About Innovative Systems
Innovative Systems builds enterprise data quality, address validation, and AML compliance software for Fortune 1000 firms worldwide. Founded in 1968, we are known for fast, accurate, and scalable solutions delivered through our Enlighten, PostLocate, and FinScan brands. We have regional offices in London, Mexico City, Dubai, and São Paulo, and we have been recognized as a Top Workplace.
The Role
We are hiring an experienced Product Manager to own our data quality portfolio: the Enlighten Data Quality Suite, PostLocate global address validation and geocoding and FinScan™ data-driven compliance products. These products sit underneath some of the largest customer data environments in banking, insurance, retail, and government, and they also power the matching engine behind FinScan. You will also help grow the FinScan portfolio with new DQ-powered compliance products: Validate, Verify, UBO, and KYB.
This is a hands-on role for someone who has shipped data products before and writes requirements engineers actually want to build from. You will turn customer problems into crisp specs, make the call on tradeoffs, and see features through to adoption. If you know the difference between a parse rule and a match rule, have opinions on survivorship, and have lived through a CASS cycle, we want to talk.

What You Will Own
- Enlighten Data Quality Suite: profiling, cleansing and standardization, match and link (entity resolution), enrichment, and ongoing data monitoring.
- PostLocate: global address validation, parsing, standardization, and geocoding, including CASS certification and USPS data (DPV, LACSLink, SuiteLink) for the US.

- Translate customer data problems (duplicate records, bad addresses, broken golden records, failed migrations) into well-scoped product work.
- Interview customers, data stewards, and implementation teams; map their workflows, requirements and validate problems before committing engineering time.
- Partner closely with engineering and QA on design, sprint planning, backlog grooming, and release readiness.

- Drive modernization of the suite: cloud and API delivery, real-time services, and AI-assisted matching and cleansing.
- Define and track product KPIs such as match accuracy, false match and missed match rates, address validation rates, throughput, latency, and customer adoption.
- Work with sales, marketing, and services on positioning, pricing input, launch readiness, demos, and enablement.
