The Product Manager will drive product initiatives for digital banking, collaborating with teams to deliver customer-focused solutions while balancing compliance with user experience.
About Wahed:
The global financial system wasn't built for everyone. For millions of people, its reliance on interest (riba) creates a barrier to managing money and building wealth without compromising their values.
At Wahed, we're changing that. We are a global fintech company on a mission to build a new financial system—one that is ethical, accessible, and entirely interest-free. From our offices across the globe, our team is building products that were once deemed impossible, from pioneering Shariah-compliant equity ETFs, creating true riba-free alternatives to high yield savings accounts, to creating no-leverage real estate investments for truly interest-free income producing assets. If you're driven to solve complex problems and believe finance should empower, not exclude, join us in building a more equitable financial future.

You'll own specific features and product initiatives end-to-end, working closely with various stakeholders to align on vision and strategy. We're looking for someone with experience in FinTechs or digital banking environments, combined with a startup mindset that thrives on getting things done. You'll collaborate with design, engineering, compliance, and business teams to deliver customer-first solutions that balance usability, scalability, and regulatory requirements.
Job Description:
- Own and drive product initiatives within our digital banking roadmap from ideation to launch.
- Collaborate with engineering and design teams to translate product requirements into well-scoped user stories and deliverables.
- Conduct customer research, competitor analysis, and data-driven validation to inform product decisions.
- Balance compliance and regulatory requirements with usability and customer experience.
- Partner with business stakeholders to align features with commercial goals.
- Track KPIs and measure product success, iterating quickly to improve adoption and engagement.
- Support integration with third-party providers (payments, KYC, core banking, etc.) where needed.
- Participate in regular product reviews and contribute to refining the long-term product vision.
Job Specification:
- 3–5 years of product management experience in FinTech, banking, or financial services.
- Demonstrated success in shipping customer-facing B2C products.
- Strong preference for experience in digital banking environments, payments, cards, or user wallets.
- Strong familiarity with Agile product development processes.
- Proficiency in hands-on data analysis, A/B testing, and metrics-driven decision-making.
- Ability to collaborate cross-functionally, balancing input from engineering, design, compliance, and business stakeholders.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
- Startup mentality: hands-on, execution-focused, and comfortable with ambiguity.
- Empathy and a customer-centric mindset, with strong attention to detail.
- Driving meaningful financial inclusion, not just shipping features
- Working with senior stakeholders to shape vision, not “being handed tickets”
- Building products with real-world regulatory and customer impact
- Operating as a true owner in a scaling, mission-led FinTech
