Requirements:
• Relevant Experience: 7+ years of experience in Product Management, with a significant track record in Fintech, digital banking, or payment systems.

• Regulated Environment Experience: Clear grasp of the regulatory context, alongside experience navigating compliance frameworks and tight licensing constraints.
• Direct experience working under licensed jurisdictions regulated by authorities such as the DFSA, FCA, ADGM, or MAS will be a distinct advantage.
• Soft Skills and Traits: A high level of independence and a systematic approach to product management instead of reactive execution.
• Ability to find a balance and communicate fluently across engineering, compliance, and business functions.
• Strong focus on product metrics and business results, rather than the raw number of features shipped.
