Technical Product Manager - Sonar

Location

• Remote - United States
• Occasional travel to meet members and the team

About the Role

Sonar is scaling from an industry data utility to critical AI infrastructure for agentic commerce. You will own that product and take it from where it is today to where agents and institutions need it to be.

This is a high-autonomy role for a technically fluent PM. You are comfortable with API design and the infrastructure behind AI agents, and you can work with counsel on what a regulated data-sharing network is allowed to do.

Sonar is a subsidiary of Sardine and our external facing consortium of financial institutions and fintchs, registered under FinCEN Section 314(b). Members share fraud, scam, and money laundering signals through governed data packs.

What you'll be doing

Own the Sonar roadmap and build the infrastructure layers that make it core to how institutions and their agents fight financial crime:

• Collaboration: Secure, governed channels for institutions to work together on suspected financial crime.
• Identity and trust: verified, scoped, and auditable access for institutions and their agents that use Sonar.
• Investigation: governed intelligence that connects related entities across institutions.
• Distribution: making Sonar available wherever institutions and their agents do their work.
• Write and maintain technical specifications, integration playbooks, and documentation for member and partner integrations.
• Turn 314(b), GLBA, FCRA, and BSA constraints into product requirements, including purpose limitation, data handling, and audit. Work directly with Legal on implementation questions.
• Partner with Engineering on the data and platform architecture that lets Sonar scale.
• Work with fraud, AML, and investigations teams at member institutions to understand how analysts work together today.
• Define and track success metrics: member adoption, inquiry volume and response rates, time to answer, and quality of agent usage.
• Work with BD, Sales, and Partnerships to bring new institutions and platform partners onto Sonar.

What you'll need

• 6+ years of product management experience, including 3+ years in payment networks, fintech, financial crime, identity, or data platform products
• Experience shipping APIs or developer-facing products, with fluency in authentication, scoped credentials, and audit logging
• Hands-on experience with AI agents and the infrastructure that supports them
• Working knowledge of financial crime, including fraud, AML, and investigation workflows
• Experience building within regulatory constraints on data use. Familiarity with 314(b), GLBA, or FCRA is ideal.
• Strong analytical skills and comfort querying data to inform decisions
• Clear written specs and the ability to communicate with engineers, lawyers, and bank executives

• Experience with consortium, data cooperative, or information-sharing products
• Background in entity resolution or graph-based investigation
