At GWI we're always looking for extraordinary people who thrive on making an extraordinary impact. Right now we're looking for a Technical Product Manager to play a key role in our calculations squad of the Platform Product team in Athens. If that's you, and making a difference gets you out of bed in the morning, keep reading. It could be the start of something, well, extraordinary.

Sounds great, what will I be doing?

As our Technical Product Manager you'll sit within the Calculations squad of the Platform Product team, who are responsible for GWI's high-performance computation engine that processes billions of data points to deliver fast, accurate, and scalable insights. This system sits at the core of our platform, powering in-memory data processing across all our products and services. You'll work closely with engineering teams to define how our core calculations, APIs, and data pipelines power end-user insights. You'll ensure that our platform remains scalable, reliable, and future-proof, while translating highly technical capabilities into clear product outcomes.

This role is perfect for someone who loves solving complex technical challenges, thrives in cross-functional collaboration, and is excited by the idea of building systems that empower customers to uncover meaningful insights at scale.

You will:

• Define and own the roadmap and backlog for backend systems (calculation engine, APIs, data processing pipelines) that power insights across our platform.
• Translate technical detail into clarity; document expected system behaviors and calculations logic, write product requirements, and communicate technical changes to internal and external stakeholders.
• Collaborate with engineering leads to prioritize and deliver performance, scalability, and reliability improvements without disrupting team autonomy.
• Partner with cross-functional teams (Data Science, Research, Customer Success) to ensure backend capabilities align with product strategy and customer needs.
• Drive technical alignment by facilitating discussions, clarifying dependencies, and ensuring consistent delivery across multiple product squads.
• Evangelize the platform internally and externally, help stakeholders understand how our core systems translate into customer value.

What do I need to bring with me?

You'll need to be able to demonstrate the core skills this role requires. You don't have to tick all the boxes right away; the important thing is that you're willing to learn. Here's what the team will be looking for:

Equally important is attitude. We want people who think big (to make an impact), ask why (to find a better way), and show respect (to everyone, at every level, all the time). Those are our values, exemplified by our leadership team, and they're a big part of what we're looking for in you.

Interview steps Preliminary phone call with the Talent Team (no video required First video interview with the hiring managers Second (and final*) video interview with the hiring panel, often including a presentation, followed by a values conversation with members of the wider GWI community.
