More about this Ozow fantastic position  

As Product Operations Manager, your job is to help Ozow run Product with more clarity, better visibility, and stronger launch discipline. 

You will work with the Head of Product and Product leaders to improve how Product plans, reviews, communicates, and launches across the company. You will help establish clearer portfolio visibility, better dependency tracking, more consistent product artifacts, and a more reliable operating cadence. 

You will not own product strategy or make roadmap decisions on behalf of Product Managers. Your role is to create the scaffolding that helps the right decisions happen with more clarity, consistency, and confidence. That distinction is central to the Product Ops model you have already defined.     

Your role and responsibilities 

Leadership & Operating Enablement  

• Act as a high‑agency operating partner to the Head of Product, helping establish and maintain a strong product operating rhythm

• Maintain a clear and trusted view of portfolio status, priorities, dependencies, risks, and key trade‑offs 
• Improve the quality, structure, and decision‑usefulness of product reviews and operating forums 

Execution & Launch Readiness  

• Coordinate launch readiness across Product, Engineering, Commercial, Risk, Compliance, and Operations 
• Ensure launches are well‑prepared, documented, and aligned with risk, regulatory, and operational requirements 
• Improve dependency tracking, escalation pathways, and cross‑team communication 

Systems & Standard Governance  

• Improve consistency and quality of product artifacts including PRDs, strategy docs, review packs, and launch briefs 
• Define, maintain, and evolve product workflows across tools such as Jira, Linear, Notion, Confluence, or equivalent 
• Maintain KPI definitions, reporting views, and decision logs used by Product and leadership 
• Improve meeting hygiene, documentation standards, and operating discipline across the product organisation 

Tool Utilisation & Change Management  

• Design and implement lightweight systems, templates, and processes that improve clarity without adding bureaucracy 
• Identify recurring points of friction in how Product operates and solve them through better tooling, workflows, or cadence 
• Support change adoption by aligning teams around new operating standards and practices 

In this role, success means: 

• Product has a clearer and more trusted operating rhythm 
• Portfolio visibility is stronger across teams and domains 
• Product reviews are more structured and decision-useful 
• Cross-team dependencies and risks are easier to see and manage 
• Launch coordination is more disciplined and less ad hoc 
• Product Managers spend less time stitching together status and more time on product work 
• The wider business experiences Product as clearer, better aligned, and easier to work with 

You are an ideal candidate if you have 

• Experience in Product Operations, Product Management, Business Operations, Program Management, or a similar operating role 
• Exposure to fintech, payments, SaaS, platforms, marketplaces, or other complex product environments 
• Experience supporting planning cycles, launch readiness, or portfolio visibility across multiple teams 
• Experience working in regulated, operationally sensitive, or high‑reliability environments 
• Appreciation for risk, compliance, readiness, and delivery discipline in payments or financial services 
• Familiarity with product and workflow tools such as Jira, Linear, Notion, Confluence, Airtable, or similar

About the role: 

As a Platform Security Engineer, you are a developing security professional building expertise in securing cloud-native infrastructure, container platforms, CI/CD pipelines, and product services within the Platform Engineering organization. You take ownership of moderately complex security tasks with increasing autonomy while receiving guidance on architectural decisions and strategic direction. Your focus is the security posture of our platform and product infrastructure — the container orchestration layer, service mesh, observability stack, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud infrastructure that engineering teams build and deploy on.  

You implement and maintain security controls, build standardized security processes for engineering teams (vulnerability management, production security checks, secure build pipelines), support penetration testing and SOC operations for the product environment, contribute to compliance-related activities from the product security perspective, and help embed security practices into the developer experience through tooling and documentation.  

You are building depth and maturity in infrastructure security, application security, and shift-left practices needed to progress toward a senior platform security role. 

Your contribution will be: 

• You implement and maintain security controls across the platform, including container orchestration security policies, network segmentation, role-based access controls, and admission control mechanisms. 
• You manage container image scanning and enforce image policies in CI/CD pipelines and cluster admission, ensuring only vetted and signed images reach production environments. 
• You support infrastructure-as-code security scanning using policy-as-code tooling, flagging and remediating misconfigurations in infrastructure definitions before they reach production. 
• You maintain and improve secrets management workflows, ensuring rotation policies are enforced, access is audited, and no secrets are hardcoded or exposed in source code or configuration. 
• You support cloud security posture management across cloud environments, monitoring for drift, misconfiguration, and compliance deviations against established baselines. 
• You support service mesh security configuration including mutual TLS enforcement, authorization policies, and traffic policies that enforce zero-trust communication between platform services. 
• You contribute to tenant isolation and access control configuration for shared platform services, ensuring appropriate segmentation between teams and environments. 
• You conduct vulnerability assessments of platform and product infrastructure components, coordinating remediation with SRE, Platform Engineering, and product service teams. 
• You maintain a vulnerability tracking system and produce regular reporting on security posture, remediation velocity, and risk trends for engineering leadership. 
• You implement and maintain security gates in CI/CD pipelines including dependency scanning, static application security testing (SAST), software composition analysis (SCA), and container image scanning. 
• You participate in security incident response for platform and product-related events, supporting investigation, containment, evidence preservation, and documentation under guidance from the Senior Platform Security Engineer. 
• You support compliance-related activities from the product security perspective, providing evidence, documentation, and technical validation for audits and assessments (SOC 2, ISO 27001, CIS Benchmarks) without owning the compliance program itself. 
• Vulnerability report generation, security posture dashboards, and remediation workflow tooling. 
• You contribute to security reviews for infrastructure and product changes, providing feedback on pull requests and architecture proposals from a security perspective. 
• You explain security concepts and requirements to engineering teams, empowering them to build securely and understand the rationale behind security controls. 

To be successful, we think you need: 

Minimum Requirements: 

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Information Technology, Engineering, or related field; or equivalent combination of education and experience.
• 2+ years of professional experience in security engineering, infrastructure security, DevSecOps, application security, or related field. 
• Hands-on experience with at least one major cloud platform (Azure or AWS). 
• Working knowledge of container orchestration security concepts in Kubernetes: pod security, role-based access control, network policies, admission controllers. 
• Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools and understanding of how to secure IaC workflows. 
• Understanding of CI/CD pipeline security: dependency scanning, SAST/SCA integration, artifact integrity.
• Understanding of security frameworks and compliance standards (SOC 2, ISO 27001, CIS Benchmarks, OWASP). 
• Proficiency in scripting (Python, Bash, Go, or PowerShell) for security automation and tooling. 
• Proficiency with programing languages ( C#, Javascript/Typescript).
• Experience with or exposure to penetration testing concepts, vulnerability management workflows, and security incident response. 
• Strong communication skills with the ability to explain security findings and build standardized processes that engineering teams adopt. GitHub and/or Azure DevOps pipelines
