Job Description

Warum diese Rolle?

Small and medium businesses are the backbone of the German economy. Yet most of them manage their finances by hand, across disconnected systems, with tools built for large enterprises. We want to change that.

As part of the cooperative banking group, we reach a customer base across Germany that few startups can match. We are among the first to bring AI-driven financial products to this segment at real scale.

What we are missing is the person who turns strategy into a shipped product. Our product manager sets the direction. Features then need someone who breaks them down, refines them with the team, and carries them to release. That is the gap you fill.

Deine Mission

You turn our product strategy into a prioritized roadmap, sharp user stories, and shipped features. You work daily with the product manager, lead engineer, engineers, and designer. You own the path from idea to release.

Deine Aufgaben

From strategy to deliverables

• Translate business goals into a prioritized roadmap, epics, and actionable user stories

• Write clear user stories with well-defined acceptance criteria

• Prioritize the backlog and make trade-off decisions on scope versus timelines

• Bring solution proposals backed by industry research

Sprint execution

• Prepare and run sprint planning and deep refinement sessions

• Manage the Jira board and keep delivery visible for everyone

• Solve daily questions directly with the lead engineer, engineers, and designer

Quality

• Define test cases and validate features before release

• Run manual QA at first, then automate it step by step

Data and automation

• Pull your own data with SQL and build the dashboards you need

• Define and track product metrics: KPIs, funnels, retention

• Automate repetitive processes with AI and no-code tools where it creates value

Was dich erwartet

• A small team where each person takes full ownership and delivers autonomously

• Startup pace with the backing and reach of a major banking group

• Deliberate, growing use of AI, judged only by the value it creates for customers and for us

• New technologies arrive fast, and we expect everyone to pick them up quickly

• Structures are still forming, and you help build them

Dein Profil

Must-haves:

• 2+ years as a Product Owner or in a similar product role in fintech

• Independent data work: SQL for your own queries, dashboards you build and maintain, product metrics you define and track

• German language skills (min C1)

Nice-to-haves:

• Understanding of how AI products are built

• Experience with user research, A/B testing, and experimentation

• Understanding of APIs and how systems integrate

• Experience with automation and no-code tools such as Zapier or n8n

Deine Entwicklung

After 30 days:

• You have internalized our strategy, product structure, and product history, and know where we want to take the product next

• You know the product end to end, you know the Jira and tooling setup, and you have shadowed a full sprint cycle

• You have working relationships with the product manager, lead engineer, designer, and engineers

After 90 days:

• You take larger strategy items, split them into deliverables, refine them, and plan sprints without support

• You write clear user stories with well-defined acceptance criteria, independently

• You own the sprint and the backlog and make the scope-versus-timeline calls

• You run manual QA and define test cases before every release

After 180 days:

• You own one or more product areas end to end, from strategy translation through delivery and release

• You track product metrics through dashboards you built, on data you pulled yourself

• You proactively bring solutions backed by industry research and user insight

• You have started automating repetitive work in QA, reporting, and workflows with AI and no-code tools

If you want to own product delivery rather than administer a backlog, we should talk.
