In this role, you can expect to:
• Own the product vision, strategy, and roadmap for ChimeCore, aligning platform investments to company-level priorities and long-term scalability needs. • Lead and mentor a small team of IC Product Managers, setting a high bar for technical rigor, execution, and stakeholder communication. • Partner closely with Engineering, Infrastructure, Risk, Compliance, Finance, and Operations to deliver reliable, compliant, and scalable platform capabilities. • Drive clarity on APIs, internal tooling, data flows, and system boundaries to improve developer velocity and reduce operational risk. • Balance short-term delivery needs with long-term architectural investments, including platform modernization and resiliency initiatives. • Establish clear success metrics for platform health, reliability, and adoption across internal teams. • Act as a key product voice for ChimeCore in executive-level discussions, translating technical tradeoffs into business impact.
