Bjak • Ireland, MS

3d • Remote

About The Position

KIRA is building an AI Neobank Superapp for Southeast Asia, encompassing payments, remittance, insurance, wealth, and trading. These products handle real money, making reliability, regulatory compliance, and third-party financial integrations paramount. The Technical Product Manager will be responsible for an entire product vertical, from initial strategy and defining outcomes to technical design, delivery, and successful launch. While AI-native, AI is viewed as a tool to improve outcomes, not the end goal. The role requires a deep understanding of when to leverage AI, when to rely on deterministic systems, and how to build products that are reliable, auditable, and trustworthy.

Requirements

• 5+ years of product management experience, including ownership of complex technical products from strategy through production.
• Strong technical foundation across system architecture, APIs, databases, workflows, failure modes and distributed systems.
• Experience working closely with engineers and ability to review, challenge and contribute to technical designs.
• Experience in payments, banking, remittance, insurance, trading or another regulated, high-consequence product domain.
• Strong product judgment and ability to make difficult trade-offs under technical, regulatory and operational constraints.
• Experience building with LLMs or AI products, including evaluation, reliability and understanding when AI should not be used.
• Strong English communication is required.

Nice To Haves

• Engineering or highly technical product background.
• Experience building zero-to-one fintech or consumer products.
• Experience defining evaluation frameworks for ML or LLM-powered products.

Responsibilities

• Owning a product vertical end-to-end, including strategy, metrics, roadmap, priorities and delivery.
• Shaping technical design with engineering across APIs, data flows, ledgering, reconciliation, failure handling, security and scalability.
• Driving trade-offs across correctness, speed, cost, reliability, regulatory requirements and user experience.
• Building regulatory requirements into the product across KYC, transaction monitoring, limits, privacy and licensing.
• Applying AI where it improves outcomes, with clear evaluation, safeguards, human oversight and failure handling.
• Shipping products around external dependencies, including regulatory approvals, financial rails and third-party partners.
• Aligning Engineering, Design, Compliance, Operations, Treasury and Finance around clear product decisions and launch requirements.
