Product Manager- New & Strategic Initiatives
About this role
This is a remote position.
Kyckr is a fast-scaling SaaS and data company transforming how financial crime teams verify businesses. We give regulated institutions, including banks, fintechs, law firms and payment providers, access to legally authoritative company data from 300+ corporate registries across 120 countries. Our customers use Kyckr to power their Know Your Business (KYB) and AML workflows, helping them onboard customers, assess risk and maintain ongoing compliance with confidence.
We've been a trusted name in the market for 20 years, but we operate like a scale-up. Our product team is small, decisions are made quickly, and we're always improving what we build.
We're looking for a Product Manager to own our new and strategic initiatives: the products and features that open up new revenue streams, new markets and new ways for customers to use Kyckr.
You will take ideas from first signal to shipped and adopted, working directly with engineering, commercial and customers. You will own your own backlog and roadmap, and you will be expected to get your hands dirty: prototyping with AI tools, writing specs that engineers can build from, testing with customers and seeing features through to launch and beyond.
This is a role for someone who likes hard problems, moves fast, and is comfortable with the ambiguity that comes with building things that don't exist yet.
What theKyckrProduct Manager role involves:
New & Strategic Initiatives
Own the discovery, definition and delivery of new products and strategic features end to end
Turn customer, market and commercial signals into clear problem statements, PRDs and scoped releases
Run rapid validation: prototypes, customer conversations and early-access launches before committing engineering effort
Take features from first release through adoption, iterating on real usage data and customer feedback
Help shape howKyckr'sdata and products are built for an AI-first world — where our customers are increasingly agents, not just people.
Backlog & Roadmap
Own and prioritise your own backlog and roadmap, and be able to justify every item on it
Manage trade-offs across commercial asks, customer feedback, technical debt and strategic bets
Keep stakeholders informed with short, honest updates on what is shipping, what is slipping and why
Working with Engineering
Work dayto day with engineers across front-end, back-end and API changes, from refinement through to release
Write specs and acceptance criteria that engineers can build from without a second meeting
Understand our APIs, data model and registry integrations well enough to make sound scoping decisions
Be present in sprint planning, refinement and reviews; unblock the team quickly
AI-Native Ways of Working
Use AI tools daily for rapid prototyping, research, problem exploration and drafting
Build clickable or working prototypes to test ideas before engineering picks them up
Help the wider team adopt AI-assisted product practices and improve how we work
Customers & Market
Talk to customers and prospects regularly; bring their problems back as evidence, not anecdotes
Work with Sales, Account Management and Marketing on positioning, pricing inputs and go-to-market for new launches
Track competitors and adjacent markets (KYB, AML, screening, identity) and feed what you learn into strategy
Requirements
We are looking for an experienced product manager who has shipped new features repeatedly, not just managed existing ones. You should be comfortable owning the whole loop from problem to launch in a small, fast-moving team.
7+ years of product management experience in B2B software, with a track record of shipping new features and products from zero to live
Experience in KYB, KYC, AML, screening, compliance or an adjacent regulated data field withinRegtechor Fintech
Experience shipping both front-end and back-end changes, including API-first products, and working closely with engineers on technical trade-offs
Has owned and managed their own backlog and roadmap, including saying no
AI-native: uses AI tools as a core part of how they research, prototype, explore and solve problems
Enjoys complex, ambiguous problems and can break them into something a team can build
