse range of payment, data, loyalty, and security APIs. The team is responsible for delivering an experience that ensures developers can quickly find the right API, assess its technical capabilities, and integrate it into new and innovative solutions.

Your role will be to manage API governance. This role requires you to work across various product and engineering stakeholders to ensure our services are delivered with the highest quality and performance standards. Additionally, you will work with Mastercard's Product Managers on ways to improve the quality of their APIs for the developer community we serve.

2. Conduct market research to identify developer needs, industry trends, and competitive analysis.
3. Juggle the interests of multiple stakeholders, including developers, internal end-users, and business unit leaders.
4. Perform analysis on Mastercard's APIs, reviewing performance against our standards and identifying areas of improvement for product teams.
5. Identify areas for continuous improvement, including opportunities for automation, self-service, or process efficiency.
6. Facilitate regular sessions with all product teams to review API Governance objectives and improvements.
7. Provide ad-hoc reporting for senior management regarding the status and quality of Mastercard's APIs.
8. Identify opportunities, where possible, to sell/market our programs externally.

All About You

1. Understanding of APIs, programming languages, and software development principles.
2. Ability to develop and implement long-term strategies for API governance.
3. Ability to analyze data, identify trends, and make data-driven decisions.
4. Excellent verbal and written communication to convey technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
5. Experience in agile-based product development.
6. Technical competence in the areas of APIs and payments.
7. Ability to quickly understand, assess, simplify, and articulate complex business and technical challenges/solutions.

Corporate Security Responsibility

- Abide by Mastercard's security policies and practices;
- Ensure the confidentiality and integrity of the information being accessed;
- Report any suspected information security violation or breach;
- Complete all periodic mandatory security trainings in accordance with Mastercard's guidelines.
