Technical Product Manager

Kunai

This Product Manager role focuses on backend infrastructure and distributed systems within a fintech environment. You will manage the core technical services powering credit decisioning, fulfillment, and loan acquisitions.

What you’d own

  • Product roadmap for credit decisioning, fulfillment, and acquisitions
  • Backend services and distributed systems for loan origination
  • Platform-based products designed to scale across multiple use cases
  • Scrum team management including backlog and delivery ceremonies

Who it’s for

A fit if you…

  • Experience managing backend services and distributed systems
  • Background in banking, financial services, or credit decisioning
  • Comfortable navigating technical details and AWS infrastructure
  • Skilled at translating complex business rules into technical specs

Not for you if…

  • You prefer front-end focused product work over backend systems
  • You prefer a role with low stakeholder complexity or ambiguity
  • You prefer to avoid deep involvement in technical architecture decisions

Reading between the lines

  • The emphasis on 'platform-based products' and 'distributed systems' suggests a high degree of technical complexity over simple UI features.
  • Requirement to align with risk and compliance stakeholders implies a highly regulated environment with strict governance.

Kunai is a financial services software consultancy that ships product development, AI and automation, cloud engineering, and data engineering for the world's largest banks, credit and payment networks, and fintechs. The firm operates as a hands-on agency partner rather than a traditional Big Four advisor — its founders came out of major banks and fintechs frustrated with existing consultants, and the work spans clients like Plaid, Nubank, and five of the top ten US banks. The team is global and remote, with team members emphasizing project variety, leadership access, and a startup-style culture across big-name client engagements. Founded in 2015 and led by CEO Sandeep Sood, Kunai was acquired by PwC US in 2025 to extend PwC's financial services tech capabilities.
