Description

About us: Soar is a global fintech startup that specializes in financing and investment. Currently headquartered in Saudi Arabia, Soar is growing throughout the region with a mission to help people achieve their financial goals with innovative financial and property investment solutions and tools through its multi-purpose platform, designed to offer a simple and seamless user experience. Role Summary: We are seeking a Head of Product (Investment) to lead the "Supply Side" of our platform. You will own the end-to-end product lifecycle for our Investment Portal—from the algorithmic logic that allocates capital to mortgage loans, to the dashboard where investors track their yields. You are not just a manager; you are a builder. You will gather requirements from our Investment Committee and Treasury team, analyze complex financial flows, and translate them into crystal-clear User Stories for our engineering team. Key Responsibilities: 1. Product Strategy & Financial Logic Define the product vision for the Investment Portal (Web & Mobile), ensuring it meets the sophisticated needs of Corporate Treasuries and HNWIs. Design the Allocation Engine: The logic that matches incoming investment capital (Supply) with approved mortgage requests (Demand) to maximize liquidity and minimize idle cash. Structure the digital representation of investment products (e.g., SPVs, Sukuk structures, or fractionalized mortgage portfolios) ensuring 100% accuracy in yield (IRR) and dividend calculations. 2. Requirements Gathering & Analysis (Hands-on) Act as the primary bridge between the Capital Markets Team and Engineering. Lead deep-dive workshops to gather requirements: How do we handle "Capital Calls"? How is "Accrued Interest" displayed? What is the "Exit/Redemption" flow? Translate these requirements into detailed PRDs (Product Requirement Documents) and User Stories with acceptance criteria (Gherkin/JIRA). 3. Compliance & Regulation (KSA Context) Ensure all investment workflows comply with CMA (Capital Market Authority) regulations for investment funds and SAMA (Saudi Central Bank) guidelines for lending integration. Integrate KYC/AML checks specifically for corporate entities (CR verification, UBO declaration) using local integrations (Wathq, Absher, etc.). 4. User Experience (The "Concierge" Feel) Design a premium, transparency-first dashboard that displays "Deployed Capital," "Pending Allocation," and "Realized Returns" in real-time. Automate reporting: Ensure investors receive automated digital performance reports and tax/Zakat statements Requirements: Experience: 7+ years in Product Management, with at least 3 years in FinTech, WealthTech, or Investment Management. Domain Knowledge: Deep understanding of Investment Portfolios, Asset Allocation, and Private Credit/Lending. You know the difference between "Committed Capital" and "Called Capital." Technical Proficiency: Expert in breaking down complex financial concepts into executable User Stories. Familiarity with SQL or API logic is a plus. Regional Knowledge: Experience with KSA regulations (CMA/SAMA) or the broader GCC market is highly preferred. Communication: Native/Fluent proficiency in English is required; Arabic is a strong advantage.
