What does a Product Manager mean to us?

From Engineers wanting to step out of the geek-zone to freshly minted MBAs wanting to build the next Uber, everyone wants to be a product manager these days. In a fast-paced early stage startup, defining this role is even trickier as it evolves daily. So, we'll tell you what this role means to us.

If you enjoy roller-coasters, white-water rafting on Class-4 rapids and an occasional walk over hot-coals, you will enjoy this job. Being in the cockpit of a consumer company that has deep enterprise integrations will never be dull. We expect you to be self-motivated, manage delicate partner relationships tactfully with a smile on your face and most importantly, never take no for an answer. We expect you to passionately argue your points and have data to backup your arguments; but rapidly change your mind and commit to action even if you disagree vehemently.

Who are we looking for?

- Be the primary contact for interacting with the product teams of our Banking partners

- Interface with Marketing, Tech, Partners, CXOs, UX, Ops, Customer Success, Credit - pretty much everyone in the company - to decide and evolve product plans

- Drive several key metrics of the company that are product driven (most metrics are)

- Deeply understand competitive offerings and incorporate best practices.

- Product & Data are two sides of the same coin for us. You cannot do this job without deep respect for Data. Thanks to an amazing data team, you'll have ready access to every aspect of our customer and business. We expect you to critically look at data, challenge assumptions and drive decisions based on numbers.

- Our award winning interface and a world-class UX team will be on your side, you need to closely work with them and the rest of the business to scale the product

- Manage the key parts of the roadmap from conception through design, build, release, analysis and iteration

- Given the speed we operate at, chaos is a feature not a bug. Managing chaos without ever losing the trust of our customers or partners is a key job element

- Get into the nitty gritty. We like thinkers but love doers. Define the features for each release at the level required - unearth blockers and knock them off

- Manage multiple partners on a day-to-day basis - will involve calls, face-to-face meetings in multiple cities

- Build consensus across stakeholders clearly articulating the product decisions and choices

- Own & Triage all customer & partner facing escalations that are product related

Our ideal candidate is a Product, Program, Project and Partner manager all at the same time. Yes, we have a high bar. But we are willing to work with you provided you have the basic skills and the right attitude.

Skills you must have -

- 4-8 years of experience in product management marketing at a tech b2c company, atleast 1 year at a startup

- Engineering degree with an MBA from a premier college

- Basic SQL skills (we told you we- re data driven, we expect you to self-analyze data)

- Passion and a strong sense of ownership, even about things that are not your directly responsibility

Really nice to have :

- Background in Payments or other areas of Indian Fintech

- Strong proficiency with financial and customer experience metrics and analysis

- Excellent communication skills- verbal, written, numerate

- Be presentable. You- ll be directly interacting with senior bankers and you need to earn their trust and respect
