Senior AI Product Manager

The Opportunity

Our AI product area is growing. We already have two Product Managers working across conversational AI, agentic workflows, and domain-specific automation, and we need a third to expand our capacity as the scope of AI at 9fin accelerates.

Backed by over $170M in funding (Series C), we are scaling rapidly across product, engineering, and go-to-market. AI is not a bolt-on feature at 9fin; it is the core differentiator for the next phase of the company.

You will join an established AI PM team and take ownership of a product area within our AI surface. This could span new AI-powered features for credit analysts, workflow automation for legal and financial analysis, or expanding our conversational AI into new domains. The team has already built evaluation infrastructure and quality frameworks; you will use and contribute to these rather than build them from scratch.

You will work within our product organization (eight squads across AI, data, and domain verticals) and partner closely with ML engineers, data scientists, domain experts, and designers. This is a high-autonomy role with real scope to shape what 9fin's AI products can do for our clients.

The Opportunity

9fin is already the leading platform for legal intelligence in debt capital markets. Our proprietary AI capabilities extract and analyse legal language at scale, and our unique dataset of credit legal documentation delivers intelligence that generic AI tools simply cannot match.

Now we are investing to extend that leadership. You will lead a dedicated engineering team to define the next chapter of 9fin's legal product — going deeper on AI, building richer workflows, and expanding into the law firm segment, where we see a significant TAM opportunity that is ours to capture.

Your users sit at the centre of the debt markets ecosystem: origination teams at top investment banks, lawyers at leading law firms, and credit analysts at hedge funds and credit funds.

This is a great opportunity to shape the future of a product and a company that's using technology to revolutionise the trillion-dollar debt capital market.

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years of product management experience, preferably in FinTech or B2B SaaS, with at least 2 years focused on ML or GenAI products

• Working knowledge of RAG architectures, embeddings, prompt engineering, and LLM evaluation methods (not just "AI concepts" at a high level)

• Experience shipping AI products where output quality is probabilistic: you know how to define "good enough" and iterate from there

• Comfortable reading Python notebooks and SQL to interrogate model outputs and usage data

• Track record of shipping AI products where you managed the tension between ML research/exploration and production delivery constraints

• Collaborative leadership style with strong stakeholder management; you build relationships that empower your team to achieve outcomes

• User-centric communication skills: you can explain AI capabilities and limitations to clients and internal stakeholders without overselling or underselling

• You thrive in fast-paced, ambiguous environments and are energised by the challenge of building something new

Nice to Have

• Experience in financial services, legal tech, or data/analytics platforms

• Familiarity with credit markets, debt instruments, or regulatory/compliance workflows

• Experience with NLP applied to document analysis (contracts, legal filings, financial reports)

• Experience with agent orchestration frameworks, tool use patterns, or multi-step AI workflows

This role will be a great fit if

• You have a legal or financial markets background, or have built products for this audience. You may have started your career as a lawyer, paralegal, or credit analyst, or you may have been a PM at a legal tech company. You are able to hold a substantive conversation about credit agreements, covenant packages, and how legal language governs capital structures. A sharp PM from an adjacent domain who can demonstrate rapid domain immersion will also be considered.

• You are a strategic thinker who thrives with a blank page. You are comfortable defining strategy from scratch, not just executing an existing roadmap. You can synthesise ambiguous inputs into a clear direction and bring a team with you.

• You're a collaborative leader. You have an empathetic leadership style and build strong, effective relationships. You love working autonomously but are able to earn the trust of others with a collaborative style. You are great at prioritising, not afraid to say no, and excel at managing stakeholders while also being confident in voicing your own opinions and challenging others.

• You've got hands-on experience with AI. You have experience with or a working knowledge of AI and LLMs, including how to evaluate model outputs in production environments. You understand what good looks like when AI is applied to high-stakes, precision-dependent workflows, and you can engage meaningfully with engineering teams on evaluation design and quality standards.

• You work in an AI-native way. You use generative AI tools as a natural part of how you work: prototyping ideas, conducting research, reviewing PRDs, and building agents or automated workflows to extend your own productivity. You are comfortable using coding assistants to get things done faster and are genuinely excited about what this shift means for how product work gets done. This is not a nice-to-have. We expect our PMs to be at the frontier of how AI accelerates product development.

• You thrive building from zero. You are energised by the opportunity to define something new rather than optimise something established. You move quickly, make decisions with incomplete information, and course-correct based on evidence.

Benefits

We’re a scaling start up, and we enjoy sharing our success, when the company succeeds, we always reinvest that in our people. We also offer huge amounts of responsibility, an abundance of opportunity for growth and a platform to truly excel.
