    Technical Product Owner: Platform Enablement

    • We’re looking for a strong Technical Product Owner to lead a portfolio of platform products and services that enable all of IDM’s product teams to deliver faster, safer and at scale.
    • If you enjoy solving hard platform problems, shaping developer experience, and building shared capabilities that power multiple products, this role offers real ownership, influence, and technical depth.
    • This is not a feature PO role. You will own a portfolio of enablement products and services used internally by multiple squads across a growing fintech ecosystem.

    What you’ll do

    As a Platform Product Owner, you will:

    • Own a portfolio of internal platform products and shared services that enable multiple stream-aligned teams.
    • Shape the platform vision and roadmap in partnership with technical teams and technology leadership.
    • Define product boundaries, service contracts, and platform standards to reduce friction and duplication across teams.
    • Shape the long-term evolution of the enablement platform — balancing short-term delivery with scalability, reliability and operability.
    • Turn strategy into action by defining clear user stories, backlog items, and success metrics.
    • Collaborate closely with developers, systems architects, DevOps, and analysts.
    • Lead the delivery of impactful products that reduce cognitive load through standards, tooling, automation, and self-service.
    • Drive high-quality discovery, backlog refinement and delivery flow with stakeholders and development teams.
    • Align stakeholders around priorities, outcomes and delivery trade-offs in a complex environment.

    What you’ll bring

    • 5+ years of hands-on experience in product on complex platforms or digital products.
    • Demonstrated ability to engage deeply with technical design: APIs, data models, system integration, cloud architecture, non-functional requirements and operational considerations.
    • Experience working directly with engineers on platform, data, integration, infrastructure or developer tooling products.
    • Able to translate architectural concepts into product strategy and delivery sequencing.
    • Strong analytical thinking and comfort with data, systems and process complexity.
    • The ability to make decisions using data.
    • Excellent communication and facilitation skills — you’re comfortable leading discussions and building alignment.
    • Solid working knowledge of Agile delivery, backlog management and continuous improvement practices.
    • High ownership mindset with strong execution discipline.
    • A Bachelor’s degree in engineering, information systems, mathematics, science, or a related field.

    What you’ll get

    • True end-to-end ownership of a scaled internal platform portfolio.
    • Clear growth pathways into senior product or people leadership roles.
    • A hybrid work model (onsite and remote).
    • Competitive packages, including medical and RA contributions.
    • A values-driven culture focused on purpose and growth.
    • Bursary program opportunities to further your education.
    • Merit-based promotions in a growing, future-focused company.
