Private Markets – Product Manager

Private markets are being transformed — and you could be at the center of it.

The gap between institutional   grade private market tools and the technology that powers them has never been bigger. Trillions of dollars flow through private equity, venture capital, private credit, and real assets ,   yet the software managing this capital often lags a decade behind.   SimCorp   is   changing that.

We're   a fast-growing fintech   company   on a mission to modernize the private market ecosystem   for institutional investors with cross-asset portfolios.   We're   scaling fast, our customers   are the best in the world , and   we're   looking for a world-class Product Manager to help us build what comes next.

If you understand the nuances of   Private Markets , have   a deep   empathy for the professionals navigating this space, and know how to turn complexity into elegant software ,   we need to talk.

WHY THIS ROLE IS IMPORTANT TO US

As   a key   component   of p roduct   management   for Private Markets, you will own the product strategy and   execution alongside our engineering team . You will sit at the intersection of finance and technolog y   translating the intricate workflows of private market professionals into intuitive, powerful software that delights users and drives business outcomes.

This is a high-visibility, high-impact role.   You'll   work directly with   the leadership, clients, market participants,   e ngineering,   sales   and go-to-market teams, and   you'll   have real ownership over a product area that is central to our company's growth. You will shape the roadmap, define priorities, and rally a talented team of engineers and designers around a shared vision.

Who You Are

You're   not just a product   manager ,   you're   a   private market   expert who happens to love building software.   You've   spent time in or around private   markets   and you feel the pain points firsthand.   You're   the kind of person who gets genuinely excited when you see a workflow for the first time and   immediately   start mentally redesigning it. You are rigorous in your thinking, persuasive in your communication, and relentless in your follow-through.

You thrive in ambiguity. You can take a messy problem, break it down into its   component   parts, and build consensus around a path forward   without needing every answer handed to you. You care about craft: a half-built feature or a confusing U X   genuinely bothers you. And   you're   a collaborator at heart ,   you know that great products are built by great teams, and you know how to bring out the best in the people around you.
