Product manager jobs in Dubai, United Arab Emirates

About the role

Product & People Leadership: Build and lead the product organization — hire, mentor, and grow product talent, and establish a culture of high performance, data literacy, and low ego. This is core to the role, not an adjunct to it.

What you'll bring

• Regulated Startup Background: You've built and shipped regulated financial products from zero to one within a fintech, crypto exchange, custodian, or digital banking environment, with proven exposure to compliance frameworks such as VARA, MiCA, EMI, or PI, and to strict licensing processes.
• Comfort with Shifting Landscapes: You thrive in continuous-delivery setups with agile teams, staying resilient and decisive under regulatory, investor, and shifting deadline pressures.
• Agentic Framework Literacy: You have practical understanding of agentic capabilities, architectural pitfalls, and the agentic-deterministic bridge, so deterministic safety holds on the money path.
• Cross-Domain Fluency: You're comfortable across crypto systems, traditional banking, and modern neobank infrastructure, rather than specialized in a single domain.
• Outcome Ownership: You own outcomes end-to-end rather than running a feature factory.
• You commit to measurable results and core OKRs, and you value autonomy while building a collaborative, non-siloed organization.
• Clarity & Conviction: You reduce ambiguity across teams and argue from data with conviction, but disagree and commit when it's time to align the organization.
• Language Skills: You speak and write English at a professional level, to support clean communication across global offices.
• Founder Roots: Prior experience as a founder or early product leader of a regulated fintech startup, building the organization from the ground up.
• Agentic Shipping History: Direct experience bringing a live, agentic-first product to market.
• Augmented Operations: Active daily use of AI agents, personal documentation systems, or a "second brain" to streamline your own operational delivery.
