Here’s a summary of the role:
You love taking messy, complex problems and turning them into powerful, intuitive products — especially in SaaS, compliance, and AI‑driven workflows. In this role, you’ll shape the future of third‑party risk and due diligence by owning product strategy end‑to‑end: setting the vision, driving an AI‑powered roadmap, partnering closely with engineering and design, and turning real customer insights into scalable, high‑impact solutions. If you thrive on building data‑heavy platforms, influencing cross‑functional teams, and shipping products that truly move the needle, this is where your expertise in product leadership, agile development, and risk/compliance domains will shine.
Here’s a breakdown of what you’ll do (not all of it, just the important stuff):
- Drive product strategy, roadmap, and delivery for AI-enabled risk and compliance products
- Translate customer needs, market trends, and data into clear product direction and priorities
- Partner closely with engineering, UX, and go-to-market teams to ship high-quality products
- Drive product discovery, define requirements, and manage backlogs across multiple teams
- Track performance (usage, adoption, outcomes) and continuously improve the product
These are the essentials you’ll need to get an interview:
- 10+ years in product management within SaaS or technology-driven environments
- Proven experience owning product strategy and delivering complex, platform-based products
- Strong track record of translating customer and market insights into successful products
- Experience working closely with engineering and design in agile development environments
- Domain knowledge in risk, compliance, due diligence, or adjacent regulated industries
- Clear communicator with the ability to influence stakeholders at all levels
It would be great if you had these to, but we’ll support you if you don’t:
- Experience working on AI/ML-driven products or data-intensive platforms
- Exposure to enterprise B2B products with complex workflows and integrations
- Familiarity with global regulatory environments or third-party risk ecosystems
- Experience with platform integrations, APIs, or ecosystem-based products
