We're looking for a Product Manager to shape how Wise builds and uses data 'll build platform capabilities that make data feel like a great product: easy to find, easy to trust, and safe to use across engineering, product, analytics, risk, privacy and operations.

You'll own product work that replaces siloed knowledge and manual processes with clear, self-serve workflows. That means helping teams understand what data exists, who owns it, how it's produced, what it can be used for, and how to get access. You'll build tooling that supports data classification, permitted usage, and retention and deletion requirements as part of everyday work - not as extra process.

The outcome is simple: teams spend less time chasing definitions, debugging numbers, or searching for the "right table," and more time shipping. You'll also help lay the foundations that make Wise's data ready for AI, enabling smarter internal tools and safer customer experiences.

This is a hands‑on role with close collaboration across engineering and partner teams. You'll learn quickly, ship practical improvements, and directly influence how data is found, understood and used across Wise.

We're building a team that reflects the customers we serve, and we value diverse backgrounds and paths into product. If you're excited by the problem and can learn quickly, we'd love to hear from you - even if you don't meet every requirement. We're looking for curiosity, sound judgement, and a collaborative mindset.

As a PM in Platform, you will be responsible for the product impact of key parts of our data productivity and governance platform. This is the trust and navigation layer that helps teams move quickly, while keeping data secure and compliant by default.

• Improve discovery with strong metadata, clear ownership, and simple trust signals.
• Help teams quickly answer everyday questions:
  What is this data? Can I trust it? Where did it come from? Who owns it?

• Build low‑friction workflows such as secure, auditable, and usable access requests.
• Translate privacy, security, and regulatory requirements into practical tooling so teams can do the right thing by default.

• Build foundations like high‑quality metadata, lineage, classification, and reliability signals.
• Scale through automation, including automated classification and durable documentation.

• Lead capabilities from discovery and design through delivery and adoption.
• Partner with engineers and architects to scope work, make trade‑offs, and measure impact across reliability, scalability, efficiency, and performance.

• Run pilots, onboard teams, gather feedback, and iterate quickly.
• Track outcomes such as adoption, asset ownership and tagging, time to access, and fewer incidents caused by unclear definitions or unknown lineage.

We are looking for someone who is curious, structured, and motivated by making complex systems feel simple.

• 2 to 4 years' experience in product, technical programme, analyst, or adjacent roles, ideally in data, platform or security related products.
• Experience shipping product work end to end, from problem discovery to delivery and adoption.
• Comfort writing clear user stories, acceptance criteria and lightweight roadmaps, with the ability to break down ambiguity into practical steps.
• You are comfortable operating in a federated ownership model, where teams own their own data and systems. You can influence without authority and build alignment across multiple stakeholders.
• You can discuss APIs, metadata, data storage concepts, and basic lineage and trust…
