About Stephen Tamayo

Strategic relationship leader with over a decade of experience across payments, treasury, and securities services — helping global financial institutions, fintechs, and alternative asset managers modernize operations, enhance client experience, and drive growth. At JPMorgan, I’ve led complex client engagements spanning Real-Time Payments (RTP), Push to Card, and Embedded Banking. I’ve advised some of the world’s largest banks, e-commerce platforms, and regulated gaming clients on launching and scaling digital payment strategies, integrating with API-first infrastructure, and navigating regulatory change. Earlier in my career, I managed a portfolio of private equity, hedge fund, insurance, and alternative asset managers, overseeing over $50B in assets under custody. I partnered closely with C-suite executives to deliver tailored solutions across fund administration, cash and liquidity optimization, and investment servicing. A key pillar of my career has been developing the next generation of financial services talent. I’ve built and led high-performing analyst teams, designed onboarding and training programs, and served as a mentor across business resource groups and professional development initiatives. I’m passionate about building future-ready teams that can adapt to the evolving demands of fintech and client expectations. I bring a unique blend of client-first execution, technical fluency, and strategic thinking — bridging the needs of today’s clients with the infrastructure of tomorrow. Areas of Expertise: • Strategic Client Management & Partnerships • Embedded Finance & API Banking • Real-Time Payments (RTP & FedNow) • Cross-Border Payments & Treasury Services • Private Equity & Alternatives Coverage • Product Strategy & Go-to-Market • Team Leadership, Mentorship & Talent Development • Regulatory Navigation & Risk Alignment I’m exploring opportunities where I can lead client strategy, scale fintech infrastructure, and help shape the future of financial services — both through innovative solutions and by investing in the people behind them.
