Working at Nordiska
Since our founding, we have been dedicated to making a difference and driving innovation. We work towards an ambitious vision and goals, backed up by our history of successfully delivering high-quality results and sustainable growth.
Historically and going forward, the people working at Nordiska are what enables our success. We balance our professional environment with an entrepreneurial mindset, always acting with honesty and responsibility, to build long-term trust among customers, partners and employees.
About the Role
As Product Manager, Cards – Partner Programs you will own the product roadmap and execution for a specific partner-branded card program. You'll act as the main point of contact between our partner and Nordiska, ensuring the program delivers on both the partner's brand and business ambitions and Nordiska's technical and regulatory standards.
You'll work closely with our partner's product, marketing, and commercial teams, as well as Tech Leads and engineers on the Nordiska side. The role requires equal parts commercial sense, product craft, and an ability to operate as a trusted counterpart to an external organization. You'll be backed by Nordiska's broader Cards vertical with its established platform, Staff Engineers and Lead Engineers, while owning the day-to-day product decisions for your program.
At Nordiska, Product and Tech operate as highly integrated teams with shared ownership of outcomes. Product Managers and Tech Leads work side-by-side in autonomous teams with high accountability, fast decision-making, and continuous iteration.
In the role, you will:
Own the product vision, roadmap, and execution for your partner program, aligning the partner's commercial ambitions with Nordiska's technical and regulatory direction.
Act as the primary product counterpart to the partner, building strong working relationships across their product, marketing, and commercial teams.
Translate partner needs and customer insights into prioritized requirements, ensuring focus on the highest-value initiatives for both parties.
Partner closely with Tech Leads and engineers to define solutions, coordinate integrations, resolve blockers, and deliver scalable card and payment experiences.
Lead the product lifecycle from discovery to launch and iteration, using data, customer insights, and operational feedback to continuously improve the program.
Define and monitor KPIs related to customer adoption, engagement, program performance, and commercial outcomes – shared with the partner where relevant.
Coordinate across Nordiska's internal stakeholders – Operations, Risk, Compliance, Finance, and Customer Support – to ensure the program runs smoothly day-to-day.
Contribute to the broader Cards vertical, sharing learnings and helping shape how Nordiska builds and operates partner-branded card programs.
Your Professional Profile
You lead with a humble and engaged approach, comfortable building relationships with external partners and operating confidently within a regulated business context.
You are ambitious, demonstrating self-leadership, agile decision-making, and the ability to deliver high-impact results in close collaboration with others.
You are commercially curious – you genuinely care about your partner's business and find ways to make their program succeed within Nordiska's platform.
You are energized by working at the intersection of two organizations, where alignment, trust, and clear communication matter as much as product craft.
We believe that you have:
Experience as a Product Manager within fintech, banking, payments, or cards, with a strong understanding of modern product development and agile ways of working.
Experience working with external partners, clients, or B2B2C setups – ideally as the primary product owner for a partner-facing program.
Comfort working at the intersection of business, technology, and customer needs.
A strong track record of building and improving digital products across the web and/or mobile.
Experience with product discovery methods, user research, and structured roadmap and prioritization.
The ability to lead stakeholders, manage alignment across organizational boundaries, and drive collaboration in cross-functional settings.
