About the job
How You'll Make an Impact
Drive Product Strategy & Execution: Own the roadmap for your feature surface area. Conduct user discovery, analyze behavior metrics, and prioritize what to build next based on business impact.
Bridge Vision and Code: Eliminate the friction between product requirements and technical design. Translate highly complex financial and accounting standards (like ASC 842 and GASB 87) into elegant data models and intuitive software workflows.
Ship Production-Grade Code: Actively build, test, and deploy the features you define. Write clean backend logic, design schemas, and ensure your code is secure, scalable, and auditable.
Amplify Through AI: Leverage LLM-powered development tools, copilots, and automation as a core part of your daily workflow to accelerate execution.
Own the Metrics: Track feature adoption, gather user feedback, and iterate continuously to ensure your technical solutions solve real business problems.
The Expertise You'll Bring
- The Product Mindset: 5+ years of experience in a product-focused role (Product Manager, Product Owner, or Product Engineer) where you routinely owned feature definition, user research, and roadmapping.
- Strong Technical Backing: 3+ years of professional software engineering experience. Comfortable diving into a complex codebase, writing reliable code in Python (or similar backend languages), and working directly with relational databases (PostgreSQL / MS SQL Server).
- Architectural Literacy: Ability to design scalable database schemas and understand cloud infrastructure (AWS) implications for the product features you scope.
- Data-Driven & Empirical: Experience using product analytics tools (e.g., Mixpanel, Pendo, Heap) and SQL queries to validate hypotheses and measure feature success.
- High-Bandwidth Communication: Exceptional ability to articulate product vision to stakeholders, collaborate closely with UX designers, and write clear, concise documentation.
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related STEM field is required. Strong preference for candidates who have also completed coursework or certifications in business administration, finance, or product strategy.
Nice To Haves
- Prior experience in FinTech, accounting technology, or B2B SaaS platforms.
- Experience working in high-autonomy engineering cultures (e.g., continuous deployment, rapid prototyping).
