About the Role

We're looking for a Product Manager who will operate in true founder-mode — owning the infrastructure and compliance layers that makes Kira's platform trustworthy and scalable: Virtual US Bank Accounts, KYB/KYC onboarding, and transaction monitoring (KYT).

This role leads product at the intersection of engineering, compliance, and AI. You'll define and ship the systems that get clients onboarded faster, keep transactions clean, and replace manual compliance workflows with intelligent, autonomous agents — so our team can focus on judgment calls, not repetitive reviews.

In this role, you'll:

You’ll act like a Product Manager partnership-driven and execution‑obsessed:

Virtual USD Bank Account infrastructure: Own the product definition for how clients provision, manage, and operate virtual accounts on Kira's platform — including account lifecycle, balance management, subaccount structures, and banking partner constraints.
Compliance onboarding (KYB/KYC): Design and continuously improve the end-to-end onboarding experience for business clients. This means defining the data collection flows, document verification steps, risk tiering logic, and approval workflows that get legitimate clients live — fast — while meeting our banking partners' requirements.
Transaction monitoring (KYT): Own the product layer above our KYT engine. Define the rules, thresholds, alert workflows, and case management experience that our compliance team uses daily. You'll work closely with compliance analysts to understand where the system creates noise versus signal — and close that gap.
