Mercury has long been celebrated for revolutionizing how startups experience the magic of banking*. In April 2024, we took things a step further with the launch of our consumer banking offering - and it’s been a game-changer, quickly becoming one of the fastest-growing segments at Mercury.

Now, we’re looking for a Senior Product Manager to join our Personal Banking team and co-lead the charge in shaping the future of consumer banking and investment offering. This is your opportunity to define the strategy and roadmap for a seamless, innovative banking experience that bridges consumer investments and banking products.

This role demands a mix of vision, empathy, and an intuitive grasp of user needs—both today and tomorrow. You’ll dive deep into building new small- and large-scale products for personal customers and the complexities of domestic and international banking networks, quickly uncovering issues, crafting solutions, and championing their importance across teams. Your ability to wield data with precision will be key to prioritizing and justifying a product roadmap that delivers unparalleled user experiences and integrations.

Collaboration is at the heart of what you’ll do. You’ll work closely with internal teams and external partners to design solutions that feel effortless to users—even when the underlying systems are anything but simple. The ultimate goal? To create a banking and investment experience that users describe as secure, reliable, thoughtful, and yes, even magical.

If you’re passionate about building elegant solutions to complex problems and creating products that make people’s financial lives better, we want to hear from you. Ready to shape the future of personal banking with Mercury? Let’s make it happen.

*Mercury is a financial technology company, not a bank. Banking services provided by Choice Financial Group, Column N.A., and Evolve Bank & Trust, Members FDIC.

As part of the journey, we would expect you to:

  • Co-own with design and engineering an ambitious product roadmap for consumer investment and banking products from ideation to execution
  • Prioritize areas of product investment using a range of qualitative and quantitative inputs, often to make tradeoffs in a highly ambiguous environment
  • Be a collaborative powerhouse across Mercury, ensuring stakeholders are brought in and aligned on the vision of Mercury treasury and feel joint ownership over strategy and results
  • Create strategy and frameworks to inform our future personal banking and investment partnerships strategy
  • Clearly communicate technical and non-technical product specifications for personal banking product improvements/features to enable efficiency across a wide breadth of stakeholders
  • Identify opportunities to improve the consumer product experience, enabling both larger and smaller-scale projects
  • Drive accountability — hold yourself and others accountable in service of great work

Some things that might make you successful in a role like this:

  • 7+ years of relevant product management experience in a financial technology company
  • 5+ years of experience working on directly regulated products in the banking, insurance, wealth management, or treasury space at a growth-stage startup
  • Be technically inclined or comfortable enough with technical concepts to produce detailed-oriented requirements that enable your team to ship high-quality features
  • Be able to balance a deep technical understanding of product and partner requirements with user empathy
  • Be able to take complex problems and distill them into first principles
  • Be capable of managing multiple projects simultaneously while keeping a high bar for execution and customer experience
  • Securities licensed: Series 7, Series 63 (not required but a plus)
