About the Product & Tech Organisation
Our Product & Technology organisation drives the development of Trustly’s products. The cross functional teams collectively work with innovative ideas, development of products and platform and set the vision and strategy for the problem spaces they own. The Product & Tech organisation consists of a bit more than 200 people spread across Stockholm, Lisbon, Örebro, Paris, London and Izmir.
All teams consist of a product manager, an engineering manager, a lead developer and engineers. Some teams also have designers and analytics competence in the team. They all work closely together to enable new products and features within existing products within Europe and to make sure the payment platform runs without interruptions and with high performance.
