Product Analyst

About This Role

This Product Analyst role helps define how core fund processes work in both traditional and tokenised models, ensuring that fund managers can issue, service, and distribute funds through a single platform. The position involves working alongside senior Product Managers and Business Analysts to translate research and requirements into clear product definitions, focusing on the intersection of traditional and digital asset fund servicing.

Responsibilities

• Map processes across both traditional and tokenised models, including subscriptions, redemptions, transfers, switches, distributions, and register maintenance, highlighting differences, overlaps, or connection points
• Define the product by converting business needs, client feedback, and regulatory requirements into clear Epics and product specifications for both models
• Document processes clearly, producing process maps (BPMN or similar) and supporting documentation for engineering, delivery, and client teams
• Research the market, tracking regulation, market developments, and competitor offerings in fund servicing and tokenisation, and summarising their implications for the product
• Support the product team by helping senior Product Managers maintain the backlog and prepare materials for delivery teams
• Work with Business Analysts to break Epics into user stories with clear acceptance criteria
• Join the delivery cycle, participating in cross-functional workshops, in-sprint reviews, and testing, and feeding learnings back into requirements
• Keep standards consistent with ZILO's product development framework

Requirements

• Solid grounding in either traditional funds or digital assets, with a working understanding of the other, and curiosity to connect them
• Strong understanding of traditional fund servicing, including the fund dealing cycle (orders, NAV, cut-offs, settlement), investor registers, transfers, distributions, investor onboarding, KYC, and AML checks
• Exposure to transfer agency, fund administration, custody, or wider asset servicing
• Awareness of UCITS and AIF structures, ideally in Ireland or Luxembourg
• Understanding of blockchain basics: tokens, wallets, public and permissioned networks, and smart contracts
• Knowledge of tokenised funds, real-world assets, and on-chain cash such as stablecoins
• Familiarity with DeFi concepts affecting fund servicing: on-chain settlement, delivery-versus-payment, self-custody, and transfer restrictions
• Awareness of MiCA and the EU DLT Pilot Regime
• Ability to break down a process and write clear, structured requirements
• Writing skills suitable for technical and non-technical readers
• Attention to detail and accuracy in a regulated, compliance-driven setting
