This role will focus on quickly identifying new product opportunities, rapidly building and testing solutions, and scaling successful products that help our customers achieve financial freedom.

Who You Are:

• You have a strong empathy for users and excel in uncovering customer pain points and transforming them into innovative product solutions.
• You thrive in ambiguous, fast-paced startup environments and are comfortable leading new initiatives from 0 to 1.
• You’re entrepreneurial, resourceful, and passionate about building products that can dramatically change people’s financial lives.

• You’re highly experimental and data-driven, constantly testing assumptions to find product-market fit.

About the Role:

The Senior Product Manager for the New Product Innovation Team will be at the forefront of identifying and validating new product categories, creating MVPs (minimum viable products), and quickly iterating based on customer feedback. You will work cross-functionally to ensure products are launched effectively and with a “test-and-learn” mentality to drive real customer impact. Reporting to the Senior Manager of Product Management, this role will drive high-impact product development in the early stages of the product lifecycle.

What You Will Do:

• Lead the discovery and creation of new products and product categories that align with Self Financial’s mission of helping customers build credit and achieve financial freedom.
• Develop rapid prototypes and MVPs for early customer testing, continually iterating based on customer feedback and performance data.
• Establish and manage a "test-and-learn" roadmap to quickly validate product-market fit for new products and features.
• Collaborate with design, engineering, analytics, marketing, and other cross-functional teams to develop and launch products quickly and effectively.
• Partner with leadership to identify strategic opportunities and shape the product vision for the innovation team.
• Use data and experimentation (e.g., A/B testing, customer interviews, surveys) to inform decisions and guide product prioritization.
• Drive project execution by balancing short-term deliverables with the long-term strategy, while managing resources and timelines.
• Foster an agile, experimental culture within the team to continuously push the boundaries of product development.
• Stay informed about trends in FinTech, particularly in consumer finance, credit-building, and financial inclusion, and leverage these insights to fuel new product ideas.

What You Bring:

• Bachelor’s degree in Business, Computer Science, or a related field.
• 5+ years of experience in product management, with a track record of building and launching innovative products, ideally in a fast-paced, startup-like environment.
• Experience in developing new product categories or working in 0-to-1 product spaces, with a focus on quick iteration and market validation.
• Exceptional problem-solving skills, with the ability to pivot and adapt when necessary to uncover the best product opportunities.
• Strong communication and leadership skills, with the ability to influence and collaborate with stakeholders at all levels.
• Highly analytical, with experience using both qualitative and quantitative data to inform product decisions.
• Proven ability to drive execution and deliver results in environments with high uncertainty and experimentation.
• Passion for Self Financial’s mission to help underserved consumers access financial tools to build their credit and improve their financial future.
• Excel and financial modeling experience a plus
