About the role

As a Strategic Product Manager, you will own product strategy and commercialization for products within the IBS Core value stream. You will ground product direction in evidence-research, analytics, client input, and competitive intelligence-and translate it into strategy artifacts, a multi-release roadmap, and measurable outcomes. You will run an operating rhythm that enables leadership decisions and aligns teams across IBS, including a coordinated approach to AI and non-AI enhancements. You will partner closely with engineering, architecture, UX, sales, support, operations, and risk/compliance to deliver outcomes, guide investment decisions through business cases, and drive go-to-market readiness and adoption. You will join a team of experienced product managers working across core banking, sales and service, data and analytics, and open APIs to deliver new products and enhancements for a rapidly changing fintech landscape.

Responsibilities

Lead market definition, customer needs analysis, and competitive research to identify opportunities, risks, and differentiated positioning.

Leverage existing insights and assets (research, analytics, customer forums, field input, and support trends) to identify friction, modernization blockers, and opportunity themes.

Establish continuous learning practices (industry signals, competitive narratives, internal knowledge sharing) and turn findings into strategic recommendations.

Create and maintain strategy artifacts (journey maps, workflow inventories, use cases, pillars/themes) that inform planning and roadmap discussions.

Develop business cases to justify investments, including benefits, costs, dependencies, and risk assessment.

Lead go-to-market planning and execution in partnership with sales and marketing (launch readiness, enablement, and adoption).

Own prioritization and roadmap execution; translate strategy into well-defined initiatives, epics, and features with clear success metrics.

Partner with UX and technology to design user-centered experiences and ensure the backlog is actionable, groomed, and ready for delivery.

Recommend and evaluate potential third-party partnerships and ecosystem relationships that strengthen the product offering.

Act as an internal and external voice for the product, aligning stakeholders on the roadmap, narrative, and outcomes.

Define product OKRs and track performance (adoption, customer outcomes, revenue/margin, and profitability) to drive continuous improvement.

Drive a decision-making operating rhythm by delivering monthly strategic briefs, supporting quarterly leadership updates, and maintaining a repository of strategy and research artifacts.

Partner with related teams to align on one coordinated AI direction for IBS (priorities, ownership, and timelines) and ensure appropriate governance with risk/compliance and human oversight.

Collaborate with product owners, stakeholders, customers, and architects to set expectations, manage tradeoffs, and deliver cohesive releases.

What you bring:

7-10+ years of experience in product management, product strategy, or related roles delivering technology products in fintech, banking, or other regulated industries.

Experience owning product vision and multi-release roadmaps, including prioritization, sequencing, and success metrics.

Demonstrated ability to lead discovery (market/customer/competitive research) and translate insights into clear requirements and outcomes.

Experience partnering with engineering, UX, and architecture teams in an agile environment to deliver incrementally and manage tradeoffs.

Strong cross-functional collaboration skills with sales, marketing, support, operations, legal, and risk/compliance partners.

Business acumen, including experience building business cases and understanding product financial performance (revenue, margin, cost-to-serve).

Strong influence and leadership skills, with the ability to align teams to a shared vision and drive execution through ambiguity.

Comfort working in a regulated environment and partnering with risk/compliance to ensure solutions (including AI/automation) include appropriate controls, explainability, and governance.

Experience synthesizing qualitative and quantitative inputs into strategy artifacts and executive-ready decision materials.
