About the Money Movement Role 💰💸
We’re building the future of how money moves for Canadians. Think of all the ways you move money into and out of your bank account today. You pay your bills, you receive your pay, you wire money to friends and family, you save a little, you spend a little. These are all examples ”money movements” and many of the core reasons why so many KOHO users come to KOHO every single day.
For this role, we’re looking for a product manager to own the vision and delivery of our roadmap going forward. We’re off to a great start so far, but we can always get better. How can we allow our users to do photo-cheque deposits? How can we optimize the experience for non-KOHO users when they receive money from KOHO users, so that they in turn might become KOHO users? How can we make money movements faster, cheaper, more reliable for our users? If you want to own finding the answer for all these questions and more, then this role is for you.
In this role, you will set the vision for money movement at KOHO. You’ll build out the roadmap, drive alignment and work cross-functionally to deliver best-in-class, polished consumer experiences for our users. You’ll create moments that will make users go “Aha, cool!” and smile. You’ll brighten up their day and when your work is working at its best, our users might not even notice it at all - it’ll be frictionless, and simple allowing our users get back to their busy days. Internally, your cross-functional peers will look to you to set the north star and bring everyone along together to turn your vision into a reality for our users.
A little About You
- 🎓 You are experienced -What this means for us: You have 3+ years of work experience in product management. Previous experience working with a fintech company is preferred, given the technical, regulatory, and ecosystem complexity within this role.
- 🤔 You are a critical thinker - What this means for us: You think critically, you’re intellectually curious and you have strong reasoning skills. You keep asking questions, you keep breaking the problem down, you keep pushing until you get to the root-cause. You do not inherit, you do not presume, you do not do because it has always been done. You put our hands up when you don’t understand, you ask why, you do not worry about looking silly, you do not stop until you understand.
- 🤖 You are systematic - What this means for us: You build systems that scale. You build on top of best practises. You deploy local learnings for global impact. You don’t just look for the way to solve the problem, you look for the way to solve the problem so that it’s never a problem again.
- 🔥 You are an accelerant - What this means for us: You’re the momentum booster in the team. You accelerate the best ideas. You rapidly uncover value for our users. You move at pace to build a machine that is greater than the sum of its parts.
- 🔍 You are objective - What this means for us: You have a strong data-driven approach in decision making. The numbers lead the way. The best idea wins the right to be worked on. You prioritize based on impact and effort assumptions and our assumptions are grounded in numbers. You stress test your assumptions continually. You run experiments to find the signal from the noise.
- 💬 You are a crisp communicator - What this means for us: You’re the glue that bonds us all together. You direct traffic. You share outcomes, learnings, insights, updates and results. You’re the voice of the user, when they’re not in the room. Your communications are concise. When reporting out results, you use numbers, not adjectives.
- 🤠 You’re an owner - What this means for us: you own the outcomes. You find ways to keep moving the ball forward, directly and indirectly. You are empowered to work autonomously, you escalate blockers and you find a way.
