What the job involves
- Wealthfront is looking for an experienced Sr. Product Marketing Manager to own our Cash (banking) products
- Cash is the hub of Wealthfront’s financial ecosystem; clients love it for its instant money movement, joint account access, and the way it simplifies earning more with their cash

- This role reports directly to a Product Marketing Director

- The product marketing team is a critical function that helps define the roadmap, find desperate audiences, refine positioning and scale products after they have found product market fit.
- Successful product marketers at Wealthfront are able to define and validate the value and growth hypotheses for a product, are energized by iterative experimentation, excel in ambiguous environments, and are fluent with qualitative and quantitative data. They are also strong cross-functional leaders and communicators
- This is an ideal opportunity for a product marketer looking to make a big impact. Success will require strategic thinking, analytical rigor, and a customer-focused mindset. You’ll help us build and grow financial products that favor people, not institutions
- Craft and execute strategies to evolve and strengthen the positioning of Wealthfront’s Cash account, identifying desperate audiences and new growth opportunities for the banking product

Our take
Wealthfront's platform takes the hassle and stress out of investing, financial planning, borrowing, and saving with automated services and financial advice. Its robo-advisor allows customers to set a financial limit on their accounts, anything above the limit is moved into an investment account or another account chosen by the customer.
Indeed, it has some similarities to round-up apps like Acorn, which round up purchases and put the spare change into savings. There are other companies working on robo-advisors too, such as Morgan Stanley and Betterment.
Nonetheless, with an impressive and steadily increasing list of clients, and more than $50B of assets under its management, Wealthfront achieved Unicorn status in September 2022. Now it is diversifying its offerings, branching into high-interest checking accounts and investment advice and reportedly seeking a valuation of up to $2.05B in its upcoming IPO, a move that puts the company in a strong position for even more growth.
