About the role

  • We need someone who makes all of that run more smoothly.
  • As Project Manager, Product Team, you are the operational backbone of the product organization.
  • This role is ideal for someone who thrives on structure and communication, has enough fintech context to know why the work matters, and genuinely enjoys being the person who makes a fast-moving team more effective.

Responsibilities

  • Own the tracking and coordination of active product initiatives from kickoff through launch - maintaining timelines, flagging dependencies, and keeping stakeholders informed of progress and blockers
  • Run sprint rituals and cross-functional syncs: coordinate sprint planning, standup agendas, retrospectives, and milestone reviews in partnership with Engineering leads
  • Maintain a clear, up-to-date view of what the product team is working on, what's coming next, and what's at risk - so the Head of Product and CEO are never flying blind
  • Engineering & Partner Communication
  • Coordinate with external merchant partners and technology vendors on integration timelines, documentation needs, and launch readiness - managing communication so product managers can stay focused on product decisions
  • Prepare and maintain project documentation: status updates, launch checklists, integration specs, and meeting recaps that give everyone a single source of truth
  • Help design and improve the operational processes that support product development as the team grows - from how we run standups to how we manage a product launch
  • Support the product team in maintaining internal tools and documentation (Jira, Confluence, Notion, or equivalent), ensuring they reflect current reality and are actually useful
  • Experience coordinating with external partners or vendors: managing communication, tracking deliverables, and keeping integrations on schedule
  • Reporting: Excel - comfortable building and maintaining project trackers

Requirements

  • Familiarity with fintech, lending, or financial services - enough context to understand why a feature matters and what's at stake when something slips

Nice to have

  • Background supporting a product or engineering team specifically - not just general project management
  • Exposure to lending, BNPL, payments, or consumer finance products
  • PMP, Agile, or Scrum certification (not required, but a plus)
  • Experience with third-party API integrations or technical partner coordination
  • Direct exposure to how a venture-backed fintech operates end-to-end
  • Room to grow - as the company scales, so does this role
  • Identify process gaps before they become friction points, and propose lightweight solutions that keep the team moving without adding bureaucracy
  • 3+ years of experience in project management, program management, product operations, or a closely adjacent role - ideally in fintech, SaaS, or financial services

Compensation

  • Hybrid work environment based in NYC
  • $100,000 - $125,000 based on experience

Benefits

  • Equity participation
  • Health benefits, 401(k), and flexible PTO
  • Bonus: familiarity with SQL or data tools for pulling your own status data
