Remote Product Manager (Banking & Fintech)

1. Product Strategy & Requirements
Requirements Gathering: Collaborate with stakeholders to translate high-level business goals into detailed, technical functional specifications.
Backlog Ownership: Groom and prioritize the product backlog. You are responsible for ensuring the development team always has clear, "ready-to-code" tickets.
Fintech Domain Logic: Apply your knowledge of financial services (payments, compliance, KYC, lending) to spot edge cases and logic gaps early in the discovery phase.
2. Execution & Delivery Management
Timeline & Roadmap Management: Create realistic delivery plans. You monitor velocity, manage scope creep, and ensure the team hits milestones.
Risk Management: Proactively identify blockers (technical or business) and resolve them before they impact the sprint.
Agile Rituals: Facilitate sprint planning, daily stand-ups, and retrospectives (or partner closely with a Scrum Master) to ensure high team performance.
3. Stakeholder Collaboration
Bridge the Gap: Act as the translator between technical engineering teams and non-technical business stakeholders.
Client Engagement: Lead weekly status meetings and demos. You must be able to communicate bad news (delays/risks) as effectively as good news, maintaining trust through transparency.
Conflict Resolution: Navigate conflicting priorities between different departments and negotiate a path forward.
