Role
Who you are
- If you’re passionate about building elegant solutions to complex problems and creating products that make people’s financial lives better, we want to hear from you
- 7+ years of relevant product management experience in a financial technology company
- Experience working on directly regulated products in the banking, insurance, wealth management, or treasury space at a growth-stage startup across a variety of different product areas (risk, growth, mobile, core banking, etc.)
- Be technically inclined or comfortable enough with technical concepts to produce detail-oriented requirements that enable your team to ship high-quality features
- Be able to balance a deep technical understanding of product and partner requirements with user empathy
- Be able to take complex problems and distill them into first principles
- Be capable of managing multiple projects simultaneously while keeping a high bar for execution and customer experience
What the job involves
- We’re looking for a Senior Product Manager to join our Personal Banking team and help us shape and scale the consumer banking offering to the next level
- This is an opportunity to work on creating a holistic high-scale consumer banking program, from user-facing experiences that feel magical to the tooling that powers them behind the scenes across risk, support, compliance, and more
- This role demands a mix of vision, empathy, and an intuitive grasp of user needs, both today and tomorrow
- You’ll dive deep into building new small- and large-scale products for personal customers, and the complexities of domestic and international banking networks, quickly uncovering issues, crafting solutions, and championing their importance across teams
- Your ability to wield data with precision will be key to prioritizing and justifying a product roadmap that delivers unparalleled user experiences and integrations
- Collaboration is at the heart of what you’ll do. You’ll work closely with internal teams and external partners to design solutions that feel effortless to users, even when the underlying systems are anything but simple
- The ultimate goal? To create a banking experience that users describe as secure, reliable, thoughtful, and yes, even magical
- Co-own with design and engineering an ambitious product roadmap for consumer banking products - from 0→1 ideas to continuous improvements and scaling the consumer program
- Prioritize areas of product investment using a range of qualitative and quantitative inputs, often to make tradeoffs in a highly ambiguous environment
- Be a collaborative powerhouse across Mercury, ensuring stakeholders are brought in and aligned on the vision of Mercury treasury and feel joint ownership over strategy and results
- Work across product surfaces - growth, risk, and core product - and dimensions - mobile and web products - and help us tie it all together
- Clearly communicate technical and non-technical product specifications for personal banking product improvements/features to enable efficiency across a wide breadth of stakeholders
- Identify opportunities to improve the consumer product experience, enabling both larger and smaller-scale projects
- Drive accountability - hold yourself and others accountable in service of great work
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 100,000 businesses and achieved a $1B valuation in 2021. 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.
