As Senior Product Manager, you will own one or more product squads within the Compliance & Risk Platform (e.g., onboarding, risk system, or operational tooling), shaping the roadmap, partnering with engineering, design, compliance, and ops, and driving measurable outcomes against KAST's product objectives.
What You'll Do
- Own a compliance product domain end-to-end - define vision, strategy, and roadmap for a squad such as KYC/KYB onboarding & RFI, Risk control and restriction, or operational tooling, balancing user experience, operator efficiency, and regulatory rigor.
- Translate compliance and risk requirements into scalable products- partner with Legal, Compliance, AML/Fraud Ops, and Engineering to convert regulatory obligations (KYC, AML, sanctions screening, transaction monitoring, travel rule, jurisdiction-specific reporting) into clear PRDs and shippable features.
- Drive frictionless user experiences - design tiered, jurisdiction-aware KYC flows, contextual RFI experiences, and clear restriction/notification UX that reduce drop-off and support tickets while meeting regulatory bar.
- Build operational tooling at scale - define and ship internal tools that streamline compliance and risk workflows, improving processes with structured tools and automation.
- Partner with risk & vendor ecosystems - collaborate with third-party vendors (IDV, risk engines, on-chain analytics, etc) and fiat/crypto partners to align regulatory requirements, end to end user flows, and necessary compliance enforcement.
- Measure what matters - define and track key metrics across user experience, decision quality, operational efficiency, and audit readiness, and translate insights into product improvements.
- Lead cross-functionally - coordinate execution across global, distributed teams; communicate priorities, trade-offs, and risks clearly to senior stakeholders in Compliance, Risk, Customer Service, and leadership team.
What We're Looking For
- 5-8+ years of Product Management experience, with at least 2–3 years building compliance, risk, identity, payments, trust & safety products, or AI-assisted workflows in fintech, crypto, or regulated financial services.
- Hands-on domain expertise in compliance domain and tools - KYC/KYB, AML, sanctions screening, transaction monitoring, case investigation, SAR/STR reporting, or enforcement & restriction workflows.
- Track record of shipping scalable platforms - has delivered 0→1 and 1→N products in fast-paced, ambiguous environments; comfortable with both user-facing flows and back-office operator tooling.
- Strong systems thinking - able to design products that span multiple vendors, internal engines, and partner integrations while keeping data, rules, and audit trails coherent.
- Data-driven decision making - fluent in defining metrics, reading dashboards, and using data (funnel analysis, false-positive analysis, ops productivity) to drive prioritization.
- Excellent written and verbal communication - can write a crisp PRD, run a productive cross-functional review, and align senior compliance/risk stakeholders.
- Agile delivery experience - comfortable with modern product development practices, sprint cadences, and partnering closely with engineering and design.
- Experience building or operating in-house operational tools and or decision engines.
- Exposure to multi-jurisdiction compliance (LATAM, EMEA, APAC) and partner-driven product models.
