Role
Who you are
- 6-8+ years of product management experience, including significant ownership of fintech, payments, banking, or transaction-heavy platforms
- Proven ability to lead complex product initiatives from discovery through delivery as a senior individual contributor
- Deep understanding of U.S. payments infrastructure (ACH, card networks, payment processors) and familiarity with embedded finance models
- Experience working in regulated environments and collaborating with compliance, legal, and risk stakeholders
- Strong analytical and commercial acumen, with experience owning revenue-driving products or fintech monetization models
- Comfortable navigating complex systems and balancing speed with operational reliability and compliance
- Clear, confident communicator who can influence engineering, finance, and executive stakeholders without formal authority

- Energized by the opportunity to serve sports communities and strengthen the financial backbone of youth and amateur sports
What the job involves
- As Senior Product Manager, Financial Services, you will own the end-to-end financial experience for sports organizers, from how money flows into the platform to how it is managed, reconciled, deployed, and scaled
- Reporting to the Head of Product, you’ll set the strategy and execution for the financial services domain, building a cohesive, compliant, and scalable system that supports organizers’ full financial lifecycle
- This role is deeply hands-on and execution-oriented. You will operate at the intersection of fintech, SaaS, and sports operations, building integrated financial workflows that enable organizers to collect revenue, manage expenses, reconcile accounts, and access capital, all within a unified platform experience
- While you won’t have direct people management responsibilities, you’ll be expected to operate with senior-level judgment, cross-functional influence, and full ownership of one of the company’s most strategic growth areas
- Own the product strategy, roadmap, and execution for our Financial Services portfolio, including payments, budgeting, accounting tools, lending, embedded banking, and card programs
- Define and prioritize features and enhancements based on partner needs, data insights, and business objectives
- Translate complex requirements into clear product specifications, user stories, and acceptance criteria
- Identify opportunities to expand embedded finance capabilities that drive revenue growth, retention, and platform differentiation
- Partner closely with engineering and design throughout discovery, delivery, and iteration
- Collaborate with Finance, Legal, Compliance, and external banking/payment partners to support regulated product initiatives (KYC, AML, PCI, ACH, card issuance, lending)
- Act as a key point of contact for stakeholders across Product, Engineering, Customer Success, Finance, and Payments
- Lead agile product processes, including backlog refinement, sprint planning, and release execution
- Monitor product performance and partner usage metrics, using insights to inform decisions and continuous improvement
- Collaborate with Finance and Payments stakeholders to support compliance, scale, and monetization initiatives
- Work closely with other Product Managers to ensure cohesive, end-to-end partner experiences across the platform
- Stay current on fintech trends, embedded finance models, sponsor bank partnerships, and evolving regulatory requirements in the U.S. market
Our take
Youth sports teams need successful administration and management to thrive, requiring funding and payroll management, networking and scaling, and revenue generation programs. However, such organizations are commonly associated with an absence of technology, resulting in a lack of options for software platforms that help with such administrative tasks.
LeagueApps provides a customizable youth sports management platform to provide an all-in-one solution to aid any sports team's operations and growth. The software provides automation tools for payroll and financing, marketing and growth features, communication dashboards for player and parent retention, and bottom-line tools for revenue generation.
Whilst there are already generalized organization management platforms that youth sports teams can benefit from, LeagueApps has smartly recognized the need for customizable management tools designed to help sports teams. This approach hasn't gone unnoticed by investors, with the company receiving substantial funding in 2024, which will propel its offerings even further.
