Senior Product Manager, Watchlist

## ABOUT THE ROLE

We are looking for a Senior Product Manager to own Socure's Watchlist screening and monitoring platform — a foundational product in our compliance suite serving a rapidly growing customer base.

You will own the roadmap and strategy for our market-leading Watchlist Screening and Monitoring product, which enables banks, fintechs, gaming companies, and more around the world manage their sanctions and AML risk.

You will work closely with Data Science, Engineering, and go-to-market teams to build a market leading product and drive growth.

This is a high-ownership, externally-facing role requiring strong product judgment, AML domain curiosity, and the ability to operate across complex partner and customer relationships.

## WHAT YOU'LL DO

Product Strategy & Roadmap

- Own the Watchlist product roadmap, balancing compliance accuracy, customer needs, and engineering capacity.
- Translate market trends, regulatory changes, and customer feedback into product priorities and requirements.
- Define and track key product metrics: screening accuracy, false positive rates, match coverage, and customer outcomes.

Screening, Monitoring & AI Development

- Drive improvements to Watchlist's core individual screening and monitoring capabilities, including name match accuracy and data coverage.
- Work with Engineering to evolve the platform's scalability, reliability, and integration with Socure's broader product suite.
- Work with data science to build our next generation data ingestion technology to improve the accuracy of our watchlist data.
- Develop and maintain machine learning systems that keep our patented real-time matching engine at the highest levels of recall and precision.

Cross-Functional Leadership

- Collaborate with Engineering, Data Science, and Compliance Ops to translate requirements into executable plans.
- Partner with Sales, Customer Success, and GTM to support deal cycles and retain and grow Watchlist's enterprise customer base.
- Represent product externally with compliance buyers, at industry events, and in customer conversations.

Data & Performance Analysis

- Use SQL and analytics to evaluate product performance and derive insights that shape prioritization.
- Conduct competitive analysis and deep dives on emerging compliance requirements and market opportunities.

## WHAT YOU BRING

- Experience: 3–5 years in product management, preferably in compliance technology, AML/sanctions screening, identity verification, or ML-driven products.
- Domain Knowledge: Familiarity with AML/BSA regulations, sanctions screening workflows, or financial crime compliance is strongly preferred.
- Technical Expertise: Strong understanding of APIs, data pipelines, and ML model behavior; comfortable reviewing technical specs and writing SQL.
- Analytical Skills: Ability to evaluate screening performance metrics (recall, precision, hit rate) and translate them into product decisions.
- Customer Focus: Experience working directly with compliance buyers, financial institutions, or enterprise customers in complex environments.
- Communication: Ability to explain technical or compliance concepts clearly to engineering partners, compliance buyers, and executive stakeholders.
- Collaboration: Proven ability to work cross-functionally with Engineering, Data Science, and go-to-market teams in a fast-paced environment.

You must be located in one of our talent hubs: New York, San Francisco, Seattle, or Miami.
