Job description

• At Nymbus, the AI Technical Product Manager, Digital Banking is the primary builder in our squad triad model
• You are responsible for transforming product vision into reality. Working within a dedicated squad alongside an Architect (who owns system design and technical integrity) and a Shipper (who owns delivery, quality, and release), you own the build, from specification through implementation
• You operate with an AI-first, spec-first mindset, leveraging tools like Kiro and Claude to accelerate every phase of product creation
• This is not a traditional product owner or product management role. You bring your own experience, research, and creativity to design products end-to-end, authoring specifications, shaping system behavior, and iterating rapidly using AI-assisted workflows
• You own the “what” and the “how,” translating domain problems into working, shippable software
• This role sits at the center of our transformation, where AI, product design, and development converge to redefine how financial software is built
• You operate as one-third of a high-autonomy squad:
• Technical Product Manager / Builder (This Role): Owns product intent, specification, and implementation
• You are the primary creator — designing system behavior, authoring specs, and iterating with AI tools to produce working software. Deep domain knowledge is a plus; the ability to acquire it quickly is a must
• Architect (Your Partner): Owns system design, technical integrity, and cross-squad consistency
• The Architect ensures your solutions are scalable, maintainable, and aligned with platform architecture. You collaborate daily on data models, API contracts, and integration patterns
• Shipper (Your Partner): Owns delivery, quality assurance, release management, and operational readiness
• The Shipper ensures what you build meets quality standards, passes validation, and reaches production reliably. You collaborate on acceptance criteria, test coverage, and deployment strategy
• Together, the triad owns outcomes end-to-end — from problem definition through production operation
• Product Design and Specification:
• Use AI tools (Kiro, Claude) to rapidly iterate on designs, edge cases, and alternative approaches
• Own end-to-end product design from problem definition through system behavior and user experience
• Author clear, testable, implementation-ready specifications using AI-assisted workflows
• Define APIs, data models, and interaction patterns in partnership with the squad Architect
• Translate business requirements and domain knowledge into buildable system specifications
• AI-First Building and Implementation:
• Build working software using AI-assisted development workflows as the primary creation method
• Generate, refine, and implement product and technical specifications using spec-driven development
• Prototype and validate solutions rapidly before committing to full implementation
• Push through ambiguity — when requirements are unclear, explore, propose, and build to learn
• Leverage AI tools as co-developers, not just assistants, to multiply output and quality
• Squad Collaboration:
• Partner daily with the Architect on API design, data modeling, and system architecture decisions
• Coordinate with the Shipper on acceptance criteria, testability, and release readiness
• Participate directly in technical design discussions and tradeoff decisions with the full triad
• Surface blockers, risks, and dependencies to the squad early and proactively
• Maintain shared context with squad partners through specifications, documentation, and working demos

Benefits

• Healthcare and Dependant Care Flexible Spending Accounts
• Nymbus Awards and Recognition
• Retirement Plan Services / 401(k)
• Parental and Disability Leaves
• Time Off and Company Holidays
• Flexibility of being Fully Remote
• Collaborative Environment
• Employer Subsidized Medical and Dental Insurance
