Company mission
To make scaling tech companies simpler with a personalized banking stack for startups, and power the next generation of companies that will shape the American industry.
Role
Who you are
- We're looking for someone who has genuinely thought about what it means to help a person find value in a product for the first time and has strong opinions about how to do it. A successful candidate will likely have:
- 7+ years of product management experience, ideally with horizontal, platform, or lifecycle teams; especially those accountable for delivering a quality user experience across surfaces. Bonus points for owning customer journeys or growth funnels in a product-led company
- Strong product intuition, with the ability to turn complex, cross-cutting problems into clear strategy, and to bring others along with your thinking
- Comfort working across disciplines, you’ve collaborated with design, engineering, marketing, and data teams, and know how to drive momentum even when no one reports to you
- A hands-on approach to execution, you’re just as comfortable getting into the details of UX, lifecycle triggers, or onboarding copy as you are shaping vision or setting goals
- Enthusiasm for working with talented (and opinionated) peers, and the maturity to engage thoughtfully and openly in a collaborative environment
What the job involves
- Activation is one of the most important levers we have to grow Mercury, and to grow with intention. It’s how we turn new signups into enduring customers, introduce the full depth of what Mercury can do, and create the foundation for long-term relationships
- This role is at the center of that motion. You’ll help shape how people first experience Mercury, guide them toward value, and design systems that help them build trust, momentum, and confidence. It’s subtle, foundational work, quietly powerful in shaping how our customers grow, and how we grow with them
- *Mercury is a fintech company, not an FDIC-insured bank. Banking services provided through Choice Financial Group and Column N.A., Members FDIC
- Own the end-to-end user journey from deposit to meaningful engagement, increasing the likelihood that customers take their next best step – whether that’s sending a payment, creating a card, or adopting a financial workflow
- Set the direction and define prioritized roadmaps for the team; ensuring we’re focused on work that solves user problems, enables product teams, and maximizes customer value
- Build systems that drive activation through in-product experiences, lifecycle marketing, and experimentation across surfaces like the dashboard and onboarding flow
- Define customer lifecycle strategies for different segments and product surfaces, identifying key inflection points and sequencing the right product interventions
- Use data and user insights to develop hypotheses, design experiments, and measure impact; not just feature usage, but customer progress and business value
- Help develop sticky experiences that make it simple for customers to adopt and find repeatable value across our platform
Our take
Frustrated by the archaic, fee-laden banking services offered to entrepreneurs, the founders of Mercury set out to create a better solution. They envisioned a platform that was dynamic, tech-driven, and free from unnecessary fees.
Mercury delivers on this vision by automating business payment processes, offering FDIC-insured accounts, and providing full API access, empowering entrepreneurs with greater control and efficiency. This approach stands in stark contrast to traditional startup banking, which often burdens young businesses with high fees and limited functionality.
By prioritizing user experience and offering a free service tier, Mercury has attracted over 200,000 businesses and, off the back of a $300 million Series C round, achieved a $5.2B valuation as of 2026. As a rising unicorn in the stagnant world of startup banking, Mercury is poised for continued growth, constantly adding new features and expanding its team to further disrupt the industry.
