Product Manager at Kurtosys Systems

The Role:

• Product Managers at Kurtosys contribute across multiple product domains - spanning foundational platform capabilities and client-facing reporting and digital solutions.
• We operate through outcome-led initiatives aligned to longer-term product themes. Within those initiatives, PMs take meaningful end-to-end ownership, shaping the problem, driving delivery, and ensuring measurable impact.
• Roadmaps are shaped collaboratively, but accountability is clear. You will be trusted to prioritise effectively, make trade-offs thoughtfully, and ensure the work you lead delivers real value.
• This is a role for someone who wants real ownership in a complex, regulated environment - and who is motivated to grow into a strong, well-rounded Product Manager in world that is evolving daily as AI scales.

Role Responsibilities:

• As a Product Manager at Kurtosys, you will operate at the intersection of client need, platform capability, and commercial impact.

You will:

Lead outcome-driven initiatives

• Frame complex problems clearly and define outcome-focused initiatives aligned to product themes.
• Translate strategic intent into coherent, well-scoped execution plans.
• Define meaningful success measures and ensure impact can be measured post-release.
• Make pragmatic trade-offs to deliver value early while protecting long-term platform integrity.

Drive high-quality delivery

• Own and prioritise backlogs within your initiatives with clarity and discipline.
• Collaborate closely with Engineering and Design from discovery through release – not through handover.
• Maintain high standards of scope definition, acceptance criteria, and delivery quality.
• Balance speed with correctness in a regulated, data-intensive context.

Shape direction, not just execute

• Contribute actively to roadmap discussions and product decisions.
• Bring structured thinking to ambiguous problems.
• Challenge assumptions constructively and balance requests with scalable product thinking.

Ensure adoption and realised value

• Partner cross-functionally to ensure launches are enabled and coherent.
• Monitor usage, adoption, and feedback signals.
• Iterate intentionally to maximise long-term value and scalability.

What Will Make You Successful Here:

• This role suits Product Managers who are thoughtful, structured, and comfortable taking ownership in a complex environment.

You’ll thrive at Kurtosys if you:

• Think in systems, not features - looking for scalable patterns rather than one-off solutions.
• Care about outcomes over activity - understanding that impact matters more than shipping volume.
• Are comfortable with shared ownership and influencing across domains.
• Bring intellectual honesty and are willing to change your perspective when data or insight demands it.
• Operate well in complexity - regulated financial environments sharpen your thinking rather than intimidate you.
• Value collaboration and see product as a team sport.
• Are curious about how product management is evolving, including the role of AI in accelerating discovery and delivery.

You don’t need to have all the answers - but you should be motivated to ask great questions.

You likely have:

• 3-5 years’ experience in Product Management or Product Ownership
• Background or education in information systems, computer science, or related fields
• Experience in fintech or financial services environments (advantageous)

• Strong problem-solving and critical thinking skills, with the ability to work across complex systems
• Comfort working closely as part of a cross-functional team and making trade-off decisions
• Clear, structured communication skills
• Experience with agile delivery practices and tools such as Jira and Confluence
