Trillions of dollars flow through private equity, venture capital, private credit, and real assets, yet the software managing this capital often lags a decade behind. SimCorp is changing that.\nWe're a fast-growing fintech company on a mission to modernize the private market ecosystem for institutional investors with cross-asset portfolios. We're scaling fast, our customers are the best in the world, and we're looking for a world-class Product Manager to help us build what comes next.\nIf you understand the nuances of Private Markets, have a deep empathy for the professionals navigating this space, and know how to turn complexity into elegant software, we need to talk.\nWHY THIS ROLE IS IMPORTANT TO US\nAs a key component of product management for Private Markets, you will own the product strategy and execution alongside our engineering team. You will sit at the intersection of finance and technology translating the intricate workflows of private market professionals into intuitive, powerful software that delights users and drives business outcomes.\nThis is a high-visibility, high-impact role. You'll work directly with the leadership, clients, market participants, engineering, sales and go-to-market teams, and you'll have real ownership over a product area that is central to our company's growth. You will shape the roadmap, define priorities, and rally a talented team of engineers and designers around a shared vision.\nWHAT YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR\nOrchestrate high-stakes product demonstrations, executive roundtables, and client conferences to evangelize the solution and secure stakeholder buy-in across diverse audiences.\n\nDefine, own and evolve the product roadmap for our private markets platform, balancing short-term customer needs with long-term strategic vision.\n\nBe the primary point of contact, the go-to person for private markets and collaborate closely with internal and external stakeholders.\n\nStrategically own, manage and prioritize the product backlog in lockstep with Leadership, balancing technical debt with high-value strategic investments to ensure seamless delivery.\n\nDeeply immerse yourself in the workflows of private markets - conducting interviews, shadowing users, and synthesizing feedback into actionable insights.\n\nWrite crisp, well-reasoned product specifications and work hand-in-hand with engineering and design to ship high-quality features on time.\n\nCollaborate with cross-functional teams to author comprehensive user features and stories, establishing rigorous acceptance criteria to ensure all deliverables meet 'Definition of Ready' and 'Definition of Done' standards in the acceptance of deliverables.\n\nDefine success metrics for every initiative and use data to evaluate outcomes, iterate quickly, and communicate results to stakeholders.\n\nPartner with Sales and Customer Success to understand market gaps, competitive dynamics, and the evolving needs of our customer base.\n\nIdentify and evaluate opportunities to integrate AI and automation into core workflows - making complex workflows faster, smarter, and more reliable.\n\nDrive alignment across cross-functional teams, ensuring clarity on priorities, tradeoffs, and the 'why' behind every decision.\n\nStay ahead of regulatory developments, market trends, and competitive shifts in the private markets technology landscape.\n\nRepresent the voice of the customer in every product decision - advocating relentlessly for user experience without sacrificing business viability.\n\nWho You Are\nYou're not just a product manager, you're a private market expert who happens to love building software. You've spent time in or around private markets and you feel the pain points firsthand. You're the kind of person who gets genuinely excited when you see a workflow for the first time and immediately start mentally redesigning it. You are rigorous in your thinking, persuasive in your communication, and relentless in your follow-through.\nYou thrive in ambiguity. You can take a messy problem, break it down into its component parts, and build consensus around a path forward without needing every answer handed to you. You care about craft: a half-built feature or a confusing UX genuinely bothers you. And you're a collaborator at heart, you know that great products are built by great teams, and you know how to bring out the best in the people around you.\nWHAT WE VALUE\n5+ years product management experience, with at least 2 years in B2B SaaS or fintech.\n\nMeaningful exposure to private markets, whether through prior work at a PE firm, fund administrator, placement agent, LP, or financial software company serving these markets.\n\nDemonstrated track record of successfully launching products and features that users love and that drive measurable business results.\n\nStrong understanding of private asset structures, capital calls, distributions, investor reporting, and related workflows.\n\nExceptional written and verbal communication skills - you can write a tight one-pager and present to a room of skeptical executives with equal confidence and are not afraid to use AI.\n\nProficiency in working with data: you're comfortable analyzing usage metrics and building dashboards to support your decisions.\n\nExperience collaborating with engineering teams in an agile environment; familiarity with modern development practices is a plus.\n\nHigh EQ and the ability to build trust quickly with customers, engineers, and senior leadership alike.\n\nA genuine curiosity about technology and its role in reshaping financial services.\n\nExperience engaging proactively with clients and stakeholders to solicit input for user stories.\n\nBroad knowledge of the Alternative Investment marketplace and system vendors.\n\nExperience with SimCorp Dimension® (advantageous but not required).\n\nProven track record in roles such as Product Manager, Product Owner, Engineering, Business Analyst, Project Manager, or Consultant within software development.\n\nStrategic mindset with strong analytical skills focused on business outcomes and complete product offers.\n\nAbility to encourage, motivate, and influence teams and peers; contribute to improvements across the community.\n\nUnderstanding of how great products are built and deliver value to clients.\n\nCreative and inquisitive mindset with the ability to simplify complex concepts.\n\nDegree in Computer Science, Economics, Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, Finance, or a related field (preferred).\n\nWhy Join Us\nMeaningful ownership - your decisions will shape a platform used by some of the world’s most sophisticated investors, and your work will have visible, lasting impact.\n\nA culture built on trust, autonomy, and deep collaboration.\n\nA leadership team with deep domain expertise, proven execution experience, and a genuine commitment to building an exceptional, humancentered culture.\n\nThe opportunity to build category defining technology in a space undergoing massive transformation where your influence won’t just move the product forward, it will help reshape an entire industry.\n\nA place where craft matters, ideas win on merit, and people are encouraged to think boldly, act decisively, and do the best work of their careers.\n\nNEXT STEPS\nPlease send us your application in English via our career site as soon as possible, we process incoming applications continually.
