The Role
We are looking for a Principal Product Manager to drive product strategy and product management across the Core Banking domain and to own the most complex, cross-functional core related initiatives. This is a senior individual-contributor role: you set direction, connect product strategy to the platform's technical strategy, and deliver measurable outcomes in partnership with engineering.
You will operate with a high degree of autonomy, sponsoring pre-consensus bets with a written thesis, setting operating rhythms for the Core PM group, and influencing VP/SVP stakeholders through documented trade-offs.

• Connecting product strategy to org-level technical strategy; anchoring build vs. buy vs. partner.
• Product GTM with measurable outcomes and documented reviews, in partnership with Marketing, Sales, Ops, and client teams.
• Operating models and planning frameworks for the Core PM group; standards and playbooks other PMs build on.

• Make informed trade-offs across speed, quality, scalability, and regulatory requirements.
Delivery & Execution
• Partner with Engineering Managers on prioritization, sequencing, planning, and dependency management across teams and squads.
• Set operating rhythms and planning frameworks; remove cross-team hurdles and drive quality and ve
