Role

Who you are

5+ years of product management experience in fintech, infrastructure, or platform teams
3+ years leading integrations with banks, payment processors, or financial systems
Experience with core banking platforms and associated APIs
Familiarity with payment rails (ACH, RTP, wires) and account opening flows
Strong technical fluency - comfortable working with APIs, system architecture, and backend event flows
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Proven ability to deliver complex, cross-functional initiatives from concept to launch

What the job involves

As a Technical Product Manager for Core Bank Integration at Sardine, you’ll own the strategy and execution for how we connect to banks and payment networks
These integrations are central to how Sardine moves money, manages risk, and supports customers
Your work will enable banks to activate Sardine for account opening, funding, and payments without standalone integration projects
You’ll lead the roadmap, collaborate with Engineering on scalable integration architecture, and work directly with core providers and pilot banks to achieve certifications and launches
This is a high-impact, delivery-focused role for a technically fluent PM who thrives in fast-paced, integration-heavy environments
Own the end-to-end product lifecycle for bank core integrations - from discovery to certification to live pilots
Design a scalable integration approach that supports multiple bank cores and enables rapid onboarding of new flows
Lead API mapping and integration design for each core (e.g., Fiserv Communicator Open, Jack Henry)
Build strong partnerships with core providers, pilot banks, and internal teams (Engineering, Risk, Compliance, Ops, BD, Sales) to deliver on timelines
Maintain clear API specifications, integration playbooks, mappings, and operational runbooks
Monitor pilot performance (latency, decision outcomes, reliability) and iterate for continuous improvement

Our take

Identity and payment fraud is one of the biggest dangers facing online businesses. Sardine is setting out to solve this problem by building the first zero-day fraud prevention technology.

Sardine's technology traces intrinsic behaviour patterns to identify so-called "bad actors" online, and detects fraudsters using machine-learned fraud scores and user behavior biometrics.

The company calls itself the world's first FaaS (Fraud Detection as a Service), and its solutions are already drawing business from next-gen crypto and financial service institutions. Onboarding these institutions and scaling its customer base at pace will ensure that Sardine maintains its frontrunner position.
