Hello. We’re Teya.
Teya was founded on a simple belief: local businesses deserve better.
They are the cafés, restaurants, salons, shops and entrepreneurs that bring character to our high streets, create jobs and keep communities moving. Yet for too long, financial services has made life harder for them - with clunky tools, poor support and complexity that gets in the way of running a business.
Teya exists to change that.
We’re building a financial platform for local businesses across Europe - one built around simple tools, thoughtful design and real human support. Our Members rely on us to help them run their business with confidence, and that responsibility shapes the way we work.
We move fast. We care about quality. We stay close to the detail. And we believe great performance and genuine hospitality should go hand in hand.
If you want to build meaningful products, solve real problems and make a genuine difference for local businesses, we’d love to hear from you
At Teya, we're building the operating system small businesses actually want to run their day on — payments, banking, and AI-powered tools that quietly do the boring work in the background. We're hiring a Senior Product Manager in Porto to own a core area of the app and ship features that turn a card reader into a genuine business companion.
Your mission
Own the roadmap and delivery for a critical area of the Teya merchant app, keeping every bet tied to our long-term strategy of becoming the financial backbone for European SMBs
Ship AI-native experiences that do real work for merchants
Lead app launches end-to-end: from zero-to-one feature design through activation curves, retention loops, and the boring plumbing that makes them stick
Turn insight into sharp specs, fast prototypes, and a prioritised backlog — working shoulder-to-shoulder with Design, Engineering, Data, Marketing, and Ops
Balance the quick wins that unlock near-term engagement with the long bets that compound: product adoption, cross-product activation, platform stickiness
Define success upfront (north-star, guardrails, KPI trees) and close the loop post-launch with validation data and the next iteration
Partner with our banking, payments, and lending teams to weave our products into merchant workflows, not ship disconnected features
Champion the merchant's voice across the company — with a bias toward simplicity, speed, and trust
Your story
5+ years in product management, ideally with real fintech, banking, or SMB SaaS experience — bonus points if you've shipped consumer-grade mobile experiences at scale
You've taken AI features to production
Strong commercial instinct: you understand unit economics, the cost of capital in a fintech, and why a roadmap isn't just a wishlist
BA/BS in a technical or analytical field; comfortable reading SQL, reasoning about statistical significance, and pushing back on a weak experiment design
Data-driven: you formulate hypotheses, run A/B tests that actually answer the question, and decide on evidence — not vibes
You see the endgame but obsess over the detail — the empty state, the onboarding copy, the 1% conversion lift
Builder's mindset: you thrive on zero-to-one, then stick around to scale, polish, and fix the unglamorous stuff
Comfortable with ambiguity — you write the brief before anyone asks for one
Clear, empathetic communicator who can align a staff engineer and a Head of Sales in the same meeting
Customer-obsessed: you spend time with real merchants, not just in prototyping
Teya is proud to be an equal opportunity employer.
