We're looking for a Product Manager to own the systems that keep the company's loans running after they close: servicing, payments and money movement, valuations, and the vendor integrations behind them . Our internal teams (Servicing, Treasury, Capital Markets, and Operations) are your customers, and the borrowers they serve feel every improvement you ship . You'll own end-to-end execution across several products at once, work independently day to day, and partner with product leadership on the broader roadmap .

You get to

•

Own the back office: Drive products that move real money and real loans: borrower payments, bank account verification, appraisals and inspections, and the data feeds our capital and servicing partners depend on .

•

Execute end-to-end: Take projects from early conception through design, development, launch, and post-launch measurement .

•

Automate with AI and modern tooling: Find where automation and AI can take manual work off our operations teams, and where a simpler software fix is the better answer .

•

Collaborate & facilitate: Collaborate with a dedicated engineering team, driving requirements and engineering prioritization .

•

Scale impact: Manage multiple products in different phases of their lifecycle in parallel, from new integrations to keep-the-lights-on improvements .

What you would do

•

Roadmap & backlog: Turn internal and borrower pain points into a prioritized roadmap . Balance new initiatives with production support and operational improvements, and keep a live, refined backlog .

•

Money movement & integrations: Partner with Treasury and engineering on bank and payment integrations (ACH, wires, account verification), and with vendors on appraisal, inspection, insurance, and servicing data feeds . Attention to detail is critical as a small mistake means a bounced payment or money movement issue .

•

Operational excellence: Triage production support issues to tell real bugs from expected behavior, find the root cause, and turn recurring manual workarounds into product improvements .

•

AI product development: Identify where AI meaningfully beats traditional software for our operations teams, and navigate edge cases, accuracy, and adoption .

•

Data & metrics: Use data to size problems, model ROI, and define and track success metrics for your areas, including operational metrics such as automation rates, error rates, and time saved .

•

Cross-functional leadership: Lead Servicing, Treasury, Capital Markets, Compliance, and Operations stakeholders toward a shared roadmap, and communicate decisions and tradeoffs clearly .

What you bring

•

Experience: 2 - 4 years of relevant experience in product management or a related field . You've completed multiple release cycles and product lifecycles as a PM .

•

Domain knowledge: A good understanding of lending, real estate, and industry dynamics . Experience with loan servicing, payments, or financial operations is a strong plus .

•

Technical fluency: Comfortable working closely with engineers on integrations, data models, and APIs, and able to read data well enough to answer your own questions .

•

AI awareness: A solid grasp of foundational AI concepts, and the judgment to know when (and when not) to apply them .

•

Analytical skills: Strong strategic thinking, data analysis, and prioritization . You weigh tradeoffs well, especially between new work and operational risk .

•

Communication & leadership: Excellent communication and stakeholder management, including with non-technical operations teams .

•

Autonomy: Able to work fully independently on most day-to-day responsibilities, while taking guidance on high-level strategic roadmaps .

Bonus points

•

Experience with loan servicing systems, payment rails (ACH/wire), bank APIs, or vendor integrations .

•

Experience working at a fast-growing startup, especially in FinTech or PropTech .

•

Experience defining success metrics for automation, machine learning, or generative AI features .

•

Experience vibe coding your own projects or for work .

•

A technical degree (CS, EE, etc.) or equivalent work experience in a product development-driven environment .
