The Data, Security, and Identity Products (DSIP) team at Visa focuses on developing data centric products to drive better outcomes for Visa clients and ultimately their customers. As one of the product portfolios in Visa’s value-added services business, DSIP has experienced high rates of growth year over year and is expected to grow at a significant state over next 5 years. Our products are used to address clients’ needs in the following areas: benchmarking and operations; marketing; underwriting; authorization optimization; and seamless authentication.

In DSIP, we love data and believe it accelerates innovation and empowers individuals, businesses, and economies to thrive. We make the insights from Visa data easy to get so clients can focus on using them, and we connect insights to execution engines so clients can act on them faster. We deliver insights and action through web applications, APIs, and integrations with execution platforms.

We created a commercialization function to accelerate our ability to achieve our revenue goals with solid understanding of product users, buyers, and market opportunities. This commercialization team, affectionately known as Accelerated Commercialization Team (ACT) is made up of 4 primary workstreams:
• Strategy – connect client needs & product value propositions to identify revenue opportunities

Commercialization is a set of overlapping activities that involve multiple functions across the organization simultaneously. This role is for a Sr Analyst/Manager to support the strategy function on our ACT team, working for the Sr Director Commercialization Strategy. This candidate will need to clearly understand the needs our customers, external drivers that impact our business, and the lessons we learned through initial market offerings and logically connect these to implications for our commercialization strategy.
