Associate Product Manager, Data & AI
Data & AI function | Jersey City, NJ
ROLE SUMMARY
Client: Data and AI function, New Jersey
Location: Jersey City, NJ (four days on-site, one day remote)
Experience: 2-5 years
Work Authorization: Must be authorized to work in the United States without current or future sponsorship
THE ROLE
Our client is building the team that takes AI and data use cases from idea to production across the Americas. This role owns the day-to-day product work for one or two of those use cases, sitting between the business sponsor, the engineering and data teams, and the governance functions that have to sign everything off.
It suits someone two to five years into a product, business analysis, or delivery career who has already contributed to at least one data or AI product in a regulated environment and is ready to own the next one end to end. This is a standalone hire, not a rotational or graduate program: you will be accountable for your use cases from day one.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
- Own the backlog for one or two AI or data use cases: write requirements, user stories, and acceptance criteria; keep the roadmap and release plan current.
- Run use-case intake: capture the business need, size the value, and draft the one-page business case for prioritization.
- Act as the daily interface between the business sponsor and the engineering and data teams; run stand-ups and sprint reviews for your use cases.
- Prepare governance submissions: Responsible AI checklist, model-risk documentation pack, and privacy and security questionnaires, with human-oversight and auditability evidence.
- Define and track adoption and value KPIs; produce the executive status report for your use cases.
- Support vendor and platform evaluations with structured scoring and recommendations.
WHAT WE NEED FROM YOU
- 2-5 years in product management, business analysis, or delivery at a bank, asset manager, consultancy, or fintech, with at least one data or AI product shipped or materially contributed to.
- Can write a user story, an acceptance criterion, and a one-page business case without supervision.
- Working literacy in large language models, retrieval-augmented generation, and agents: able to explain to a sponsor what a model can and cannot do, and why model risk cares.
- Jira or Azure DevOps, Confluence, PowerPoint to executive standard, and enough SQL to pull your own numbers.
- Comfortable in a regulated, four-days-on-site environment and able to manage senior stakeholders directly.
NICE TO HAVE
- Agile or SAFe delivery experience.
- Exposure to a regulated-industry governance process: model risk, SOX/ITGC, or Change Advisory Board.
- Power BI or the wider Microsoft Power Platform.
