Job Description:
About the Company Valon is building the AI-native operating
system for regulated finance, starting with mortgage servicing.
We're a Series C company backed by a16z, transforming industries
that others have written off as too complex to innovate. Rather
than build on top of broken legacy systems, we took a different
approach: we built and operate our own mortgage servicing business
managing $110 billion in loans. This wasn't the end goal, it was
how we deeply understood the complexity needed to build software
that actually works in regulated industries. The results speak for
themselves. We've transformed mortgage servicing from a 0% margin
business into 60% margins while dramatically improving customer
experience. Major enterprise contracts are now deploying across the
industry. ValonOS is our unified platform that makes every process
structured and programmable and it is perfectly positioned for the
AI era. When everything flows through one system with rich data, AI
agents don't just automate tasks, they continuously improve entire
operations. Mortgage servicing is just the beginning of our vision
to transform regulated industries and beyond. About the Team You’ll
join the core Platform & Infrastructure product org. This team
builds the foundational systems and services that serve as the
backbone for features across our entire product suite. While many
infrastructure teams operate behind the scenes, ours sits at an
intersection. We build systems that internal vertical teams depend
on, and we also deliver features that directly touch end users
(e.g. platforms, self-service tools, dashboards). Because of that,
you’ll balance deep technical rigor with customer empathy. We
operate in a high-growth, high-authenticity engineering culture.
You’ll partner with senior engineers, architects, and
cross-functional leads, and have high visibility across the org.
Responsibilities As a Senior Product Manager, Infrastructure &
Platform, you will: Define and own the roadmap for one or more core
infrastructure domains (such as notification platform, documents
platform, user management, etc.) Deeply engage with internal
stakeholders (engineering leads, vertical PMs, operations) and our
customers to drive discovery and specification. Drive initiatives
end-to-end: from ideation, discovery, scoping, to launch, adoption,
and iteration. Work directly with customers/stakeholders (sometimes
on-site at their operations) so that your deliverables are finely
tuned to their unique and complex processes Ensure infrastructure
is resilient, scalable, observable, and secure — balancing
performance, reliability, and long-term extensibility. Lead
discovery for complex customer processes: conduct customer
interviews and complete process mapping across multiple customers
of varying profiles Deep ability to map processes and systems even
in high ambiguity — e.g. you can take a domain with many moving
pieces and build a reliable abstraction Write clear, structured
product specs, user stories that are easy to understand, even for
someone without any domain knowledge Partner closely with
engineering leadership and architects to make tradeoffs on design,
performance, scale, and technical debt Evangelize infrastructure
best practices across the organization and influence roadmap
tradeoffs Ideal Background 5 years of product management (or
equivalent) experience, ideally with exposure to b2b saas products,
