  • Act as the central point of contact for internal and external stakeholders, including vendors and system partners.
 
Requirements:
  • 4+ years of experience in product management, project delivery, or implementation within a banking or fintech environment.
  • Working knowledge of Islamic banking concepts (e.g., Wadiah, Tawarruq, Mudarabah) and BNM’s Islamic Banking related Policy Documents.
  • Strong understanding of core banking systems and how Islamic banking products are structured, configured, and operationalized within them.
  • Strong project and stakeholder management capabilities - able to manage complex dependencies and drive clarity.
  • Experience working across cross-functional teams, including engineering, compliance, operations, and legal.
