AI Gateway Product Owner

Nordea is modernizing its technology and data estate and accelerating the adoption of AI-enabled capabilities across the bank. We are looking for an AI Gateway Product Owner to drive the strategy, roadmap and delivery of our enterprise AI Gateway platform. The role includes defining how LLMs, MCPs and A2A patterns are securely and consistently exposed across Nordea, working closely with engineers, architects, AI governance, risk and compliance stakeholders, and consuming teams across the bank. The Data Mesh and AI Platforms team (within Integration and AI) provides the platforms that connect Nordea (including Kong and Kafka) and is expanding this platform approach to an AI Gateway covering LLMs, MCP, and A2A. You will shape the product vision for platforms that support predictive AI, generative AI and agentic workflows in a regulated banking environment with a strong focus on secure infrastructure, automated provisioning, identity integration and reusable engineering patterns. This is a full-time permanent position with a hybrid working arrangement—up to 40% remote work is possible, but full remote work is not allowed. We expect to hire in one of these cities: Gdańsk or Gdynia, Poland; Copenhagen, Denmark or Helsinki, Finland. Responsibilities include owning the product vision, translating regulatory requirements (EU AI Act, DORA and GDPR) into platform capabilities and backlog items; acting as the primary point of contact between engineering, architecture, risk and compliance and business stakeholders; driving onboarding of new use cases onto the platform including LLM access via AWS Bedrock and GCP Gemini AI, MCP servers and A2A agent-to-agent patterns; collaborating with engineering teams to ensure the roadmap translates into a strong developer experience; defining and tracking success metrics for platform adoption, governance coverage and operational maturity; representing the AI Gateway platform in governance forums and updates. Ideal candidates are experienced Product Owners with knowledge of API management and gateway patterns, hands-on with LLM gateways, and familiar with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) and their AI stacks. Education: a BSc or MSc in CS, Engineering, Business Informatics or related discipline, or equivalent practical experience; professional experience as Product Owner, Platform Architect or similar. Required: proven experience as a Product Owner of a technical platform; experience with API management or gateway platforms (e.g., Kong, IBM API Connect/DataPower, Apigee or Cloud Gateways); hands-on with LLM gateways or onboarding workflows; knowledge of agents, MCP and A2A and governance through a gateway across clouds; cloud experience (AWS, GCP, Azure) with native AI stacks (Bedrock, Gemini AI); agile delivery experience; strong stakeholder management. Preferred: Kong API/AI Gateway experience; familiarity with EU AI Act, DORA or GDPR; banking/regulated industry background. If this sounds like you, apply by 30/09/2026. Finland: security clearance will be performed. Poland: include permit for processing personal data with the CV. Department: AI & Advanced Analytics. Next steps: Apply now.
