This is a high-impact leadership role at the heart of how thousands of Australian merchants engage with Tyro every day. You’ll be responsible for ensuring our in-store technology is secure, scalable, compliant and merchant-friendly — while modernising platforms and accelerating innovation across devices, APIs and partner integrations.

• Drive uptime, transaction success and overall ecosystem reliability across in-store payments.

• Embed strong engineering practices to improve quality, maintainability and delivery velocity across device and mobile platforms.

• Own risk management and compliance across device software, mobile applications and in-store platforms, ensuring alignment with APRA, PCI-DSS and scheme requirements.

• Collaborate closely with Product, Data and Operations to deliver customer-centric innovation, including AI and automation opportunities.

• Build, mentor and inspire high-performing leaders and teams, fostering accountability, autonomy and a strong performance culture.

What you'll bring

• Extensive senior technology leadership experience within payments, fintech or another regulated environment.

• Deep expertise across device ecosystems, payment terminals or embedded systems, with a strong understanding of integration architectures.

• Experience leading large-scale, mission-critical platforms with high uptime and transaction performance requirements.

• Strong knowledge of compliance and risk frameworks relevant to payments (e.g. PCI-DSS, APRA, card schemes).

• Proven ability to modernise legacy platforms and drive technology transformation at scale.

• Experience working with external technology partners and managing complex integration ecosystems.

• A strong customer mindset, with a track record of delivering secure, intuitive and high-performing payment or merchant experiences.

• Exceptional stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence at executive level and align cross-functional teams.
