Desirable

• As a Senior Product Manager, SDL - Growth, you’ll define and execute our distribution strategy to drive organic adoption among the many Americans who otherwise rely on exploitative debt to manage urgent financial needs. Operating at the intersection of product and marketing, you’ll rapidly test, iterate, and embed growth levers directly into the product experience
• Time Zone Requirements - This team operates on the East/West Coast time zones
• As a digital first company, the majority of your work can be accomplished remotely. The majority of our employees can live and work anywhere in the U.S but are encouraged to to still spend high quality time in-person collaborating via regular onsites.
• The in-person sessions’ cadence varies depending on the team and role; most teams meet once or twice per quarter for 2-4 consecutive days at a time
• Develop a deep understanding of our customers and design empathetic product experiences: address our customers’ real-world needs, meeting them where they are financially and personally
• Define and own our organic distribution strategy: Identify the key channels, tactics, and in-product features that naturally bring new users to our products and retain them without relying on heavy paid acquisition
• Work with engineering to embed growth levers: Partner closely with developers to design, build, and test product capabilities (e.g. referrals, social sharing) that scale organic adoption
• Collaborate with marketing teams to support scalable, cost-effective growth: Work with lifecycle, partnerships, and other existing channels to expand reach while aligning with sustainable unit economics
• Use data to guide rapid iteration: Analyze user behavior, funnel metrics, and unit economics to refine approaches quickly, doubling down on what’s effective while discarding what isn’t
