About The Position

As a Senior Product Manager, you will own the strategy, roadmap, and execution for key products within our fintech portfolio. You’ll drive the full product lifecycle — from discovery and market research through backlog grooming, story refinement, and delivery — turning user feedback and competitive insights into a compelling product vision. Partnering closely with engineering, data, operations, and compliance, you will deliver customer-centric, compliant, and commercially successful products. This role is ideal for a product leader equally comfortable setting long-term strategy, digging into customer insights, facilitating sprint ceremonies, and translating complex concepts into intuitive digital experiences. You will champion AI adoption across the product development process, identifying opportunities to leverage intelligent tooling and automation to drive efficiency and accelerate innovation.

Bachelor's degree in Business, Computer Science, Finance, Marketing, or a related field.
5+ years of product management experience, including 2+ years leading or managing product teams.
Demonstrated experience with agile product development: facilitating backlog grooming, story refinement, sprint planning, and retrospectives in close collaboration with engineering and design teams.
Demonstrated success owning a product or large product area from concept through launch and ongoing optimization.
Strong command of product and business metrics (activation, retention, conversion, LTV, churn) and experience using data to drive prioritization decisions and roadmap tradeoffs.
Solid grasp of core PM practices: customer discovery, roadmap development, requirements definition, backlog management, and product lifecycle management.
Ability to translate complex financial and technical concepts into simple, customer-friendly experiences.
Demonstrated ability to synthesize user feedback, competitive research, and market data into actionable product strategy and a prioritized roadmap that drives measurable outcomes.
