Product Owner

Product Owner – Fintech / Forex | Remote-first (South Africa-based)

Ready to play a leading role in shaping products at the forefront of fintech innovation?

This remote-first company is reimagining the way South Africans engage with Forex and Arbitrage services and they’re looking for a smart, resourceful Product Owner to help build best-in-class solutions for their clients.

You’ll join a high-performing, fast-paced team with big ambitions. Think lean processes, autonomy, and impact. If you’re a structured thinker who enjoys the challenge of simplifying complex systems and getting real features out the door quickly, this could be your next move.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll own the full product lifecycle from scoping and MVP definition to rollout and iteration. You’ll collaborate across operations, engineering, and business teams to build holistic, user-focused solutions. You’ll shape intuitive client experiences with a strong eye for UX/UI, and get stuck into the details, mapping out processes, QA’ing new features, and ensuring everything works beautifully. You’ll also analyse and improve existing products constantly, with speed and flexibility.

What we’re looking for

Someone with 2+ years in a Product Owner, Product Manager, or similar role.

A degree in Engineering, Data, or a similar analytical field.

A natural problem-solver who’s comfortable building lean solutions fast.

You should be technical enough to hold your own in conversations with engineers, naturally organised, detail-obsessed, and always thinking a few steps ahead.

Strong communication skills and a knack for cross-functional collaboration are key.

Experience in finance or fintech is a bonus, but not essential.

This is the perfect role for someone who thrives in a startup-style environment-fast-paced, flexible, and full of opportunity.

If you love bringing structure to chaos and building things that work and last, let’s chat.
