About the position:

We’re looking for a Product Manager with strong program ownership who can lead product discovery and delivery while also coordinating cross-functional efforts across different areas (marketing, legal, compliance, sales, operations…)

You will own outcomes, not just backlog. You’ll act as the connective tissue for one of our new initiatives: ensuring priorities are clear, dependencies are managed, and teams are aligned around shared goals.

This is a hands-on role combining product management, program coordination, and stakeholder management.

Key responsibilities

Product Management:

  • Define and execute the product strategy and roadmap in line with project goals and user needs

  • Lead discovery, problem definition, solution design, and prioritization in an agile environment

  • Translate business goals into epics, user stories, and clear execution plans

  • Use data and user insights to validate hypotheses, prioritize initiatives, and measure success

  • Ensure a strong customer-centric approach balancing user value and business impact

Program & cross-functional coordination

  • Coordinate initiatives across Product, Engineering, Design, Marketing, Legal, Compliance, Sales/AM, and Operations

  • Identify dependencies, risks, and blockers early and drive resolution

  • Ensure legal, compliance, and operational requirements are embedded into product delivery

  • Act as the single point of ownership for cross-team alignment and decision follow-up

Execution & delivery

  • Plan and run agile ceremonies; ensure iterative and predictable delivery

  • Track progress against OKRs and milestones with a focus on measurable outcomes

  • Balance speed with quality, scalability, and regulatory constraints

Stakeholder management

  • Communicate clearly on progress, trade-offs, risks, and decisions

  • Align stakeholders with competing priorities through clarity and strong judgment

  • Drive decisions using data, structured thinking, and product sense

Experience and qualifications:

  • 3-6 years in Product Management, Program Management, or hybrid roles

  • Experience leading complex, cross-functional digital initiatives

  • Proven exposure to legal, compliance, or regulated environments

  • Experience with platforms, marketplaces, SaaS, or developer-facing products is a plus

  • Driving team collaboration

  • Strong product thinking: problem framing, prioritization, and outcome orientation

  • Excellent organizational and coordination skills; comfortable with ambiguity

  • Clear, structured communication (written and verbal)

  • Able to operate between strategy and execution

  • Data-informed, pragmatic decision-maker

  • Ownership-driven, proactive, collaborative, and decisive

  • English proficiency
