Description du poste

Powens is the trusted Open Finance partner for financial institutions and fast-growing companies across Europe and Latin America, helping them automate financial workflows, embed payments seamlessly, and turn real-time financial data into actionable decisions.

Headquartered in Barcelona and Paris, Powens operates at the intersection of financial data and payments. Through one platform and two applications, we give our customers the infrastructure to manage finances, automate accounting, assess risk, and grow their businesses.

At Powens, we ask why before we build, we take initiative and see things through, we move from problem to solution together, and we work seamlessly across Europe as one team. If you enjoy pushing things forward rather than accepting the status quo, you'll fit in here.

We are a trusted partner to leading financial institutions and software providers, and we achieve this by hiring exceptional people. Joining Powens means being part of an inclusive, multicultural, and international team of over 130 employees.

Job Description

As a Senior Product Manager, you will occupy a pivotal leadership role designed to bridge the gap between high-level product strategy and world-class execution. You will act as the driving force behind your product scope, sitting at the intersection of customer needs, business goals, and technical feasibility.

Reporting directly to the CPTO, you will lead a dedicated product area, overseeing multiple squads and their respective Product Owners (2). Your mission is to foster a culture of excellence, data-driven discovery, and iterative delivery.

• Team Leadership: Directly manage a team of Product Owners and/or Product Managers. You will be responsible for setting clear objectives, measuring performance through KPIs (cycle times, completion rates), and driving long-term career development.
• Product Discovery and User Insight: Develop a profound understanding of customer behavior. Conduct regular discovery interviews and analyze usage data to identify pain points and articulate features that solve real-world problems.
• Operational Excellence: Ensure squads follow a rigorous prioritization framework and agile methodologies. You will provide the necessary support to POs to help them manage backlogs, remove blockers, and meet release plan quality standards.
• Stakeholder Synergy: Maintain a constant, transparent link between squads and internal/external stakeholders (Revenue, CSM, Engineering, Integration). You will act as a facilitator to increase the team’s business knowledge and autonomy.
• Go-to-Market Support: Assist Revenue and Marketing teams in understanding the product value proposition, helping to articulate key messages and support documentation or internal training.

Qualities and skills required

• Experience: Minimum of 7 years of experience in Product Management, specifically within Fintech SaaS or banking environments. At least 2 years of proven experience managing other product professionals.
