Job Description

Kunai builds full-stack technology solutions for banks, credit and payment networks, infrastructure providers, and their customers. Together, we are changing the world’s relationship with financial services. At Kunai, we help our clients modernize, capitalize on emerging trends, and evolve their business for the coming decades by remaining tech-agnostic and human-centered.

Join a team of engineers developing one of the most advanced data driven decision systems in the banking industry, creating real-time customer experiences and backend services that determine the credit worthiness of applicants and decision customers on new credit card products.

As a Product Owner, you'll lead the effort to build out services that support credit decision microservices, determining which card products can be assigned to new applicants. These are always-on systems that need to be highly resilient and stable with 99.99% uptime requirements.

Responsibilities

  • Define and execute technical product strategies for client initiatives.
  • Lead scrum teams focused on the development of highly resilient applications.
  • Communicate project progress and updates to stakeholders through clear and compelling presentations and reports.
  • Align product development efforts with business goals and customer requirements.
  • Leverage agile methodologies to ensure high-quality, on-time product delivery.

Skills & Qualifications

  • 5+ years of experience in Agile product management or ownership, with a proven ability to lead and support Scrum teams.
  • Strong technical foundation with background in software engineering, platform design, or solutions architecture is a major plus.
  • Experience working with cloud-based platforms, ideally focused on AWS from an engineer and/or product standpoint.
  • Exposure to Golang-based applications (a plus, not required).
  • Demonstrated success in project management and delivery, with strong strategic planning capabilities.
  • Skilled in navigating non-matrixed environments and managing initiatives that evolve beyond the original scope.
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills, able to clearly convey complex concepts to both technical and senior business stakeholders.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
  • A background in the financial services, banking, or fintech industries.

 

Competencies

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to tackle large-scale technical challenges.
  • Demonstrated expertise in leading technical projects with a focus on scalability and performance optimization.
  • Collaborative mindset and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.
  • Proven track record of delivering high-quality technical solutions that align with business objectives.

Salary Range: $120,000 - $205,000 annually
This range reflects the base salary that we reasonably expect to pay a Senior Product Owner. Actual compensation may vary depending on relevant factors including experience, skills, location, and client billing. 

Our success over the past 20 years is rooted in our exceptional team, which thrives in a culture of collaboration, creativity, and continuous learning.

We are proud to offer our employees a range of benefits, including competitive compensation, professional development opportunities, and flexible work arrangements, all designed to help them thrive. As we continue to expand, we remain committed to cultivating an environment where people feel valued, have a voice, and are given the tools to grow—both personally and professionally—while pushing the boundaries of innovation in the fintech industry.
