Solidly established Global FinTech is looking for an experienced, highly motivated and entrepreneurial individual to join its newly formed Private Equity Division as a Product Engineer. In this role, you will work at the intersection of product strategy and technical execution, building and scaling the firm’s internal technology platform and integrating mission critical technology applications for its portfolio companies, with a focus on AI-driven tools. This role combines product thinking with hands-on technical expertise, requiring the ability to both define and build solutions. The position offers the opportunity to collaborate with a creative, innovative team at the intersection of technology and investment management, and as an early team member, help shape the group’s technology direction.

We work in a hybrid model where you are in the office Tuesday through Thursday with the option to work from home on Monday and Friday.

SKILLS AND REQUIREMENTS

  • Bachelor’s Degree or Higher required.
  • Two to Five (2-5) years of Experience required.
  • At least Two (2) years of Experience Developing Technology Products in direct collaboration with Engineering Teams, including at least One (1) year Focused on Workflow Products that Streamline Business Operations and Processes.
  • At least One (1) year of Experience Developing and Integrating LLM-powered Systems into production applications, with knowledge of agentic frameworks and their practical implementation; demonstrated ability to translate AI capabilities (including autonomous agents, tool use, and multi-step reasoning) into practical product features that solve real-world problems.
  • Experience successfully taking a product from conception to completion, ideally in a startup environment; prior experience developing products for vertical-specific or industry-focused applications is a plus.
  • Strong technical foundation in full-stack product development spanning APIs, databases, and user interfaces with the ability to read and execute code, and proficiency in overseeing technical aspects from architecture decisions to implementation details.
  • Well-developed communication skills, a collaborative and entrepreneurial mindset, and the ability to successfully manage multiple projects at once.

RESPONSIBILITIES AND DUTIES

  • You will be involved in all aspects of building and scaling technology products for the fund’s investment activities, including:
  • Work closely with the investment and operations teams to uncover high-impact opportunities, brainstorm product ideas, and turn their feedback into a clear product direction.
  • Own product design and shape how each tool is structured, from defining how data is organized and connected to mapping the key business flows that determine how the tool works, ensuring conceptual and technical clarity in each iteration.
  • Experiment, design, and develop products that use LLMs and GAI to streamline how investment teams work, ensuring AI integrates smoothly into daily operations and understanding how model behavior affects the user experience.
  • Guide technical delivery from initial prototype to stable production release, occasionally contributing code directly, especially early in the product lifecycle or during proofs of concept when business and product input are most critical.
