Job Description:
We are seeking a specialized Biller Product Manager – TV & Electricity to own and scale PalmPay’s digital utility payments, with a core focus on Cable TV (DStv, GOtv, Startimes) and Electricity (PHED, IKEDC, EEDC, etc.). This role will combine product thinking with deep operational execution, channel logic design, and hands-on tool usage to ensure these services remain reliable, fast, and user-friendly.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead the product vision and strategy for TV and Electricity bill payments within the app
- Design and maintain channel access logic for electricity and TV billers to optimize for uptime, cost efficiency, and success rate
- Collaborate with BD and technical teams to evaluate and integrate new electricity distribution companies (DisCos) and cable service providers
- Monitor service availability and proactively resolve downtime or integration issues in collaboration with engineering and operations
- Perform routine operational changes (pricing updates, API switchovers, feature flags) using internal tools within SLA timelines.
- Own key metrics: transaction success rate, Mean Time to Recovery (MTTR), channel switch turnaround time, monthly transacting users (MTU), and complaints rate
- Leverage SQL or dashboards to analyze service drop-offs, root cause errors, and user behavior
- Define product requirements (PRDs) and lead testing of new biller flows or fixes
- Stay up to date on DisCo-specific rules (e.g., token formats, KCTs, meter types) and DStv/GOTV logic (e.g., IUC rules, bouquet changes)
- Drive user-centric optimizations (e.g., retry flows, saved meter numbers, alert messages)
Requirements:
- 3–5+ years of product management experience, ideally in fintech, utilities, or telco environments
- Familiarity with the TV and electricity billing landscape in Nigeria, including APIs, integration protocols, and regional variances in DisCo behavior
- Strong understanding of channel routing logic and how to evaluate and shift between service providers
- Proficiency in data tools—SQL, Excel, or BI tools like Metabase or Looker
- Comfortable with admin tool usage to apply service or pricing changes without dev support
- Excellent documentation, testing, and operational planning capabilities
- High ownership mindset—responds quickly to incidents and proactively implements long-term solutions
Preferred:
- Experience working directly with electricity distribution companies or cable TV providers
- Familiarity with product-led MTU growth tactics for utility services
- Experience in customer journey mapping for transactional and error-prone services
