About the role
We are hiring a Product Manager (Technical) to own the technical product direction and delivery alignment for our platform and enterprise implementations. This acts as the primary product interface to Engineering, ensuring that customer/program requirements are translated into clear, buildable product requirements and delivered predictably.
You will define what to build and how it should work from a product/solution design perspective.
Key responsibilities1) Product requirements & solution design (core)
- Translate business, client, and operational needs into clear product requirements (PRDs/user stories), including functional flows, edge cases, and acceptance criteria.
- Own solution design for technical topics: APIs/integrations, authentication/SSO patterns, catalogue structures, voucher lifecycle rules, reporting and reconciliation needs.
- Define what is standard product vs client-specific configuration vs custom work, and recommend the lowest-complexity approach.
2) Backlog ownership & prioritisation
- Maintain and prioritise the product backlog for technical capabilities that support programs and scalable platform growth.
- Balance feature delivery, technical debt reduction, operational stability, and compliance/security requirements.
- Partner with commercial and program teams to assess trade-offs and sequencing (scope vs timeline vs risk).
3) Engineering partnership & delivery alignment
- Serve as the day-to-day product counterpart to Engineering: clarify requirements, unblock decisions, manage scope boundaries, and ensure build quality.
- Participate in sprint planning/rituals with Engineering; ensure stories are ready (definition of ready) and outcomes are validated (definition of done).
- Support UAT planning and sign-off from a product perspective (what meets requirements and what does not).
4) Cross-functional readiness (Ops/Support/Client-facing)
- Ensure operational requirements are captured early (SOP impact, catalogue readiness, support playbooks, exception handling).
- Define handover and BAU requirements for new capabilities (monitoring needs, dashboards/metrics, runbooks, support macros/FAQs).
- Work closely with Operations/Support and client-facing teams to reduce escalations through better product design and documentation.
5) Pre-sales technical support (as needed)
- Support RFP/proposal stages by validating technical feasibility, integration approach, assumptions/dependencies, and solution scope.
- Contribute to solution narratives and implementation approach sections (technical perspective), ensuring commitments are product-aligned and scalable.
6) Documentation & product clarity
- Produce and maintain technical product documentation
- Create reusable patterns/templates to reduce future delivery effort (e.g., standard integration checklist, standard reporting pack requirements, standard test scenarios).
What success looks like
- Requirements are consistently build-ready: fewer engineering rework cycles and fewer late-stage surprises.
- Programs and product releases have fewer defects/escalations because edge cases and operational realities were designed in early.
- A growing set of standardised, reusable capabilities reduces client-by-client customisation.
- Engineering velocity improves due to clear prioritisation, crisp acceptance criteria, and faster decision-making.
Required qualifications
- 4–8+ years experience in Product Management, Technical Product Management, Solutions Engineering (with strong product ownership), or similar roles in a platform/SaaS environment.
- Strong ability to work with engineers on technical problem statements (APIs, integrations, data flows, environments), without needing to be a developer.
- Demonstrated experience writing clear requirements: user stories, acceptance criteria, flow diagrams, edge cases.
- Strong stakeholder management: can align business, ops, and engineering on trade-offs and decisions.
- Strong analytical thinking and comfort with operational/process detail.
