Product Manager, VP – Business Finance Technology

About the role

This role is responsible for leading and executing product and project workstreams across a varied set of stakeholders, with a strong emphasis on engineering-aligned solution delivery. You will partner closely with Finance and Operations teams across the firm—including Real Estate and Private Equity—to design and implement scalable, code-driven solutions that automate complex business processes and calculation models. The ideal candidate sits at the intersection of product, business analysis, and engineering—either an engineer transitioning into product/business roles or a product manager/business analyst with strong technical fluency. All projects are prioritized and selected to achieve measurable operational efficiencies and contribute to stakeholders’ technology strategy.

Responsibilities

• Translate business needs into clear, structured technical requirements, including data models, logic flows, and system interactions
• Partner closely with engineering teams to design scalable, maintainable solutions using modern programming languages and architectures
• Identify and drive opportunities to re-platform or modernize legacy solutions into modern code-based implementations
• Design, build, and implement solutions leveraging the most appropriate technologies (e.g., Python, SQL, cloud-based services)
• Contribute to solution architecture discussions, including trade-offs across performance, scalability, and maintainability
• Manage project delivery—define milestones, track progress, and provide clear updates to stakeholders
• Lead user acceptance testing (UAT) with a focus on validating logic, data integrity, and system behavior
• Oversee data migration, reconciliation, and validation, ensuring accuracy and auditability of outputs
• Collaborate with offshore and affiliate teams with an emphasis on clear technical communication and alignment
• Serve as a technical-functional bridge, supporting end users while guiding adoption of more robust, engineering-driven solutions
• Promote and establish best practices in system design, data management, and process automation

Qualifications

• 7+ years of experience in product management, business analysis, or software engineering, preferably in a hybrid or highly technical role
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Finance, Engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics, or related field
• Prior experience in real estate or private equity along with knowledge of performance calculations, deal life cycle, forecasting, and investor reporting
• Demonstrated experience working closely with engineering teams and translating business requirements into implementable technical specifications
• Strong working knowledge of programming and data manipulation (e.g., Python, SQL APIs, data pipelines, or backend logic preferred)
• Experience designing or contributing to code-based solutions (beyond configuration-driven tools)
• Familiarity with software development concepts: version control, testing, modular design, and deployment practices
• Experience with modern data/BI tools (e.g., Tableau, Power BI, Sigma) with an understanding of underlying data structures
• Exposure to cloud platforms or modern data architectures is a plus
• Experience operating as a hands-on individual contributor while influencing technical direction
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and decision-making skills with comfort operating in complex environments
• Excellent communication skills, with experience bridging business and technical audiences effectively
• Experience summarizing complex concepts succinctly for senior stakeholders
• Comfortable working in a global, cross-functional team environment
