Purpose of Job

The ideal candidate has strong product instincts, understands how to work with both ambiguity and complexity, and has a customer-first mindset. While prior experience in small business banking is preferred, it is not required.

  • Ensure always-on availability and performance of the SBB platform in alignment with EQ Bank’s 24/7 digital banking model 
  • Conduct customer discovery, user interviews, and competitive analysis to inform decisions 
  • Manage vendor relationships and evaluate partnerships that extend value for small business customers 
  • Coordinate with internal stakeholders (CX, marketing, legal, etc.) to support product launches and change management activities 
  • Monitor product metrics, adoption rates, and customer satisfaction to inform continuous improvements 
  • Facilitate day-to-day problem solving and drive resolution on product or technical blockers 
  • Represent the SBB product team in scrum ceremonies and cross-functional planning sessions 

Let's Talk About You!

  • Have 5+ years of product management experience 
  • Have 2+ years of banking/finance/fintech experience in delivering digital products in an agile environment 
  • Experience with small business or commercial banking products is a plus but not required 
  • Familiarity with APIs, core banking systems, and third-party integrations (e.g., accounting, payment processors) 
  • Demonstrated success delivering customer-facing digital products end-to-end 
  • Ability to manage cross-functional stakeholders and influence without direct authority 
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills 
  • Proven ability to make decisions with data and customer insights 
  • Comfortable operating in fast-paced and ambiguous environments 
  • Post-secondary degree in business, technology, or a related field 
  • Experience in fintech or a Canadian financial institution is an asset
