The Opportunity:We are looking to fill an opening for a Senior Product Manager to join Aviso's Product Management team and help shape the future of investing for Canadians through a best-in-class wealth advisor platform.
Reporting to the Director of Product Management, the Senior Product Manager will lead the Advisor Hub product family and directly own Advisor Hub ACP, which serves advisors at ACP introducing brokers and portfolio management firms. You will also manage and coach three Product Owners who own the other products in the family.
You will help establish and champion our customer-centric product model: empowered, cross-functional teams that discover meaningful customer and business problems, test solutions early, and deliver value incrementally. Working in a leadership triad with a Product Designer and Tech Lead, you are accountable for product value and business viability; the Product Designer leads on desirability and usability; and the Tech Lead and engineers lead on technical feasibility. Together, you share responsibility for product outcomes and make informed trade-offs rather than treating feature delivery as the goal.
This is both a hands-on product role and a people leadership role. You will bring a deep understanding of customers, product data and business constraints to the area you own, working with your team to discover solutions that deliver measurable outcomes. Across the product family, you will set direction, guide priorities and coach Product Owners to lead their areas as outcome-oriented product leaders rather than backlog administrators. You will also champion this way of working across Aviso, building trust through evidence, collaboration and incremental results as we continue to adopt the customer-centric product model.

- Lead discovery in your own area and coach Product Owners to work with customers, users, data and stakeholders to understand problems, test assumptions, and evaluate opportunities before committing to solutions
- Partner with the Product Designer and Tech Lead in the leadership triad to explore options and balance value, viability, desirability and feasibility; involve engineers early and make trade-offs together
- Break larger opportunities into small, testable increments; collaborate with the team on a practical release plan, learn from each release, and adapt based on customer behaviour and measurable outcomes rather than feature output alone
- Own prioritization and the product backlog for your area, ensuring stories and other work are clear and ordered for implementation; support your Product Owners in doing the same, without taking ownership of engineering implementation or technical delivery
- Work with partners in compliance, privacy, operations, marketing, finance and technology to understand constraints early, address dependencies and ensure solutions can work for the business
- Manage, coach and develop Product Owners across their product areas, creating clarity on outcomes, strengthening discovery and judgement, and fostering collaborative relationships with design and technology counterparts

- Strong customer, analytical and problem-solving skills; ability to combine research, feedback and product data to make sound decisions and communicate trade-offs clearly
- Experience partnering closely with product design, technology leads and engineers; enough technical fluency to understand constraints and collaborate effectively without assuming engineering ownership
- People leadership and coaching skills, with the ability to develop Product Owners who own distinct product areas and work effectively within cross-functional teams.
- Business acumen and the ability to work across functions such as customer experience, finance, sales, marketing, operations, compliance and privacy; financial services experience is an asset
- Strong communication and stakeholder-influence skills, including the ability to build support for new ways of working through evidence, collaboration and visible results
