Original job description
What You’ll Do
- Lead delivery end to end: Own planning, execution, and tracking for a complex AI product initiative, keeping scope, timelines, and stakeholders aligned.
- Requirements mastery: Run discovery with clients and internal teams, translate needs into clear PRDs, user stories, and acceptance criteria.
- Drive execution, not just coordination: Break down complex problems, sequence work, unblock teams, and ensure momentum week over week.
- Client-facing leadership: Run working sessions, status updates, and milestone reviews with enterprise financial services clients.
- Product judgment: Make tradeoffs between speed, quality, and scope, with a strong bias toward shipping usable value.
- Partner closely with Engineering and Design: Clarify intent, answer questions quickly, and keep delivery tight.
- Learn new domains fast: Absorb tax and regulatory concepts as needed, without letting domain gaps slow execution.
What We’re Looking For
Must-haves
- 4+ years experience in project management, or a hybrid role delivering software products.
- Strong background in financial services, such as asset management, banking, insurance, or regulated enterprise workflows.
- Proven ability to gather requirements and turn ambiguity into clear, actionable plans.
- Track record of shipping complex products with multiple stakeholders.
- Clear written and verbal communication. You can explain complex topics simply and precisely.
- Comfort operating in fast-moving, imperfect environments.
- A product portfolio demonstrating shipped products, delivery ownership, and decision-making. This can include PRDs, roadmaps, case studies, or similar artifacts.
Nice-to-haves
- Experience working on tax, compliance, or regulatory workflows.
- Exposure to AI-powered products, automation, or document-heavy systems.
- Experience working directly with enterprise clients.
- Familiarity with agile delivery, lightweight roadmapping, and outcome-based planning.
Why You’ll Love This Role
- High ownership and visibility on a mission-critical product.
- Direct exposure to real enterprise customers and production AI systems.
- A team that values clarity, speed, and learning over process theater.
- The chance to shape how AI agents are deployed in regulated financial services.
Required to be in person in the office in Montreal 2 days/week.
