The Manager of AI Ecosystem & Developer Partnerships will build and grow Visa's relationships with the companies and communities defining AI commerce. This role is for someone who is already in the AI ecosystem — you've built agents or developer tools, you know the people building these platforms, and you can move at the speed this space demands.

You will work at the intersection of technical depth and commercial partnership, owning Visa's engagement with AI companies, developer platforms, agent infrastructure builders, and the communities where the future of AI commerce is being shaped. You will structure and execute partnerships that embed Visa capabilities natively into AI products and workflows — and build the proof-of-concepts that make those integrations real.

This is an opportunity to join Visa's newly created Global Growth Products and Partnerships team. The team runs a developer lab, ships prototypes, and works directly with the builders at the frontier of AI commerce. We're looking for someone who wants to build alongside us.

The ideal candidate has shipped something in the AI ecosystem — an agent, an MCP integration, a developer tool — and can move fluidly between a technical architecture conversation and a commercial term sheet. You thrive in ambiguity and are energized by problems that don't have answers yet.
