About us

Fortiro is a growing fintech with a highly experienced team, backed by significant investment, and giving you the opportunity to contribute to an award-winning enterprise SaaS platform. Our technology uses emerging technologies and AI to help detect financial crime and enable automation in processes like lending and insurance claim verification. It is trusted by leading banks and financial services businesses in Australia, New Zealand, and globally.

About the role

What if you could help shape how AI transforms the way enterprise software is built, delivered and used to fight financial crime?

At Fortiro, we're looking for a Technical Product Manager to help shape the future of our core technology platform, bringing together deep technical expertise, product strategy and a genuine curiosity for what's possible with AI.

This is a role for someone who loves getting into the technical detail, understands what makes complex software platforms tick and can see how emerging technologies translate into meaningful business outcomes.

You'll work closely with engineering, product and commercial teams to shape our technology roadmap, explore AI-driven capabilities and improve the performance, scalability and reliability of our platform.

You'll also play an important role in rethinking how we build software, exploring how AI-assisted development, intelligent automation and agentic workflows can help us deliver better solutions, faster.

We're looking for someone who can challenge assumptions, make informed technical decisions and turn innovative ideas into practical outcomes. If you're excited by the intersection of AI, engineering and product strategy, this could be a fantastic opportunity to make your mark.

What you'll be doing

• Own and shape the technical product roadmap for Fortiro's core platform, aligning engineering priorities with customer needs and commercial outcomes.

• Explore emerging AI technologies, including large language models, autonomous agents and intelligent automation, identifying opportunities to improve our products and engineering processes.

• Partner closely with engineering leaders to influence platform architecture, APIs, data models and scalable, reusable technical capabilities.

• Drive improvements in the metrics that matter, including fraud detection accuracy, processing speed, platform availability, reliability and data coverage.

• Help evolve our software development lifecycle by exploring AI-assisted coding, automated testing and more efficient ways of taking products from concept to release.

• Translate complex technical capabilities into clear customer value, supporting product positioning, SaaS packaging and commercial opportunities.

• Balance innovation with security, data governance, model explainability and regulatory requirements.

• Use data, experimentation and customer insights to prioritise opportunities, measure success and continuously improve platform performance.

What you'll bring to the role

• Strong experience in technical product management, ideally within an enterprise B2B SaaS or similarly complex technology environment.

• A solid technical foundation in software engineering, computer science, systems architecture or data-intensive technology.

• Confidence working with senior engineers on backend systems, APIs, databases, cloud architecture and technical trade-offs.

• Practical knowledge of AI technologies, including LLMs, agentic workflows and AI-assisted development tools such as Cursor or GitHub Copilot.

• Experience owning technical roadmaps and delivering measurable improvements in platform performance, scalability or reliability.

• A strong understanding of modern software development practices, including agile delivery, testing, automation and continuous improvement.

• Commercial awareness and the ability to connect technical investment with customer outcomes and business value.

• Excellent analytical thinking, communication and stakeholder engagement skills, with the confidence to challenge ideas and bring people along with you.

Nice to have

• Experience with machine learning, intelligent document processing, fraud detection or data-intensive platforms.

• Exposure to fintech, financial services, banking, insurance or other regulated environments.

• Experience with API-based, cloud-native or multi-tenant SaaS platforms.

• Involvement in introducing AI-assisted engineering, automated QA or agentic workflows into software delivery.

• Experience working with commercial teams on SaaS pricing, packaging or go-to-market strategy.

Why join Fortiro?

• Be yourself: We value individuality and encourage you to work in ways that make you most productive.

• Make an impact: Help enterprise customers achieve success with world-class fraud detection solutions.

• Work on cutting-edge solutions: Join a team building innovative products that transform financial crime prevention.

• Inclusive culture: Open, diverse, and fun workplace with flexible remote and in-person options.

• Grow with us: We value curiosity and a growth mindset. You'll have opportunities to learn, take on new challenges, and develop your skills as the business evolves.
