Operating at the strategic epicenter of our product lifecycle, you will step up to claim true individual strategic and operational accountability for directing multiple initiatives and cross-cutting capabilities across Sift’s extensive portfolio.

• Meticulous Specification Engineering: Author clear, exceptionally detailed product specifications, creating tracking tickets, drafting clear micro-copy strings, mapping edge cases, and defining rigid feature acceptance criteria natively leveraging Project Management paradigms.
• Frictionless GTM Realignment: Partner hand-in-hand with distributed Sales, Product Marketing, and Customer Success pods to ensure new risk mitigation features are positioned accurately, supporting live deal cycles and authoring enablement collateral.
• Cross-Discipline Team Inspiration: Rally diverse groups of software developers, machine learning data scientists, and UX designers around a shared product vision, translating complex business constraints into highly actionable product keys.
• Portfolio-Level Company Strategy Contribution: Evaluate emerging threat vectors and financial payment trends, tracking competitor footprints to help identify new market opportunities and steer Sift’s long-term corporate product direction.

Required Skills & Qualifications

• A minimum of 5 years of verified professional history running advanced software Product Management, enterprise SaaS lifecycle mapping, technical systems direction, digital risk analytics governance, or technical product consulting.
• Enterprise SaaS Vertical Domain Background: Documented, hands-on career history successfully shipping product features within the fraud prevention, trust and safety, identity verification, financial technology, or payment security domains.
• Expert-tier capability converting abstract user feedback, conducting user discovery interviews, and drafting tight product requirements documents natively utilizing Research frameworks.
• Practical operational familiarity organizing cross-functional release milestones, mapping task dependencies, and coordinating launch timelines natively using Project Management agile playbooks.
• Deep analytical fluency, demonstrating a proven history utilizing complex data monitoring setups and telemetry dashboards to independently back up prioritization choices.
• Outstanding verbal, written, and document presentation communication traits in business-fluent English, enabling total clarity when presenting high-level portfolio strategies before executive steering boards.
