I’m working with a growing financial technology business that is looking to hire an experienced Product Owner to support the continued development of its core platform.
This is a hands-on delivery role for someone who is strong at turning business needs into clear product requirements, working closely with engineering teams, and owning initiatives through to completion.
The successful person will sit between Product, Engineering and business stakeholders, helping translate priorities into executable development work while maintaining strong ownership of the backlog and delivery process.
What the role looks like: Owning product initiatives from requirements through development, testing, and release
Breaking down broader objectives into epics, user stories, and acceptance criteria
Managing and prioritizing the product backlog in Jira
Running backlog refinement and planning sessions with engineering
Working closely with developers to resolve blockers and keep delivery on track
Managing multiple concurrent initiatives and competing priorities
Coordinating dependencies across different teams and workstreams
Validating completed functionality against requirements
Communicating progress, risks, and delivery priorities to stakeholders
Supporting user-facing workflow improvements across a complex financial technology platform
Working independently with a high degree of ownership and accountability
What they’re looking for: Strong experience as a Product Owner or in a closely related Product Management role
Proven experience owning software initiatives from requirements through delivery




Hands-on experience managing product backlogs
Experience writing user stories, requirements, and acceptance criteria
Experience working closely with software engineering teams
Background in financial services, fintech, trading technology, or another complex software environment
Solid understanding of Agile and the software development lifecycle
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
Ability to work autonomously and drive initiatives through to completion
Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage competing priorities
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
Useful experience: Capital markets or trading technology
User-facing workflow products
SaaS or software vendor environments
Products serving multiple customers or stakeholder groups
Agile, Scrum, or Kanban
Jira and Confluence
Rapid prototyping or MVP delivery
Experience balancing business priorities with engineering capacity
Why it’s interesting: This is a strong opportunity for someone who enjoys the execution side of Product Ownership and wants genuine responsibility for getting complex initiatives delivered.
The role offers significant autonomy, close collaboration with Product and Engineering, and the chance to work on a sophisticated financial technology platform with a broad institutional user base.
The successful person will have real ownership over delivery, prioritization, and execution rather than operating in a purely strategic or coordination-focused Product role.
Compensation and benefits: CAD $150K-$180K base salary, depending on experience
Discretionary annual bonus
Equity included
