About The Role

We're building Deel's payroll operations for LATAM countries to capture a significant market opportunity. This is a greenfield build. You'll be the founding product leader for a new country, working with a dedicated engineering team to design and launch payroll, HR, time tracking, and related products that serve LATAM countries' complex regulatory and business environment.

As Country PM, you'll own end-to-end product strategy and execution. You'll work across compliance, engineering, payroll operations, HR, and time tracking to translate local requirements into products that work. You'll make critical trade-off decisions: what to build first, what gets deferred, and how to hit market timelines without overcommitting.

The context

LATAM countries represents both significant opportunity and technical complexity. You'll be working with high-value customers who need the full Deel experience, not just a payroll engine. Their requirements will expose gaps between what works globally and what LATAM countries actually needs. Scaling those solutions becomes the next phase.

We're building on Deel's internal infrastructure, which means you'll coordinate across multiple product teams and navigate technical complexity that a third-party vendor would hide. You own translating LATAM countries's requirements into engineering work and prioritizing ruthlessly against your team's capacity.

What You'll Do

• Define product strategy for the LATAM market across payroll, HR, time, and services
• Work with your dedicated engineering team to execute on the roadmap
• Coordinate across Product (payroll engine), Time, HRIS, and Services teams to align on dependencies
• Break complex requirements into iterative pieces. Ship early, learn from customers, iterate
• Own the relationship with key accounts, understanding their needs and validating your solutions
• Work with sales, implementation, and local compliance teams to ensure we're building something that can scale
• Think like an entrepreneur. This is a new market opportunity, and you're building the playbook from scratch
• Use AI to speed up the build, getting rules in and scale in collaboration with local compliance teams.
  
  

Must Have

What we're looking for

• Based in LATAM (time zone alignment and cultural fluency matter for this role)
• Fluent Spanish and/or Portuguese speaker
• Comfort navigating ambiguity and making good decisions with incomplete information
• Strong stakeholder management. You'll coordinate across teams and external partners
• Pragmatism and systems thinking. You need to understand how payroll, HR, time tracking, and compliance fit together
  
  

Ideal To Have

• Experience with Brazilian and wider LATAM payroll, tax, or labor regulations
• Prior experience building payroll systems or working in payroll product roles
• Track record launching new products or entering new markets
• Experience with enterprise customers or complex business requirements
