Lead and manage the product development for a global digital identity platform focusing on privacy-first verification technology.

Responsibilities

  • At Hopae, Product Managers sit at the heart of everything we build. You'll work closely with engineering, design, research, and business teams to shape products that define how the world verifies identity — at scale, across borders, and without compromise.
  • We're hiring PMs across Hopae.
  • hConnect — our core API product that lets businesses verify real people across borders through a single integration. PMs here own the developer-facing product experience, shape how enterprises and IDV providers connect to global eID systems, and drive adoption across fintech, credentials, supply chain, and gaming verticals.
  • Research — our frontier team pushing the boundaries of digital identity. The current focus is building a hardware-based, in-person identification solution — a genuinely hard, genuinely new problem at the intersection of physical and digital trust. PMs here work in a more exploratory, zero-to-one environment.
  • Across both teams, you will:
  • Own your product area end-to-end — from discovery and roadmap to launch and iteration
  • Translate complex regulatory, technical, and user requirements into clear, shippable specs
  • Define success metrics and hold yourself accountable to them
  • Work closely with engineers, designers, and legal/compliance to ship features that are both technically sound and commercially meaningful
  • Partner with Sales and Business Development to understand what customers need — and what the market is ready for
  • Communicate priorities clearly and push back when needed — you are the decision-maker for your surface area
  • Represent the voice of the customer internally, and the voice of the product externally

Requirements

  • You've shipped real products, own your decisions, and thrive without a playbook. You think in first principles, communicate with precision across time zones, and are genuinely excited about the future of digital identity.
  • You have a B2B SaaS background, can hold your own in a technical conversation, and understand how product decisions move deals.
  • You're comfortable in 0→1 territory — hardware meets software, experiments over sprints, structure built from scratch.
  • We're hiring across levels. Associate/Mid-level PMs (1–4 years) bring hunger and sharp thinking. Senior PMs (5+ years) set the bar for everyone who follows.

Conditions

  • Unlimited PTO
  • Remote-friendly work model
  • Real ownership from Day 1
