Ripjar was founded by veterans of GCHQ to bring national security-grade intelligence tools to the fight against financial crime. Financial crime funds human trafficking, terrorism, corruption and sanctions evasion on a global scale, and the organisations on the front line need technology built to match the threat.
Today, Ripjar's AI-native software and data fusion products are used by governments, the world's largest banks, and global enterprises to automate the detection, investigation and monitoring of serious financial crime. Every day, hundreds of customers and thousands of daily active users rely on the platform to screen hundreds of millions of names for risk in real time, prevent money laundering and stop terrorist financing.
If you want your work to matter, this is where it happens.
We are a remote first team, with a head office based in Cheltenham. This position is open to UK wide candidates. If you are based near Cheltenham, you are more than welcome to work from our office at any time.
The role:
We are looking for a motivated, curious, and enthusiastic Product Manager to join our growing product team. This is not a role where we expect you to have seen it all before or be an expert in every discipline. We believe great product instincts combined with the right attitude will take you far, and this role is designed to be a launchpad for your career.
Product management at Ripjar is beautifully varied, and we want you to find your own strengths. While you will get a solid grounding in the entire product lifecycle, you will have the flexibility to lean into the areas that excite you most as you develop:
- The Tech and Delivery Side: Partnering closely with world-class engineers and architects to build cutting-edge systems.
- The Commercial and Marketing Side: Shaping product strategy, exploring pricing models, and helping position our products in the global market.
- The Operational Side: Working on how our complex AI systems are deployed and implemented effectively for our clients.
Bring Your Ideas to Shape How the World Fights Financial Crime with AI
AI is at the heart of what we do. We don't just want you to manage a roadmap; we want you to bring your own creativity and ideas to the table. You will help us think about how we can leverage the next generation of AI tools and processes to make a meaningful difference. If you are fascinated by the fast-moving world of artificial intelligence and want to apply it to real-world challenges, you will thrive here.
What you'll be doing:
- Lead and Shape Initiatives: Be responsible for key product features from concept through to launch, working alongside UX designers, engineers, and QA specialists.
- Listen and Learn: Engage directly with our customers and internal teams to deeply understand user needs and domain challenges.
- Build Momentum: Act as an Agile product owner by writing user stories, collaborating team ceremonies, and helping the team deliver.
- Experiment with Strategy: Contribute fresh ideas to our product development, marketing strategies, and pricing approaches.
Requirements
What we're looking for:
We are keeping things simple. We aren't looking for a long list of certificates; we are looking for potential, adaptability, and commitment.
- Some Product Experience: You have a solid grounding in product management principles, perhaps as an Associate PM, Product Analyst, or a closely related role in a fast-moving tech environment.
- B2B or SaaS Exposure: You have some familiarity with how enterprise software or SaaS products are built and delivered.
- Curiosity Around AI: You don't need a degree in data science, but you should be genuinely excited by AI technology and eager to explore how it can solve complex problems.
- Strong Communication: You know how to collaborate cross-functionally, listen to different perspectives, and build trust with a team.
- Bonus Points: Any exposure to financial services, compliance, or RegTech is a great plus, but absolutely not a requirement.

- Competitive base salary DOE
- 25 days annual leave + birthdays off, rising to 30 days after 5 years of service
- Christmas shutdown
- Fully remote working
- 35 hour working week
