This person will own the operating rhythm, roadmap, requirements, dependencies, and execution plan for a major internal systems revamp. They will partner closely with Finance, Product, Engineering, Data, Operations, Legal, GTM, and executive leadership to define the system architecture, data model, core workflows, and launch plan for a scalable internal platform. The ideal candidate is product-minded, technically credible, and execution-obsessed. They should be comfortable defining data structures and finance requirements, translating business needs into technical specs, driving multiple workstreams in parallel, and escalating tradeoffs clearly when timelines, scope, or dependencies are at risk. What You'll Do * Own the end-to-end transformation roadmap for company-wide internal systems, including scope, milestones, owners, dependencies, risks, launch readiness, and executive reporting. * Define a unified operating data model across tasks, projects, products, contract terms, customers, experts, and revenue. * Partner with Product and Engineering to build a task-based system of record that supports revenue tracking, cost attribution, delivery pacing, quality measurement, and operational controls. * Translate Finance, Operations, and GTM requirements into clear product requirements, business requirements, process flows, data definitions, and technical acceptance criteria. * Drive implementation of native dashboards for project design, daily pacing, throughput, margin, billing status, payment status, quality, and SLA adherence. * Lead delivery of billing, payment ledger, revenue recognition support, fraud detection, auditability, reconciliation, and financial control workflows. * Create scalable staffing, lifecycle status, and expert performance systems with real-time visibility, exception handling, permissions, and operational controls. * Establish the program governance model: weekly execution reviews, dependency tracking, RAID logs, decision logs, escalation paths, launch readiness reviews, UAT, hypercare, and post-launch measurement. * Serve as the connective tissue across teams, making sure business requirements do not get lost in product/engineering translation and that technical constraints are understood by business stakeholders. ## Related Videos - [Inside Bitpanda's Tech Stack: Scaling a European Fintech Leader - Markus Dorner](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1979-inside-bitpanda-s-tech-stack-scaling-a-european-fintech-leader-markus-dorner) - [Fault Tolerance and Consistency at Scale: Harnessing the Power of Distributed SQL Databases](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1146-fault-tolerance-and-consistency-at-scale-harnessing-the-power-of-distributed-sql-databases) - [Data Science in Retail](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/586-data-science-in-retail) - [APIs and Architecture for scaling omnichannel payments](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/90-apis-and-architecture-for-scaling-omnichannel-payments) - [Fault Tolerance and Consistency at Scale: Harnessing the Power of Distributed SQL Databases](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1520-fault-tolerance-and-consistency-at-scale-harnessing-the-power-of-distributed-sql-databases) - [Data Science on Software Data](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/162-data-science-on-software-data) ## Related Articles - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies in Europe](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/162-highest-paying-tech-companies-in-europe) - [The Biggest German Tech Companies](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/424-the-biggest-german-tech-companies) - [How Much FAANG Companies Actually Pay Software Engineers in 2025](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/230-how-much-faang-companies-actually-pay-software-engineers-in-2025) - [Why Upskilling And Reskilling is Important For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/428-why-upskilling-and-reskilling-is-important-for-developers) - [Best Companies to Work For in Berlin: Top 14 Companies in 2023 ](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/188-best-companies-to-work-for-in-berlin-top-14-companies-in-2023)
