The RoleWe are seeking a Principal Product Manager to take the lead on our Payment Screening product within the Risk Applications team. This senior individual contributor position entails significant commercial accountability; you will be responsible for driving business outcomes in your domain, focusing not just on delivery but on overall success.Payment screening serves as a critical compliance mechanism, necessitating that financial institutions and other entities screen payments for regulatory and compliance risks in real-time prior to processing. The landscape is well-established, with a mature market and clear requirements. ComplyAdvantage has a loyal customer base for screening and has recently unveiled a new version of its payment screening product, built on our robust, scalable, and AI-driven Mesh platform. As the Principal Product Manager, you will likely engage with this latest offering as it launches, addressing the strong demand for enhanced features from our commercial teams and managing the transition for customers currently utilizing the legacy platform.This position focuses on growth and scalability rather than developing a product from scratch. A modern and sophisticated version of the product is already available, and your role will involve determining the next steps: identifying features that unlock maximum commercial value, overseeing the migration of existing customers to the new platform, and ensuring the product remains competitive against established players while addressing immediate field needs.

Each squad represents a significant engineering investment, and you are expected to weigh your product decisions in terms of investment versus expected commercial returns. If you have previously worked in organizations where product management is methodical and accountable, this environment will feel familiar. However, if you seek a role with complete strategic autonomy and no governance framework, this position may not be the right fit for you.What You Will DoOwn the payment screening product area with a General Manager mindset.
