Senior Product Manager , (Core Banking / AI) - Relocation to Croatia

Oradian is building an AI-powered core banking platform used by financial institutions across emerging markets. Our customers collectively serve more than 25 million end customers, with our platform powering lending, deposits, payments and other critical financial services. We are looking for a Senior Product Manager to own meaningful parts of the banking core, starting with lending and accounting, and to shape the AI-powered tools that allow customers to extend it.

This role suits a strong product manager who knows financial products well, ideally lending, deposits or accounting, enjoys ownership over process, is comfortable with technical complexity and ambiguity, and wants to shape how AI and core banking come together in a fast-moving scale-up.

🎯 What You Will Own

The banking core

The core covers lending, deposits, payments, accounting and reporting. Domains are split across our product managers, and this role starts with lending and accounting, where most of our roadmap currently sits. Within your domain you will:

• Define which banking products the platform supports natively, including loan schedules, interest and fee calculation, repayments, arrears, restructuring, write-off and recovery
• Own how these events post to the general ledger, including accruals, reversals, reconciliation and reporting
• Own the boundary between standard product, configuration and customer-built extension
• Be accountable for the roadmap and for the commercial commitments attached to it

The AI agents

Banks always need something the standard product does not do. Our answer is an extensibility layer where customer-specific logic runs inside the platform, and an AI coding agent that writes that logic and generates the automated tests. You will use the agent to build customisations in your domain and help shape its roadmap, feeding what you learn from real customer needs back into how it evolves.

The two areas reinforce each other, which is why they belong together: the core defines what customers can change, and the agents are how they change it.

🧠 What We Are Looking For

Required:

• Five or more years in product management, including experience in fintech or financial services on complex B2B SaaS products.
• Strong product sense. You have owned a product area end to end, framed the problems worth solving, made the trade-offs and can point to measurable business results, with numbers.
• Hands-on AI experience. You have built something with AI tools, such as a prototype, a workflow or an internal tool, and can walk us through it. It does not need to be best in class, but it needs to be real.
• Technical depth. You are comfortable with APIs, data models and integrations, and interested in how customers extend a platform through configuration and code.
• Clear, structured written and verbal English, and comfort with high autonomy in a scale-up where process is light.

Strongly Preferred:

• Experience owning a lending, deposits or accounting product in core banking or lending software: the product itself, not only the onboarding, KYC or customer journeys around it. We weigh this as highly as product sense. Exceptional product managers whose fintech experience is in other areas are also encouraged to apply.

Nice To Haves:

• Experience with platforms that customers extend through APIs, plugins or scripting.
• A technical background in engineering, data or computer science, or equivalent self-taught depth.
• Experience with microfinance, SME lending or emerging markets.

🧩 How we work

We believe product management is rapidly evolving with AI-assisted development. Product Managers at Oradian are expected to actively use modern AI tools to accelerate discovery, prototyping, documentation, workflow design and internal product exploration. This does not replace engineering depth, but it does increase the level of ownership and execution expected from product teams.

🌍 Location & Travel

• Remote in the EU or supported relocation to Croatia .
• A few planned trips per year to our Zagreb office.
• Customer travel as needed, based on business priorities, primarily Asia and Africa.

🚀 Why This Role

• Full-cycle product ownership, from ideation through delivery to customer adoption, not a PM proxy role
• A fast-growing environment where product managers have clear ownership and the space to execute
• Direct exposure to customers, markets and executive-level decision-making
• Work on products that run critical financial operations at scale
• Opportunity to work at the intersection of fintech, AI-assisted product development and modern API-first banking infrastructure
