Role
As one of Samaya's Finance Product Managers, you'll own the domain strategy that helps investment professionals find actionable insights in vast, noisy datasets. You'll be the bridge between our Product, ML Research, and Engineering teams: defining real-world financial workflows, curating evaluation datasets, and validating AI outputs in live client pilots. Your expertise will directly shape the platform's capabilities in valuation, modeling, and due diligence.
This is a hands-on role for someone who already knows finance deeply and wants to shape how AI does that work, rather than advise on it from a distance. Your financial judgment sets the standard the product is held to, and you should expect to be in the detail day to day, in a fast-moving startup where the playbook is still being written.
Responsibilities
Product Domain
Translate financial workflows — turn investment banking, private equity, buy-side, and sell-side research workflows into product requirements and success metrics
Author playbooks — codify best practices for AI-assisted financial analysis
Surface insights — bring high-signal findings back to inform roadmap priorities
Evaluation Pilots
Build the evals — design proprietary benchmarks, test suites, and datasets for model evaluation
Partner with ML Research — work with researchers to refine models, shape prompt strategies, and validate outputs against expert standards
Run client pilots — co-pilot pilots with leading financial institutions, gather feedback, and iterate fast
Work in the detail — grade answers and audit agent execution traces; getting models to do expert financial work involves a lot that looks like associate-level work
Experience
Required
Institutional Finance Background — 3+ years at a top-tier investment bank, hedge fund, asset manager, or buy-side/sell-side research team (equity research included)
Deep finance expertise — strong command of one or more of financial modeling, valuation, capital markets research, and deal execution
Translates ambiguity — proven ability to turn ambiguous problems into clear requirements and measurable outcomes
Exceptional communicator — clear written and verbal communication with senior stakeholders
Genuine AI fluency — you use AI in your work concretely, not just in passing
Preferred
Technical fluency — hands-on scripting in Python or SQL for data analysis
Both sides of research — exposure to both sell-side and buy-side research models
Startup exposure — prior experience at a fast-growing fintech or AI startup
