Product Manager, Receivables Management and Payment Reconciliation

This full-time Product Manager role is responsible for launching and evolving a product for accounts receivable management and payment reconciliation within accounting and sales-management workflows. The product addresses billing, payment tracking, and matching received amounts against invoices for small-business users. The role is based in Tokyo, and the posting states that online interviews are available.

The Product Manager prioritizes product and feature work by considering objectives, strategy, and feedback from users and stakeholders. Working with UX researchers and analysts, the role identifies unresolved operational problems through both qualitative and quantitative analysis and develops solutions. Responsibilities also include defining the purpose and use cases of development items, documenting requirements in PRDs, designing detailed user experiences during implementation, validating outcomes after release, and improving features based on the results.

The position requires at least three years of experience as a Product Manager, in business development, as a business owner, or in an equivalent role. Candidates must have driven the full process from requirements definition through release in a web or mobile application development project. The posting also requires logical thinking based on quantitative data, problem-solving ability, experience managing a team toward its goals, strong communication, and leadership.

Preferred qualifications include product management experience in SaaS, understanding of ERP or accounting systems, experience developing Product Managers, and experience creating medium- to long-term roadmaps, making investment decisions, and developing an organization.

The product is part of an integrated cloud software offering for small businesses that includes accounting, human resources and labor management, and sales management. The role represents its assigned product or platform, builds a detailed understanding of users, defines direction, and leads product evolution. People management for engineers, designers, or data analysts; landing-page and help-page web direction; customer-support operations by phone or chat; and advertising, promotion, or CRM marketing are not part of the Product Manager's basic responsibilities, although practical experience in related teams may be supported when requested or necessary. Duties may change according to business circumstances and the individual's suitability.

The posting seeks someone who identifies problems independently, involves others in solving them, learns and grows autonomously through change, makes decisions from a broad business perspective, and respects diverse opinions while working toward team goals.
