Job Title: Senior Product Manager

Location: Remote

About The Role

• They thrive in complex, fast-moving environments and partner deeply with engineering, design, and cross-functional teams to build products grounded in simplicity, trust, and delight from day one.
• Over the years, our product craft - the operating system for how products are envisioned, built, launched, and run - has been shaped and refined by the core practices of leading tech companies, while staying true to the unique DNA that has made Moniepoint one of Africa’s fastest-growing companies.
• At Moniepoint, product management blends entrepreneurial drive, deep customer insight, and modern technology to solve the toughest problems in the service of powering the financial ambitions of millions across Africa.
• At the core of this craft are our Product Managers: outcome-driven builders who live and breathe the realities, challenges, and dreams of our customers.
• They challenge the status quo - wherever it originates - and hold a high bar for product quality and execution excellence, starting with themselves.

What You’ll Do

• Pairs business acumen with a strong product, design, and technical mindset - ideally with true fluency in technical concepts, even without an engineering degree.
• Leverage ongoing customer discovery, product analytics, and a range of experimentation techniques to validate assumptions and refine product direction and priorities.
• Break down ambiguous, complex problems into clear proposals, actionable plans, and structured tradeoff scenarios and recommendations.
• Maintain a roadmap that balances near- and long-term priorities, and the right mix of growth levers, technical investments, and risk/regulatory requirements.
• Own and drive outcomes anchored in metrics and aligned with company OKRs.
• Dive beyond dashboards and interrogate the data directly. Build your own queries and analyses to validate hypotheses, stress-test intuition, and monitor early product signals.
• Know your domain in depth: business, product, operations, customers, market, competitors, and risk/regulation.
• Cultivate relationships with customers, teams, stakeholders, and leaders to ensure product direction is clearly communicated, aligned, and grounded in real-world context.
• Own the product’s written backbone: from one-pagers and PRDs to GTM plans, release scopes, and user stories.
• Hold a high bar for ownership, decision-making rigor, product quality, and execution excellence across teams and key partners.

What You Need To Succeed

• Exceptional communication skills, both written and verbal, especially in executive-level and cross-functional settings.
• Bachelor’s Degree (strong preference for candidates with degrees in a technical field)
• Technical fluency to dive deep into system architecture, APIs, data flows, and tradeoff discussions with engineers.
• 8+ years of relevant experience in technology companies, including 5+ years owning and driving products end-to-end as a Product Manager.
• High autonomy, sound judgment, resilience, and ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-stakes environment.
• Known for driving product velocity while upholding high standards of execution excellence, product quality, and risk mitigation.
• Track record of driving measurable outcomes tied to OKRs, shaping product direction, and converting complexity and ambiguity into high-value opportunities.
• Strong analytical skills across metric design and monitoring, funnel analysis, and evidence-based prioritization. Hands-on SQL experience is highly desirable.
• Deep customer empathy and the ability to synthesize qualitative and quantitative insights to build products that truly delight users.

What Sets You Apart:

• Domain experience (where applicable- to be advised on a case-by-case basis).
• Experience building, launching, and scaling fintech products.
• Experience building products from zero-to-one or shaping entirely new product lines.

What You’ll Get

• Culture - We put our people first and prioritise the well-being of every team member. We’ve built a company where all opinions carry weight and where all voices are heard. We value and respect each other and always look out for one another. Above all, we are human.
• Learning - We have a learning and development-focused environment with an emphasis on knowledge sharing, training, and regular internal technical talks.
