What the job involves
- As a Product Manager at Finalis, you will own a business area within the product, lead the creation and execution of the product strategy, and drive a diverse cross-functional team
- Our product is at a high-growth stage and you will need the ability to navigate an ambiguous, fast-paced environment. You’ll be working closely with our CEO, CPO, and world-class engineering team to create products that delight our customers and deliver value to every participant in the private capital markets ecosystem
- As a Sr Product Manager, you will play a critical role in defining and executing the product strategy and roadmap for our platform. You will be given autonomy and responsibility for driving initiatives that deliver value both for our users and our business
- Our near-term goal is to become the default software platform for any boutique or independent investment banker. To help us reach that goal, you will help us develop products that delight our users across our three pillars - compliance, data, and payments
- Define, own, and deliver business-level objectives and product strategy for our data, compliance, and payment products by developing a deep understanding of customer needs, growth opportunities, and industry trends
- Decisively solve problems through tenacious learning about our customers and internal processes - communicating the solutions and turning them into business opportunities
- Productize and lead new product initiatives, ensuring high-quality, timely execution
- Communicate effectively and work cross-functionally with stakeholders across Sales, Business Operations, Engineering, Product Design, and Compliance to ideate, develop and launch new products and features
- Identify unmet needs and markets that the company can pursue
- Synthesize quantitative data analysis with qualitative user research results to make informed product decisions
Our take
Trillions of dollars are exchanged through M&A transactions. While the playbook is known for the lawyers and bankers involved, their workflow continues to be anchored in legacy systems like email and siloed spreadsheets hampering compliance and efficiency.
Finalis hopes to upend this market with an integrated private securities brokerage technology platform. The platform’s central offering is a Hub where banks can affiliate their FINRA licenses, dramatically reducing compliance headaches.
However, Finalis wants to go much further than that with a product suite automating much of the deal process. That means further features like deal rooms and prioritised collaboration opportunities.
While many of these transactions are ‘bread and butter’, stakeholders are reticent to change partially due to the billions of dollars at stake on a deal. However, Finalis’ team, with deep sector expertise and a commitment to the highest standards, stand a good chance of overcoming the inertia in the industry.
