Job description

We’re working with a fast-growing technology business using AI and large-scale data to transform how organisations conduct due diligence and risk research.

This is an opportunity for a technically confident Product Manager to take ownership of the data, APIs and integrations that sit at the heart of the platform. You’ll join a collaborative, fast-moving environment and work closely with Engineering, commercial teams and enterprise customers.

The Role

As Technical Product Manager, you’ll own the technical side of the product across three closely connected areas: external data sources, the way the platform processes and investigates that data, and the APIs and integrations connecting it with customers’ existing systems.

This is a hands-on role for someone comfortable reading API documentation, mapping data flows and working through technical trade-offs with engineers.

You’ll take problems from early discovery through to delivery and adoption, translating technical detail into a clear roadmap that both engineering teams and commercial stakeholders can understand.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Own the roadmap for the external data sources feeding the company’s research platform.
• Assess new data providers based on coverage, quality, licensing, cost and customer value.
• Work with Engineering to define how data is ingested, matched, processed and presented.
• Shape how the platform uses different sources across a range of customer use cases.
• Help turn due diligence knowledge and customer needs into effective product behaviour.
• Own integrations with CRMs, onboarding platforms, screening tools and case-management systems.
• Define functional and non-functional requirements, including security, compliance and scalability.
• Own the direction of customer-facing APIs and emerging agent-based capabilities.
• Contribute to decisions around API design, versioning, backwards compatibility and developer experience.
• Create clear documentation and examples for technical customers and partners.
• Lead discovery using customer conversations, product data and market insight.
• Define success metrics and use real-world data to improve product performance.
• Drive alignment across Product, Engineering, Solutions, Support and commercial teams.

About You

We’re looking for a Product Manager with strong technical understanding who can operate confidently between customers, commercial stakeholders and engineering teams.

You’ll ideally bring:

• Product management experience within a B2B SaaS environment.
• Meaningful experience working on technical products such as APIs, integrations, data platforms or developer tools.
• A strong understanding of data products and how information is sourced, ingested, mapped, processed and surfaced.
• Confidence discussing APIs, webhooks, data mapping and authentication with engineers.
• The ability to read technical documentation and contribute effectively to technical design discussions.
• Hands-on experience with tools such as Postman, Swagger or OpenAPI.
• A track record of taking technical products or features from an ambiguous problem through to delivery.
• Strong analytical skills and experience using metrics and usage data to guide decisions.
• The ability to explain technical constraints clearly to non-technical stakeholders.
• A proactive approach and confidence taking ownership in a fast-growing environment.
• Curiosity about AI and experience using emerging tools to support prototyping, design or product development.

Experience in due diligence, compliance, risk, governance or another data-heavy or regulated sector would be beneficial but isn’t essential.

Familiarity with LLMs, agent-based products, third-party data providers or commercial data licensing would also be advantageous.

What’s on Offer

The company offers a strong benefits package, including:

• Employee share and equity programme
• Private health insurance
• Life insurance
• Unlimited annual leave
• £1,000 annual professional-development budget
• Genuine ownership of an important area of the product
• The opportunity to work with complex data and emerging AI technology

You’ll be joining a growing business at an exciting stage, with the autonomy to shape a technically important product area and have a visible impact on how its platform and customer offering develop.

If you’re a technically minded Product Manager who enjoys working with complex data, APIs and integrations, we’d love to hear from you.
