This is a hybrid role for a professional looking to make their next career leap into Product Management while maintaining an iron grip on technical delivery.
70% Project Management / Delivery: Keeping Jira pristine, driving development, unblocking the team, and ensuring absolute predictability regarding timelines and risks.
30% Product Management: Understanding the product ecosystem, mapping feature dependencies, defining the roadmap, asking stakeholders the right questions, and proposing strategic solutions.
Maintain the Jira backlog as the single source of truth (clean descriptions, clear priorities, active dependencies).
Plan capacity and forecast timelines using Jira Plans (Advanced Roadmaps).
Proactively identify and mitigate delivery risks and delays early in the cycle.
Unblock developers daily through technical clarification, resource reallocation, or escalation.
Run structured, high-focus standups and maintain clear documentation in Confluence (requirements, architectural decisions, task links).
Own the product structure, understanding how features interconnect across multiple internal systems.
Formulate and justify the product roadmap (what we build, in what order, and why).

Proven Delivery Record: Solid practical experience in technical project management. Certifications without real-world practice will not be considered.
Advanced Jira Proficiency: Mastery of Tasks, Epics, Links, Workflows, and Jira Plans for top-down prioritization (blocks / relates/depends).
Deep Delivery Control: Ability to estimate dev effort roughly, stay "inside the task context," and eliminate root causes of blockers rather than just logging them.
Logical Clarity: Ability to explain a task's logic and workflow to anyone without relying on developers. If you don't understand the task, it doesn't go into production.
High Autonomy: A self-starter mindset with strong critical thinking, ready to work long/flexible hours initially to hit aggressive goals. We measure success by output and results, not hours tracked.
Nice to Have: Experience in Fintech, PSP, or High-Risk payment domains.
Nice to Have: Experience working with distributed international teams.
Nice to Have: Basic understanding of financial metrics and unit economics.
Nice to Have: Hands-on experience with AI products or mature technical ecosystems.
