What You'll Help Build

At Innovatrics, we build biometric technologies for Governmental Identity, elections, border control, Digital ID, and secure Identity Verification in 80+ countries. Our algorithms have reached over a billion people.

Innovatrics is now transforming from a biometric vendor into a sovereign digital identity and trust platform - and Digital Identity is the fastest-evolving and most strategically critical piece of the Governmental ID Cluster. Your mandate is to develop the solution to position Innovatrics as the national digital identity trust partner: the neutral, modular technology layer that governments and their integrators deploy to issue foundational digital credentials, deliver them to any wallet ecosystem, and enable cross-sector attribute exchange across finance, health, education, transport, and social protection.

This is a platform-defining role at a company that is building the infrastructure governments and ecosystems will depend on for the next decade. Your ideas will ship fast and reach sovereign deployments across 60+ countries.

Working Hours & Location

We are based in Bratislava, Slovakia.

• Preferred: Relocation to Bratislava (with support).
• Flexible: Remote from EU with regular on-site visits for onboarding, team alignment, and strategic sessions.
• Travel: Regular visits to customers, government partners, standards bodies, and industry conferences.

Requirements

About You

You are a Senior Solution Owner or Product Manager with deep expertise at the intersection of governmental identity, digital credentials, and trust ecosystems. You are not just a product manager — you are a domain expert who understands the regulatory landscape (eIDAS2, EUDI Wallet ARF, GDPR, DPI principles), the technical architecture (OpenID4VCI/4VP, SD-JWT, mDoc, PKI, QTSP), and the political economy of sovereign identity.

You thrive in environments where you must simultaneously:

• Speak the language of governments, ministries, and civil registries.
• Engage credibly with system integrators, national printing houses, and private digital ID providers.
• Translate complex regulatory and standards requirements into actionable product roadmaps.
• Support commercial outcomes when it comes to partner/market adoption - not just feature delivery.

You are autonomous, business-driven, and result-oriented, comfortable with ambiguity, and energized by building something genuinely new on a global scale.

Qualifications

• Proven experience as a Solution Owner, Product Manager, or Solution Architect in Digital Identity, eID, or Government Identity - with hands-on knowledge of at least one of: EUDI/eIDAS2, MOSIP, W3C Verifiable Credentials, OpenID4VCI/4VP, mDoc/ISO 18013, or DPI programs (World Bank ID4D, AU Digital ID, IDB).
• Good understanding of the Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) and Digital Public Ecosystem (DPE) paradigm - the distinction between foundational identity, data exchange layers, and payment enablement.
• Familiarity with wallet ecosystems and credential standards - EUDI Wallet ARF compliance, OpenID4VCI/4VP protocols, SD-JWT-VC, ISO mDoc, QTSP integration, device binding, and selective disclosure.
• Business-oriented mindset: support pricing and packaging definition with the cluster Manager, and support go-to-market execution across diverse regions and partner types.
• Demonstrated ability to shape multi-year roadmaps with clear milestones, prioritization trade-offs, and measurable outcomes - from DPI infrastructure to DPE ecosystem activation.
• Good understanding of the ecosystem: governments, engineering teams, revenue organization, system integrators, standards bodies, and regulatory bodies.
• Comfortable working in hybrid/remote setups with excellent written and verbal communication.

Nice to have:

• Experience with ABIS (Automated Biometric Identification Systems) and foundational identity infrastructure.
• Hands-on “Builder” mindset - thinking from idea to delivery, ability to work with AI
• Knowledge of national trust list management, PKI governance, or QTSP ecosystems.
• Prior experience with MOSIP, OSIA, or similar open-source/standards-based identity platforms.
• Background in World Bank, IDB, AU, UNDP, or similar development finance institution identity programs.
