The company:

We are a global financial technology firm that solves complex data-driven challenges faced by some of the world’s most sophisticated financial institutions. We continually innovate our platform and capabilities to meet tomorrow’s challenges, anticipate the risks our clients encounter, and design advanced solutions to help them achieve transformational business outcomes.

Financial technology is a high-growth industry as change and innovation continue to disrupt the status quo and prompt major transformation. We are at a particularly interesting time in our own growth as we look to leverage our successfully established market position and expand operations in pursuit of strategic new business opportunities.

We value intellectual curiosity, proactive ownership, and collaboration with colleagues, and we empower you to meaningfully contribute from day one and accelerate your professional development.

We are seeking a Product Manager to support the execution and continued evolution of UBOR (our Investment & Portfolio Accounting product), one of the most business-critical components of our SaaS platform.
This role sits at the intersection of product delivery, client engagement, and commercial alignment. You will work closely with Engineering, Client & Partner Development, Sales, and Marketing to ensure the UBOR product roadmap is effectively executed and clearly communicated. You will also contribute to enhancing product capabilities through hands-on prototyping and practical application of AI-enabled tools.

What You'll Do:

• Support the execution of the UBOR product roadmap, ensuring alignment between strategic priorities, client needs, and delivery timelines.

• Translate product vision into detailed requirements and specifications, working with stakeholders to gather inputs and communicate direction.

• Balance customer requests with longer-term product objectives.

• Partner with Engineering, QA, and Subject Matter Experts to translate specifications into effective design and delivery.

• Collaborate with Sales and Marketing to ensure product capabilities are clearly positioned and communicated.

• Represent UBOR in client meetings as appropriate to present roadmap updates, collect feedback, and ensure alignment.

• Contribute to business case development for product enhancements and R&D investments.

• Rapidly prototype workflows, user experiences, reporting logic, or automation concepts using AI-assisted coding and modern development tools.

• Validate product ideas through lightweight prototypes or proofs-of-concept before committing full engineering resources.

What You'll Bring:

• 3–6 years of product management experience, preferably within SaaS platforms serving asset managers or related financial services sectors.

• Bachelor’s degree in accounting, finance, engineering, computer science, or a related field preferred.

• Experience building or supporting financial technology products.

• Foundational domain knowledge in hedge funds, private credit, private equity, institutional asset management, or related sectors.

• Hands-on experience with investment accounting (IBOR or ABOR preferred).

• Demonstrated experience across the product lifecycle, including requirements analysis, planning, delivery support, and post-release feedback.

• Hands-on experience using generative AI tools to build functional prototypes or proofs-of-concept.

• Comfort with lightweight scripting, SQL, APIs, or no-code/low-code tools to independently prototype workflows and validate ideas.

Why Join Us:

We offer:

• Flexible work arrangements (hybrid model) and a casual dress code;

• Opportunity to work on challenging projects in a dynamic, global environment;

• Continuous learning and development opportunities;

• Collaborative and innovative work culture;

• Competitive compensation and benefits package;
