We’re recruiting a Product Manager to drive our automated identity verification solution, delivering compliance, security, and performance.
Key Responsibilities
We are hiring a Product Manager to own a defined area of the product, from discovery to delivery: capture market and customer needs, contribute to strategy and roadmap, and drive delivery with engineering. You will advise sales and customer‑facing teams and work directly with customers on product setup and solution patterns. You will collaborate closely with Product & Technology Leadership and Sales colleagues across Germany, France and other markets, and be the go-to person for your area of the product.
- Business outcome ownership: define measurable goals and KPIs (adoption, quality, satisfaction) for your area and drive outcome‑oriented delivery.
- Roadmapping: contribute to an outcome‑focused roadmap that converts market, regulatory and customer insights into prioritized initiatives; align with leadership and sales.
- Delivery & specification: translate roadmap items into epics, user stories and testable acceptance criteria; lead backlog refinement, sprint planning and reviews; make trade‑offs on scope, quality and timelines; coordinate release readiness and enablement.
- Incident triage & quality: rapidly triage issues, gather context, coordinate fixes, run post‑incident reviews and capture preventive actions in the backlog; communicate status to customer‑facing teams and customers.
- Customer engagement: join customer meetings with Sales and Customer Success to validate value propositions via interviews, prototypes and pilots.
- GenAI‑enabled ways of working: use GenAI to accelerate discovery, specification, incident summaries and reporting—ensuring human oversight and compliance.
Turn back if …
- You´d rather work from a fully defined roadmap handed to you instead of translating long-term vision into something Engineering can execute against.
- You’d rather hand verification edge cases to support than dig into them yourself.
- You’re uncomfortable with the pace and ambiguity of a scale-up.
Preferred Experience
- 2+ years of product experience in a high-growth tech company. Banking/fintech/identity verification experience is a big plus.
- Strong track record of taking initiative, delivering outcomes, and working across teams to remove blockers.
- Good understanding of system interactions, data flows and APIs.
- Ability to communicate complex technical topics clearly to engineering teams, senior stakeholders, customers, and internal enablement audiences.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English. German or French is an advantage.
- Practical, responsible use of GenAI.
