We are hiring a Platform Product Manager – Banking Platform to own and scale core banking and money-movement platform capabilities that power multiple financial products. This role focuses on bank account lifecycles, payment rails, partner integrations, and regulatory-ready infrastructure, enabling product teams to build reliably and at scale.

This is a senior product leadership role combining deep platform ownership, people management, executive-level communication, and structured problem-solving. You will operate as a trusted partner to Engineering leadership and CXOs, translating complex technical and regulatory challenges into clear decisions and execution plans.

What will you do?

Product Ownership & Strategy

  • Own the vision, strategy, and roadmap for one or more Banking Services platform domains (e.g., account onboarding, verification, bank transfers, settlements).
  • Define clear product goals, success metrics, and trade-offs across reliability, compliance, and feature delivery.
  • Manage the full product lifecycle—from discovery and requirements to launch, adoption, and optimization.

Banking Infrastructure & Money Movement

  • Drive platform capabilities supporting bank account lifecycles and money movement (e.g., ACH equivalents, local bank transfers, instant payments, reconciliation workflows).
  • Lead integrations with banking partners, payment processors, and financial infrastructure providers.
  • Ensure strong handling of edge cases such as failures, retries, reversals, exceptions, and settlements.

Compliance, Risk & Resilience

  • Translate regulatory, scheme, and partner constraints into clear platform requirements (e.g., auditability, controls, data retention, reporting).
  • Partner with Risk, Compliance, Legal, and Operations to ensure controls are embedded into platform design.
  • Drive platform resilience designing for partner outages, degraded modes, and recovery scenarios.

Execution & Delivery

  • Write high-quality PRDs and platform requirements that engineers can execute against with clarity.
  • Prioritize across run-the-business work, platform improvements, and new enablement initiatives.
  • Lead cross-functional execution across multiple engineering teams.

Stakeholder & Internal Customer Experience

  • Act as the product owner for internal consumers of the platform (Product, Engineering, Ops).
  • Improve developer and internal product team experience through clear APIs, documentation, and self-serve capabilities.
  • Communicate progress, risks, and decisions clearly to senior leadership.

 

Experience & Background:

  • 5 – 12 years of Product Management experience, with strong exposure to backend, platform, or infrastructure products.
  • Prior people management experience, including mentoring or managing Product Managers
  • Exposure to high-scale, high-availability systems with strict SLAs.
  • Strong understanding of APIs, distributed systems, data platforms, and cloud architectures.
  • Strong systems thinking and technical fluency, comfortable working deeply with engineers on architecture and trade-offs.

Mindset & Operating DNA:

  • Experience defining and using KPIs/OKRs to drive prioritization and outcomes.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Proven ability to manage complex dependencies and cross-functional stakeholders.

Non-Fit Profiles:

  • Domain experts without Platform Ownership experience.
  • PMs from Low-Scale or Low-Reliability Environments.
  • Product Managers without deep technical depth.
  • Pure UI/ UX-First Product Managers.
  • Program Manager or Project Managers.

Preferred Skills:

  • Experience building internal platforms or developer-facing products.
  • Exposure to global-scale, high-availability systems.
  • Experience in fintech, banking, payments, or other regulated systems.
