Product Lead Digital I - KYCIns (Data management )

Your role & work environment

At ING we have bold ambitions to improve the digital experience for our customers while empowering people’s financial health. At the same time, we want to make a positive contribution to the society and the world we live in.

Data is at the core of these ambitions. ING thrives to become intelligently empowered to:

• Provide the best customer experience based on data and personalization.
• Reduce operational costs and through-put-time through data-driven optimizations.
• Empower employees to make better decisions with trend analysis and business intelligence.

To deliver on these ambitious promises, we need to have a strong strategic and commercially focused organisation around our digital-products, where our teams working on those digital-products are enabled by clear prioritisation, accountability and capabilities. And right there, the Product Lead comes in.

To put it in short, the Product Lead is a position where all elements of a product come together, the what and the how, with an end-to-end responsibility. You work not only on delivery and on how we run a product, but also on creating a vision on how we create it, how we manage the business value and how we deliver a differentiating customer experience. Therefore, we need someone who can contribute to a continuous, emerging, all-round product vision that is covering all elements for the product life cycle, with the ultimate goal to increase customer impact.

You do that by steering squads who work on the product by providing them with a strategic direction, by coaching them on the job, defining the product roadmap and by managing stakeholders around the product. The Data Management Experts who work in the squad’s report to you, which means it is your job to empower them to thrive and perform at their best. You set direction, you help them to develop their craftsmanship and you have continuous conversations about their career development.

As a Product Lead you report hierarchically to a Product Area Lead, where multiple products come together.

Your product contains delivery of TM data to global FCRM via IWH, TAPT (transaction analysis pre-processing tool), Quantexa, Cesop, Outlier detection, and the Sandbox.
