Senior Product Builder
NorthThis Senior Product Manager role in the fintech space focuses on rapid prototyping and technical execution. You will bridge the gap between strategy and engineering by building functional proof-of-concepts using AI tools.
What you’d own
- End-to-end proof-of-concept features for mobile, desktop, and hardware
- Technical specifications, wireframes, and schema definitions
- Direct merchant discovery and feedback integration
- AI-assisted code generation and functional prototyping
Who it’s for
A fit if you…
- ✓You have 8+ years of experience in technical product roles
- ✓You possess hands-on mobile development skills (iOS/Android)
- ✓You are proficient with SQL, JavaScript, and REST APIs
- ✓You are comfortable using LLM APIs and AI coding agents daily
Not for you if…
- ✗You prefer high-level strategy over hands-on technical building
- ✗You prefer waiting for design cycles rather than prototyping yourself
- ✗You lack experience with hardware ecosystems or payment systems
Reading between the lines
- The 'builder' title and requirement to build prototypes without waiting for design cycles suggests a high degree of autonomy and a need for speed over polished process.
- The emphasis on 'technical depth' and 'no translation delays' implies the engineering team expects highly granular, developer-ready specifications.
