At Ncontracts, you'll join a team of industry experts dedicated to strengthening the financial services sector through innovation and thought leadership. We're seeking creative, collaborative, and self-driven professionals across all areas of our business - from developing cutting-edge solutions to sales, marketing, customer support, and beyond.

ABOUT THE ROLE 

We're seeking a Senior Product Manager to own product strategy and execution for product(s) within our governance risk and compliance solutions serving 5,000+ financial institutions navigating an increasingly complex regulatory landscape. This role exists because risk and compliance teams need more than software - they need intelligent solutions that reduce burden while strengthening controls, and they need a product leader who deeply understands their world and can translate that into exceptional product experiences. 

As we evolve our GRC portfolio from point solutions to an integrated AI-native platform, you'll define what we build, ensure flawless execution, and drive adoption that creates measurable customer value. You'll have primary ownership of one or more products within our compliance and risk management suite, with flexibility to contribute across our broader portfolio as strategic priorities evolve. 

This is a hands-on IC role focused on core product management craft (70%) with meaningful go-to-market partnership (30%). You'll work closely with the VP of Product Management GRC, partnering with Engineering to ship high-quality products while collaborating across Sales, Marketing, and Customer Success to drive customer adoption and business results.

• Own product roadmap and backlog for your product area, making prioritization decisions that balance customer value, technical feasibility, and business impact 
• Write comprehensive scoping and positioning documents, PRDs and product specifications that give Engineering clear context on the problem, success criteria, and requirements 
• Create detailed user stories, acceptance criteria, and mockups/wireframes in collaboration with UX 
• Partner closely with Engineering throughout development - clarifying requirements, making trade-off decisions, reviewing implementations, and ensuring quality 
• Drive product decisions for AI-powered capabilities within your domain, determining how we leverage intelligence to improve customer outcomes 
• Conduct competitive analysis and market research to identify opportunities and inform product strategy 
• Define success metrics for features and track adoption, usage, and customer outcomes post-launch 

Go-to-Market Partnership & Enablement (30%)
