Senior Product Manager - NIRA

Overview

Senior Product Manager at NIRA, a fintech lender serving India's mass middle market and backed by Tilt, owning the lender and partner side of the platform and the biggest product problems across the borrower journey.

What you'll do

• Set product strategy and the roadmap, turning business goals into clear priorities that move company OKRs and stopping work that isn't paying off.
• Own the lender and partner side of the platform as a product, deciding which lenders and partners NIRA works with based on capacity, pricing, risk appetite and customer fit.
• Make partner onboarding fast and repeatable by building playbooks, tooling and automation across commercial, credit, compliance, tech and operations.
• Work with engineering to standardise integrations so each new integration is faster than the last.
• Make build-vs-buy calls on core platform components such as co-lending and loan management systems, and own the outcome.
• Know the borrower through hands-on research and hard data to choose the problems that matter most.
• Use Claude and other AI tools every day for specs, analysis, vendor research and prototyping.

What you'll need

• Product management experience in fintech, digital lending or B2B platforms, ideally in India.
• Experience integrating with external lenders, partners or APIs, or evaluating platform vendors.
• Experience owning a roadmap tied to company goals and showing the outcomes you moved.
• Quantitative by default: you run your own queries and models and know when the data is too thin to act on.
• Systems thinking: you think in flows and dependencies and know which assumption is most likely to break.
• Commercial and vendor judgement: you can tell a good deal from a convenient one and negotiate for it.
• Strong communication and stakeholder management, including winning over reluctant counterparts and challenging senior leaders.
• Comfort with limited resources: you cut scope to protect what matters and get more done with less.
