Job description

With your pragmatic and delivery-oriented professional attitude, you put your background and experience to good use as Product Manager.

You take ownership for the agreed solution ensuring that solutions delivered meet customer and business needs whilst adhering to legal, risk and compliance requirements of the bank.

You will not be HR responsible for the engineers in the squad, because that responsibility lies with the chapter leads that we have in the Netherlands and Poland.

Key responsibilities

Together with a squad of highly skilled engineers you are responsible for the future of the PaaS product(s) offering and for staying within our risk appetite:

• Providing clarity to the team with clear goals.

• Manage risk on the service/product you provide.

• Manage the delivery roadmap of the product, which will require much alignment with other stakeholders and customers across multiple locations.

• Take ownership of the product backlog by creating user stories and features with business value identified on each item.

• Keep the stakeholders informed on the Product Roadmap and the progress of the feature delivery and upcoming releases.

• Promote a clear product vision which has the customer as the focus, while maintaining a standardized solution.

• Together with other Product Managers of Area PaaS you will be in risk and portfolio wall meetings, where you will share your progress, challenges and lessons learned.

• Work together with our chapter leads to make sure the squad consists of the right people and is performing well.

How to succeed

You are an energetic and proactive Product Manager with a true passion for IT and a positive “Do it-Try it-Fix it” mentality. You have good understanding of Product management, Software Engineering and engineering tools such as CI/CD, SEM, monitoring tools etc. You are a natural team player who forms relationships based on social skills rather than hierarchical structure. You can easily switch context from engineers to auditors to management.
