Description

An international FinTech company is hiring a Product Engineer for the Investment Operations product area, building enterprise products that simplify investments, accounting and operations for financial institutions worldwide. The role combines business analysis, engineering quality and agile delivery: shaping requirements from business goals, prototyping early, reviewing deliverables and owning the product backlog. AI tools such as Copilot and Claude are part of the everyday routine, with critical evaluation of AI-generated output. The position involves close collaboration with colleagues in Ukraine, Poland, Denmark and Germany.

Responsibilities

Business analysis translating business goals and user needs into product opportunities with clear value hypotheses
Prototype solutions early and often to validate ideas before committing to full build
Define scope collaboratively with stakeholders, keeping scope anchored to user value rather than feature count
Track and communicate the impact of what ships, delivering outcomes not just output
Write and review technical requirements and acceptance criteria that leave no ambiguity at implementation time
Assess feasibility early and frame build-versus-integrate trade-offs in terms of delivery impact, risk and value
Review and test deliverables against requirements, run validation and hold the quality bar
Identify and highlight technical debt and systemic risks before they become delivery blockers
Keep system documentation live and accurate, treated as a product asset
Use AI tools such as Copilot and Claude fluently as part of everyday working routines and prototyping
Critically evaluate AI-generated artifacts, verifying correctness and architectural fit before accepting
Guide the team on responsible AI usage including when to trust, override and review it
Identify where AI can accelerate prototyping cycles and reduce low-value work in the team
Maintain a healthy prioritized product backlog with each item sized, scoped and ready for the team
Work closely with software engineers during implementation, unblocking, reviewing and course-correcting in real time
Act as the connective tissue between stakeholders and the delivery team, clear in both directions

Requirements

Strong software engineering fundamentals in development and testing disciplines
Demonstrated ability to move from problem statement to working prototype quickly
Experience writing precise technical requirements and acceptance criteria
Hands-on quality assurance including test design, validation and defect triage
Experience working directly with clients or external counterparties
Solid grounding in financial instruments such as Repos, Derivatives or related collateral and securities products
Comfortable running demos, gathering requirements from business users and translating business workflows into system behavior
Comfort working in ambiguity and structuring problems before solving them
Strong stakeholder communication able to translate between technical and non-technical audiences
Regular use of AI coding assistants such as Copilot, Claude or equivalent in a professional context
Demonstrated critical evaluation of AI-generated outputs rather than simply accepting them
Understanding of AI limitations relevant to software delivery including hallucination, context loss and security blind spots
Agile practitioner fluent in Scrum ceremonies, backlog management and iterative delivery
Strong documentation habits treating the knowledge base as part of the product
Collaborative by default and decisive when needed

Conditions

Flexible working hours and hybrid model with 2 days in the office and 3 days remote
Modern office next to Wilanowska metro station with quiet zones and ergonomic workstations
Base salary with annual bonus structure

Occasional remote work across Poland and international options, up to 24 domestic and 20 international days per year subject to internal policy
