Senior Product Manager, Platform & Emerging Technology
You bring technical depth and product craft to discovery, platform strategy, and emerging technology.
You thrive at the intersection of innovation and engineering - shaping platform capabilities, defining technical roadmaps, and guiding prototypes, pilots, and AI-powered solutions. You transform uncertainty into scalable foundations that help the organisation innovate faster and more effectively.
You are a technically fluent product leader with strong instincts for feasibility, architecture, and the systems that make experimentation possible.
Do work that matters
The Product Discovery and Experimentation Team sits within the Chief Information Office for Technology. Our mission is to help business units take bold bets, raise the standard of discovery and experimentation, create leverage with AI-powered ways of working and help teams move faster with clarity and confidence. We are at the forefront of technology, using innovative and emerging technology to help our customer and support our Group Strategy.
We work hard to ensure that best practice, whether inside CommBank or outside in the broader technology ecosystem, is discovered, sheltered, nurtured, and spread to wherever else it can drive the most benefit for the Group and our customers.
