The product aggregates, processes, and analyzes financial data to provide actionable insights for professionals operating across multiple countries and regulatory environments.

  • Backlog Ownership & Agile Delivery
    • Own and manage the product backlog, ensuring items are clearly defined, prioritized, and ready for development.
    • Collaborate closely with agile development teams during sprint planning, execution, reviews, and retrospectives.
    • Make trade‑off decisions based on value, user impact, data quality, risk, and time‑to‑market.
  • Stakeholder & Customer Management
    • Act as the primary point of contact for internal and external stakeholders regarding product functionality and priorities.
    • Gather input from an international user base, balancing regional requirements with standardization of the core product.
    • Work with sales, support, and customer success teams to incorporate customer feedback and usage insights.
  • Data & Quality Focus
    • Ensure data accuracy, consistency, and reliability across all product components.
    • Define acceptance criteria with a strong focus on data validation, analytics correctness, and performance.
    • Collaborate with data engineers and analysts on data models, calculations, and reporting logic.
  • Compliance & Governance Awareness
    • Ensure product features align with relevant financial, data protection, and regulatory requirements (e.g. GDPR, auditability, data lineage).
    • Support audit readiness through clear documentation and traceability of product decisions and data logic

What do you bring to the table?

  • 3+ years of experience as a Product Owner, Product Manager, or similar role in a data‑driven or financial software environment.
  • Solid understanding of financial data concepts, analytics, or reporting platforms.
  • Hands‑on experience working in Agile/Scrum delivery teams.
  • Strong ability to translate complex business and data requirements into actionable user stories.
