Junior Product Analyst (FinTech & Platform)

The Opportunity

We’re looking for a Junior Product Analyst (FinTech & Platform) to take real ownership of product initiatives and help drive delivery across multiple product areas. This contract-to-hire role is ideal for someone early in their product journey who brings energy, curiosity, and strong follow-through, and is eager to build product skills quickly. You’ll collaborate closely with product leadership, engineering, design, and customer-facing teams to identify and validate customer needs, turn messy inputs into clear requirements, support engineering execution through strong documentation and iteration, and help deliver meaningful features and improvements in a distributed, global team environment, while being accountable for outcomes, not just attending meetings.

What You’ll Do

Drive Requirements & Execution with Engineering (Accountability Focus)

  • Own the definition of requirements for product improvements — including user stories,
acceptance criteria, and edge cases
  • Work directly with engineering to clarify requirements, answer questions, and unblock
delivery
  • Create clear product documentation to support development (PRDs, briefs, workflows,
user stories)
  • Ensure the team stays aligned on scope, tradeoffs, and what “done” looks like
  • Track execution progress, flag risks early, and drive tasks to completion

Customer & Market Discovery

  • Join customer calls and interviews to understand workflows and pain points
  • Research competitors and industry trends to identify opportunities and differentiation
  • Synthesize insights into clear product recommendations and opportunity briefs
  • Partner with Customer Success, Support, and Sales to translate feedback into action

Support Product Delivery & Quality

  • Assist with testing (QA), validation, and rollout readiness
  • Help identify risks early (compliance, workflow, usability, edge cases)
  • Coordinate cross-functional input so features land smoothly and correctly
  • Work with the team to ensure new features deliver real value and adoption

Data + Feedback → Continuous Improvement

  • Track customer feedback, usage patterns, and support ticket trends
  • Help define success metrics (adoption, drop-off points, customer outcomes)
  • Identify friction points and propose improvements backed by evidence

Launch & Enablement

  • Support feature rollouts with release notes, internal enablement, and customer messaging
  • Help ensure internal teams understand what’s changing and how to support customers
  • Gather post-launch feedback and recommend improvements

What You’re Likely to Work On

This role can touch multiple areas depending on priorities, including:

  • FinTech experiences (payments, gamification, compliance workflows, financial operations)
  • Workforce workflows (HR products, employee engagement and management)
  • Reporting, dashboards, and insights
  • AI-driven experiences and automation
  • Customer onboarding and product adoption improvements

What We’re Looking For

You’ll Do Well If You Are:

  • Highly organized with strong follow-through (you track progress and close loops)
  • Comfortable working with engineering teams and pushing for clarity
  • Able to write clear product requirements and documentation
  • Proactive and not afraid to ask questions or surface issues early
  • Excited to work across time zones with globally distributed teams
  • Customer-oriented and willing to do discovery directly with users, product training and
validation
  • Analytical — you can turn messy inputs into structured insights

Experience That Helps (not all required):

  • 0–2 years in product, operations, consulting, analytics, customer success, fintech, or SaaS
  • Familiarity with Jira, Confluence, Figma, Google Sheets
  • Strong communication and writing skills (clear docs, summaries, requirements)
  • Bonus: SQL, analytics tools, payments/compliance exposure, or startup experience
