Senior Product Manager – Lending

Build the Future of Lending

As a Senior Product Manager, you will shape and scale modern lending products inside a regulated banking environment - rethinking how loans are originated, decisioned, and delivered. This role is about creating durable, intelligent products that unlock growth, improve credit quality, and remove friction across the lending lifecycle.

• Lead discovery, experimentation, and validation before committing to build.
• Design products that balance innovation with regulatory and risk expectations in a banking environment.
• Partner deeply with technology, credit, operations, and compliance to deliver scalable, high-impact products.
• Leverage AI and modern tooling to improve decisioning, automation, data visibility, and workflow efficiency.
• Continuously measure impact and iterate based on outcomes.

Who You Are

• 5+ years in product management, ideally within fintech, lending, embedded finance, or regulated financial services.
• Direct experience with consumer or commercial lending programs, including familiarity with loan origination, underwriting workflows, and servicing lifecycles.
• Demonstrated understanding of government-guaranteed lending programs (e.g., SBA 7(a), 504, USDA) and commercial lending products such as working capital and equipment finance.
• Experience supporting or building fintech lending products, including partnerships with third-party originators, embedded lending platforms, or BaaS lending models.
• A strategic thinker who sees systems, not just features.
• Comfortable working with AI, APIs, automation tools, and modern product platforms.
• Energized by ambiguity and motivated by building products that meaningfully change how work gets done.
• Able to challenge assumptions and think beyond traditional banking processes.
• Outcome-driven and intellectually curious.
