The Role

Your mission will be to help translate the product vision into product specifications. These specifications are:

Internally facing documentation describing product behavior for Kantox Customer Success and Implementation teams

Product specifications for engineering. This is the guiding document that engineering will use to develop the technical specifications for the product.

The Product Owner forms part of the engineering team working alongside them in a Scrum based approach guided by the Scrum Master.


Manifesto:

The product vision at Kantox is established by the founders. This covers the commercial vision (the needs of the marketplace), the strategic vision (partnerships and long term viability of Kantox) as well as the technical vision.

Requirements

  • Ability to think analytically and approach problems from various perspectives to elucidate hidden assumptions, corner cases, feature gaps
  • Ability to write clear product specifications for the various stakeholders
  • Creative problem solver.
  • Native or proficient in English.
  • Fearless communicator willing to call out issues when encountered and help work towards their resolution
  • Curiosity to understand user behaviour and the complexities of a b2b fintech product.
