Job description
- Backlog & Strategic Alignment: Own and prioritize the Compliance backlog based on critical business objectives and Global OKRs. Partner with the Product Manager to translate company strategy into actionable technical milestones.
- Technical Integration Oversight: Act as the primary technical resource for integrations with Identity (KYC), Risk scoring, and AML tools. Manage technical dependencies with the platform and third-party providers.
- Advanced Requirement Engineering: Gather and verify functional/non-functional requirements. Build and maintain Epics and Stories with a heavy focus on Financial Edge Cases (e.g., sanction hits, failed KYC loops, or suspicious transaction patterns).
- Regulatory & Security Compliance: Ensure every feature satisfies international standards, including PSD2/3, DORA, and PCI-DSS. Act as a mediator to ensure the "User Golden Path" never bypasses mandatory security checks.
- Stakeholder & Vendor Liaison: Serve as the central technical link between the Engineering team, the CISO, and external vendors. Secure approvals for data privacy and security architecture decisions.
- Sprint Execution & Quality: Define sprint objectives and approve all product increments. Ensure every release-from backend API to frontend UI-meets our platform's rigorous security and audit logging standards.
- Incident & Change Management: Proactively manage change requests for security patches and regulatory updates. Define "Acceptance Criteria" that mandate strict audit-trail documentation and security validation.
- Operational Guidance: Provide subject matter expertise to internal teams. Oversee technical operational tasks, such as whitelisting processes and system permission architecture.
Requirements
Do you have experience in UML?, * Experience: 3+ years as a Technical PO, Business Analyst, or System Analyst in Fintech, BaaS, or RegTech.

- Technical Skill Set:
- API & Data: Proficient in documenting/testing RESTful APIs and webhooks; solid understanding of backend architecture and data flow.
- Modeling: Ability to create and interpret UML and BPMN diagrams for complex money and data movements.

- Analytical Decision Making: Ability to synthesize complex information from third-party APIs to make logical, rapid decisions during technical conflicts or security incidents.
- Leadership & Vision: Proven ability to lead a cross-functional squad (Node.js, QA, Data) through influence and technical authority rather than direct reporting lines.
- Agile Mastery: Deep experience in Scrum/Agile, specifically managing high-velocity delivery with significant third-party dependencies.
