Role Summary

PANTA is looking for a Product Manager to take real ownership across our next-generation Index Operating System, working hand-in-hand with the Head of Product to shape and ship the platform.

This is one of our first dedicated product hires — you'll own product areas end-to-end, from discovery through to live, client-facing functionality, and act as a credible product voice in front of sophisticated institutional clients.

It suits someone a few years into product (or moving into product from a markets, quant, or investment background) who wants the scope and ownership of an early-stage company building institutional-grade fintech from the ground up.

Company Overview

PANTA is revolutionizing the $25 trillion index investing landscape through our innovative Index Operating System. Founded by index industry veterans, we're bringing modern Index technology infrastructure to an industry ripe for transformation. Our platform enables index providers, asset managers, banks and financial institutions to create, test, and manage indices with unprecedented efficiency and flexibility.

Key Responsibilities

1. Discovery and definition for core areas of the platform — translating the real workflows of index providers, asset managers, and banks into clear requirements and specs.
2. Features from concept to production, partnering directly with engineering and owning quality and outcomes.
3. Client trials and proofs of concept end-to-end including scoping, building demo environments, running walkthroughs, and turning feedback into product decisions.
4. Trusted product contact for strategic partners and early clients, holding your own with quant, risk, and portfolio teams.
5. Roadmap direction alongside the Head of Product, including how we apply AI to index methodology and construction.

What we're looking for

1. A few years in product (as a PM, or equivalent experience bringing technical or financial products to market), with hands-on experience shipping software users depend on.
2. Fluency in — or a fast-developing appetite for — capital markets, indexing, asset management, or financial data, enough to hold your own with sophisticated buyers.
3. A track record of running discovery and turning ambiguous client needs into shipped product.
4. Excellent written communication, structured thinking, and comfort working directly with institutional clients.
5. Highly organised, proactive, and high-ownership — someone who thrives at startup pace.

What We Offer

1. A high-ownership role working directly with the Head of Product and founders at an early-stage fintech
2. Hands-on exposure to building a category-defining platform in index infrastructure
3. Rapid learning across product strategy, execution, and institutional client delivery
4. Competitive compensation with meaningful equity participation
5. Clear path to senior product leadership as we scale
