Richard Santos
Group Product Manager - Finance at Stone
São Paulo, Brazil
Summary
👤
SeniorRichard Santos is a finance-focused Group Product Manager with 13 years of technology experience, who transitioned from eight years as a software developer into product and people leadership. Based in São Paulo, he currently drives Stone Co’s financial platform across brands like Stone, Pagar.me, TON and Unio, delivering measurable impact such as fiscal optimizations (>R$5M/month) and major regulatory implementations (BCB 246 and 264). He has built settlement and receivables products (including D0 and non-business-day liquidity) that cut costs and recovered significant receivables (>R$40M/year), while scaling teams and KPIs across reconciliations, split and liquidation domains. Comfortable bridging engineering and business, Richard blends hands-on technical roots with structured OKR/KPI-driven product management and has repeatedly formed and developed new cross-functional squads. Not obvious from titles: he progressed through frontend engineering leadership and product specialist roles, which gives him deep empathy for developer workflows and operational reliability in highly regulated financial systems.
