The posting

Lab49 is an award-winning specialist consultancy that creates bespoke technology in partnership with the most important companies in finance. We were founded in 2002 to bring Silicon Valley solutions to Wall Street’s door. Since then, we have worked on successive waves of technological change, including distributed computing, high-speed automation, enterprise UX and digital distribution (for which Lab49 was among the first significant practices established on Wall Street), DevOps, cloud and data science.

Today, we are an established partner in financial markets, having delivered hundreds of projects for clients including all the world’s tier-one investment banks and many of the largest buy-side firms globally.

Lab49 is seeking a detail-oriented Associate Product Manager to support the development and execution of innovative product solutions for our clients. In this exciting role, you will work closely with cross-functional teams to translate business needs into well-defined product requirements, manage backlogs, and ensure the smooth execution of product delivery roadmaps.

This position is ideal for someone who is an entry-level Product Manager with 2-5 years of experience who is ready to take on more ownership while gaining exposure to client interaction and growth initiatives in an agile, fast-paced environment.

Responsibilities:

  • Own the backlog—write, refine, and prioritize user stories with clear acceptance criteria.
  • Collaborate with engineering, UX, and business teams to ensure alignment on feature development and technical feasibility.
  • Work closely with developers and QA to clarify requirements, troubleshoot issues, and validate feature completion.
  • Assist in defining and executing the product roadmap, ensuring alignment with business objectives.
  • Conduct competitive analysis and user research to inform product decisions and prioritization.
  • Support sprint planning, backlog grooming, and other agile ceremonies to maintain development momentum.
  • Define and track key product performance metrics, using data to drive continuous improvements.
  • Eager to take on a variety of responsibilities beyond core delivery, including contributing to product governance and driving continuous improvement through enhanced processes, tools, and reporting.
  • Support client engagements by identifying opportunities to expand product scope or propose follow-on work, collaborating with senior product managers and delivery leads.
  • Help prepare materials for client or internal showcases, including case studies, user feedback summaries, or product previews to demonstrate value and progress.

Requirements:

  • 2-5 years of experience in product management or a related role (business analyst, product owner, etc.).
  • Strong experience writing user stories, acceptance criteria, and defining “done” for development teams.
  • Familiarity with agile methodologies, including sprint planning, backlog management, and iterative development.
  • Hands-on experience with JIRA, Confluence, or similar product management tools.
  • Ability to collaborate with engineers, UX designers, and stakeholders to balance business needs with technical feasibility.
  • Strong analytical mindset—comfortable using data to inform decisions and drive improvements.
  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to articulate complex ideas to both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Analytical mindset with the ability to use data to drive product decisions and improve performance.
  • Hands-on experience leveraging AI-powered tools to enhance product discovery, requirements definition, backlog management, and team productivity

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience working on enterprise-level software or fintech products.
  • Exposure to API-driven development and technical product considerations.
  • Experience with data-driven decision-making.
  • Familiarity with the consulting environment—comfortable working in client-facing roles and contributing to account growth.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
