Company mission
To bring transparency to the digital world — making it safer for everyone online.
Role
Who you are
- A technical background and fluent with technical systems: distributed transactional systems, machine learning, operational metrics, COGS, and SDK delivery. (Ability to program is a plus; you won't be building ML models but you should be able to do query, debug and do root cause analysis independently)
- Experience thriving in a scale-up: high ambiguity, fast pace, and challenging environments
- Strong understanding of B2B2C user experience: fluency in the end-user experience inside a business product
- ~5+ years of product management experience
- Experience in fintech or marketplace products
- Background in authentication, security, or identity
- Ability to program is a plus; you won't be building ML models but you should be able to do query, debug and do root cause analysis independently)
- Previous Software Engineering / Data Science development experience
What the job involves
- Biometric Authentication turns every verified user into an ongoing, secure relationship: silent re-verification, step-up authentication, and fraud prevention at the moments that matter
- The product runs in production at enterprise scale, with real cost, conversion, and latency consequences for major customers
- As this product has grown into a multi-product area, we're hiring a Senior PM to take primary ownership of Biometric Authentication: driving customer research, competitive roadmap strategy, and pricing, in close partnership with machine learning, engineering, design, sales, and GTM
- In this role, you'll be expected to operate autonomously with low management overhead, default to cross-functional collaboration, and are comfortable experimenting and shipping fast
- You'll bring enough context and judgement to make commercial trade-offs without waiting for direction
- You'll be at your best in ambiguous, fast-moving environments and on distributed, international teams
- This is a role for a PM who treats adoption, conversion, and revenue as their own problem, not one who manages a feature backlog and waits for commercial direction
- Own the product end to end. Take primary ownership of Biometric Authentication: strategy, roadmap, and execution — across a cross-functional squad of ML, engineering, and design
- Own a commercial metric. Pick up a revenue, adoption, or conversion metric, diagnose the gap, and design the customer research and process changes to close it alongside sales and GTM
- Make decisions at scale. Reason about trade-offs in cost, conversion, and latency against live enterprise contracts, in real production conditions, on a regular basis
- Run a tight customer-feedback loop. Turn enterprise customer feedback into a prioritized, defensible roadmap
- Own competitive positioning and pricing. Track the biometric and identity landscape and shape packaging and pricing grounded in real unit economics
- Operate with high agency. Get to independent operation within ~60 days and start clearing the highest-impact work early
Our take
Veriff started when the founder tried to access one of the worlds largest online marketplaces underage. He realised that, with some slight photo editing, he could easily break through their verification process. The company believes that identity is a valuable asset, and delivers real safety, protection and transparency to interactions online.
Veriff combines technical advancements in facial recognition, social ID, device ID and more into a SaaS model, that is easy to use and accessible to companies of all sizes. The service includes features such as real-time identity document verification, automated "Proof of Address" processes, and automated SSN Verification.
Veriff has continued to add to its offerings with new technologies and improvements. The considerable funds raised by the company in 2022 led to its Unicorn valuation and fuelled continued research and development. It enabled Veriff to hire more talent for its team. Partnerships with the likes of SonoSuite, a digital tech provider for the music industry, indicate Veriff's continued expansion of its products into new markets.
