• You will be expected to collaborate with engineering architects and managers, marry the engineering prowess with practical product solutions and work with developers to execute them
• You will be expected to understand technology, not work on it but still be able to comprehend the architecture and microservices involved, which will further help in coming up with the right solutions

• A developer (having worked on new age technologies)  turned product manager with 6+ years of product management experience  will be a good fit for the role, having worked in payments/fintech will be an added advantage
