AI Product Owner
About The Position
Interested in joining one of Canada’s top-performing asset managers? We’re hiring an AI Product Owner in our AI Solutions engineering team. You are the engagement lead for affiliate and FG stakeholders into the solutions team, owning intake, prioritization, and the translation of business demand into signed-off, build-ready work. You protect engineering capacity by driving scope discipline, defining clear success measures, and ensuring the team builds the right things, safely and responsibly, in a regulated financial services environment. We operate on a hybrid model with three days a week in-office to facilitate team collaboration.
Requirements
- Product Owner / Product Manager / Senior Business Analyst experience owning a delivery pipeline from discovery through release (not just requirements gathering)
- Proven ability to work directly with senior stakeholders (portfolio managers, investment leaders, executives), set expectations, drive decisions, and hold the line on scope
- Exceptional specification writing, produce clear, testable requirements and acceptance criteria that engineering can build from without repeated clarification
- Experience in financial services or another regulated environment, with an understanding of risk, controls, privacy, and stakeholder accountability
- Technical fluency, able to challenge assumptions, understand architectural implications, and partner effectively with AI technical leads (without needing to be an engineer)
- High autonomy and strong judgment, turn ambiguous requests into structured, prioritized work with clear outcomes and constraints
- Constructive assertiveness and strong written communication, protect scope and timelines while maintaining trusted relationships
Responsibilities
- Own affiliate and FG stakeholder relationships, be the primary point of contact for AI requests, status, and decision-making
- Run the intake and prioritization operating rhythm with the Technical Lead. Triage requests, maintain the pipeline, and make trade-offs explicit (now / next / later)
- Lead discovery and use-case shaping, facilitate sessions to define the problem, map workflows, identify constraints, and set measurable success criteria
- Own the specification “contract”, ensure every use case entering build has a complete, approved spec (inputs, outputs, acceptance criteria, risks/assumptions, and data access requirements)
- Own the feedback-to-scope loop through UAT, translate stakeholder feedback into precise spec changes, control scope creep, and drive timely sign-off
- Maintain portfolio visibility, track progress, dependencies, blockers, satisfaction, and pipeline health; provide clear reporting to stakeholders and AI leadership
- Directly manage a future FG Business Analyst, set priorities, review specs, and ensure consistent quality and stakeholder experience across engagements
Benefits
- annual performance bonus
