About the job
The Role
Join us as a Principal Product Manager for our Transaction Fraud product area within the Risk Applications tribe. This is a pivotal individual contributor role where you will have significant commercial accountability, overseeing business outcomes in your domain, not merely focusing on delivery.
You will collaborate within a dedicated squad alongside an engineering manager and engineers. As the PPM, you will be the senior partner in product decisions, owning customer requirements, competitive context, and commercial logic. Your engineering counterpart will manage architecture, sizing, and implementation. In Risk Apps, the PPM is responsible for setting the product specification.
Transaction Fraud is a new initiative for ComplyAdvantage, strategically positioned at the intersection of our compliance intelligence capabilities, such as the intelligence graph, entity resolution, sanctions, and adverse media data, and real-time transaction decision-making. Your mission is to leverage this unique advantage to develop a product that stands out in the market.
Operating within a structured product operating model with clear decision rights, you will translate the product vision set by the CPTO and the tribe-level roadmap established by the Product Director into actionable plans with measurable returns. Each squad represents a substantial investment, and you are expected to make informed product decisions that weigh the required investment against the commercial returns of specific product choices. If you have experience in organizations where product management is both disciplined and commercially accountable, you will thrive in this environment. If you seek a role with complete strategic autonomy and no governance framework, this position may not be suitable for you.
What You Will Do
Own fraud as a product area with a GM mindset. Understand the competitive landscape, know the buyer, and be accountable for the product's commercial success. Frame decisions based on return on investment rather than just feature lists.
Build for a specific market. Transaction fraud in financial institutions is distinct from generic fraud prevention. You must comprehend the relationship between transaction monitoring (regulatory obligation) and fraud detection (financial loss prevention), real-time decisioning requirements, the regulatory landscape (PSD2 SCA, APP fraud liability, UK reimbursement rules), and how our existing data assets provide differentiation. We require deep domain expertise, not generalists learning fraud on the job.
Engage directly with customers and prospects. You will be the product voice in fraud discussions with customers...
