Principal Product Manager

Job description

WHY SOCURE? Socure is building the identity trust infrastructure for the digital economy — verifying 100% of good identities in real time and stopping fraud before it starts. The mission is big, the problems are complex, and the impact is felt by businesses, governments, and millions of people every day. We hire people who want that level of responsibility. People who move fast, think critically, act like owners, and care deeply about solving customer problems with precision. If you want predictability or narrow scope, this won’t be your place. If you want to help build the future of identity with a team that holds a high bar for itself — keep reading. ABOUT THE ROLE We are looking for a seasoned Principal Product Manager to help accelerate Socure’s emerging products across fraud, identity, and payments. The initial focus will be Account Intelligence, with the opportunity to expand into other consortium-powered products as the portfolio evolves. This is a unique opportunity to shape and scale products in a complex, data-intensive space. You will work closely with customers to understand their needs, establish the product vision and direction, and partner with Engineering and Data Science to bring new capabilities to market. The ideal candidate has experience building data-driven B2B products, setting multi-year product strategies, and translating complex customer and technical problems into simple, scalable solutions. Relevant experience in payments, account verification, fraud, identity, or an adjacent financial-services domain is essential for success in this role. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Define and drive the multi-year vision, strategy, and roadmap for Account Intelligence, initially focused on bank account status and ownership verification, with expansion into additional payment instruments and consortium-powered products. - Identify and lead new product opportunities from early customer discovery through launch, adoption, and scale. - Develop a deep understanding of customer workflows, pain points, and alternatives, using those insights to shape product priorities and differentiation. - Partner closely with Engineering and Data Science to translate customer and business needs into clear product requirements, success metrics, and scalable solutions. - Lead cross-functional collaboration across Sales, Customer Success, Product Marketing, Finance, Legal, Privacy, and Operations. - Conduct market and competitive research to identify industry trends, emerging technologies, regulatory developments, and new growth opportunities. - Own the business performance of the product, including adoption, pricing, costs, revenue, and profitability. - Communicate complex product, data, and technical concepts in clear, compelling, and easy-to-understand terms. - Drive organizational alignment and secure support for major product investments and long-term initiatives. WHAT YOU BRING - 10+ years of product management experience, with demonstrated ownership of complex products or product portfolios. - Experience defining multi-year product strategies and translating them into actionable roadmaps that deliver measurable customer and business outcomes. - Demonstrated ability to lead products from early-stage development through commercialization and scale. - Strong customer orientation, with experience building direct relationships and using customer insights to guide product decisions. - Experience working closely with Engineering and Data Science on data-intensive, API, platform, or AI/ML-powered products. - Strong analytical and financial acumen, including the ability to use data to prioritize investments, build business cases, and evaluate trade-offs. - Proven ability to lead complex cross-functional initiatives and influence senior stakeholders without direct authority. - Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including experience presenting product strategy and priorities to executive audiences. - Ability to operate with ownership and urgency in an ambiguous, rapidly evolving environment. - Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical experience. - Ability to travel occasionally. - Experience in payments, bank-account verification, fraud, identity, risk, fintech, or financial services. - Experience building products that combine proprietary, partner, customer-contributed, or consortium data. - Familiarity with network effects, data partnerships, or products whose value increases as participation and data coverage grow. - Experience launching products internationally or working across multiple markets and regulatory environments. - Experience with SQL, analytics tools, experimentation, or model-performance measurement. - Advanced degree in a business, technical, or analytical discipline.
