Senior Product Manager
Self Financial is a venture-backed, high-growth FinTech company with a mission to increase economic inclusion and financial resilience by empowering people to build credit and build savings.
We're looking for people who share our passion and are driven to tackle challenges, find solutions and make the financial space better for the communities we serve.
Our team is passionate about challenging the status quo of the credit industry by providing people accessible tools to take control of their credit. Executing on our mission requires deep collaboration across our teams to ensure our products reach the people who can benefit from them the most, particularly the 100 million+ Americans who have no or low credit.
We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees. To that end, we seek to recruit, develop and retain the most talented people from a diverse candidate pool.
About the role
You have strong empathy for users, a drive to discover and resolve their pain points and use quantitative and qualitative data to guide your hypotheses. You use that customer discovery to shape the product direction. You thrive in a fast-paced, fast-growing startup environment. You understand the importance of collaborating with other teams and can act quickly as the decision-maker when required. You have a passion for our mission of helping people to build credit and save money.
What you’ll do:
- Contribute to the growth, profitability, and regulatory compliance of our products
- Work with business stakeholders and closely monitor KPIs and P&L for products
- Establish a shared vision across the company by building consensus on priorities leading to a short-term and long-term product roadmap
- Inform product decisions with quantitative and qualitative data on customer behavior and experimentation to prioritize your roadmap (e.g., A/B testing, survey data, usability studies)
- Lead execution with the Engineering team to prioritize competing tactical and strategic items into a backlog
- Author requirements and feature documentation and manage the day-to-day ceremonies, from planning to sprints to stand-ups and retros, to execute against your roadmap
- Partner with Risk, Compliance, Marketing, Engineering, Design, Analytics, and Operations teams to build software collaboratively and inclusively
- Follow written risk and compliance policies and procedures for business activities
- Evaluate the competitive landscape and stay informed of the latest trends in FinTech and Consumer Apps in general
What you’ll bring:
- 5+ years experience as a Product Manager, with prior experience in FinTech is required
- Experience designing intuitive mobile user interfaces and executing product plans with a well-defined process
- Experience conducting user research to educate product design
- Strong analytical skills, competence in SQL, and experience with tools for doing data analysis
Our interview process at Self is designed to let you get to know us as much as for us to get to know you!
- You’ll meet with someone from our Recruiting team so we can learn more about you and answer some of your questions.
- You’ll meet with the Hiring Manager to learn more about the team, the role, and get to tell us more about what you’d bring to the team.
- You’ll meet team members who will be your peers to help you get a feel for a “real day in the life” at Self.
We have the compensation and benefits you expect. But there's one thing that Self Financial can offer that many startups cannot: we can positively change the world, while making a profit. We are a team of Builders, empowering our customers to build their dreams. We have a Do the Right Thing ethos in all that we do, and we hope you value that approach, too.
Our perks include:
- Company Equity in the form of RSUs
- Quarterly performance-based bonuses
- Generous employer-paid health, vision and dental insurance coverage
- Flexible vacation policy
