As Senior Product Manager you will originate and build data-driven algorithmic products.

We are seeking a Product Expert who has experience in Discovery and Experimentation – to be part of our Wholesale Banking AI discovery squad. This is an entrepreneurial and global role in an innovative international team bringing AI concepts to live.

What we expect from you

• Lead product discovery: find (data) problems, prioritize idea backlog and design and execute experiments to decide what problems need solving
• Work with a squad of Data Scientists, UXers, and Engineers to discover the potential of a product idea, the user problem (user research) and validate and prototype
• Lead multi-disciplinary squads to build products and/or lead product management in a larger squad with complex organizational challenges

• Experience with experimentation and discovery
• University degree
• Written and spoken fluency in English

What could your day look like?

Any given day will be different, but one of them might look like this: Start off the day with the daily standup with your product squad. Afterwards you work with them planning and defining the upcoming experiments. The next meeting is with UX, who wants to run through his latest research results with you. This will be important input for you to prioritize the backlog for upcoming sprint.

You go for lunch with the hot AI Fintech that is using voice data to predict trading behavior, who you spotted coming out of a Startup Accelerator. Then, you run a workshop with a team that has been thinking about an AI-related idea and help them work it out into a concrete AI challenge. This could be a project for our upcoming experiment week.

Later in the day you make your way to a conference where you are speaking about our latest developments in AI-powered bond trading products. You stay for some drinks at the conference… or you call it a day and spend some quality private time to keep a healthy balance between focus, rest and other things.
