Product Manager, Capital Markets

AFS is the leading provider of commercial loan lifecycle management software for large U.S. banks, and the AFSVision platform runs the commercial lending operations of many of the largest institutions in the country. The Product Manager, Capital Markets owns the Capital Markets workflows within AFSVision end to end — syndications, loan trading, and participations — defining what gets built, why it matters to agent and member banks, and how it advances AFS’s strategic and commercial goals.

This role exists to close the gap between technical development and customer experience, translating market trends, client feedback, and regulatory change into a prioritized roadmap the organization can execute against. Success is measured in capabilities that are competitive, scalable, profitable, and demonstrably adopted by the banks that depend on AFSVision every day.

This domain covers:

• Syndications — agent and member
• Participations bought and sold
• Trader workstation, allocations, and mark-to-market
• Holders of record and funds management
• Swing lines and loan trading

This role owns the full product lifecycle for the Capital Markets workflows of the AFSVision suite, including continuous discovery, opportunity framing, requirements, prototyping and validation, release readiness, launch, and post-launch iteration. The Product Manager decides backlog priority and sequencing within the approved investment parameters, decides which assumptions are tested and in what order, decides prototype fidelity, and makes the call to loop, revise, or kill an opportunity before it reaches production build.

Client feedback reaches the Product Manager through the Product Operations intake funnel for a productization disposition before estimation, with delivery and client communication owned by Professional Services or Support. Changes to committed client deliverables, investment beyond approved capacity, product pricing and packaging, contractual commitments, and decisions that materially affect platform architecture or adjacent product domains are escalated to the Chief Product Officer as appropriate.

This role will interact heavily with the Lead Designer. New interaction patterns produced during prototyping are contributed back to the design system rather than forked, and Design owns the standards those contributions must meet. The role also operates within AFS’s regulated environment, including FFIEC examination, SOC 2, and client audit obligations, so that auditability, data protection, and change control are treated as design inputs rather than downstream concerns.

The Product Manager, Capital Markets partners closely with the Principal Product Manager, AFSVision to ensure the Capital Markets roadmap stays cohesive with the other three lending-function themes.

• Define — the product vision, long-term goals, and multi-year strategy for the Capital Markets theme of the AFSVision suite, aligned to AFS’s enterprise strategy and commercial objectives.
• Own — a prioritized, sequenced roadmap across syndications, participations, trader workstation, funds management, and loan trading that balances client feedback, market and regulatory trends, technical health, and business objectives, and defend the trade-offs behind it.
• Discover — continuously rather than only when a project opens, drawing on client interviews, support tickets, telemetry, and sales calls with agent and member banks, and using AI to synthesize that corpus into recurring pains, supporting evidence, and a maintained opportunity backlog.
• Frame — each opportunity as a measurable outcome rather than a feature, producing a one-page problem brief with the evidence attached before any solution work begins.
• Map — the…
