About the team:
We are seeking a Director of Product Management to join our Product team, with a focus on owning and scaling new product initiatives. This leader will focus on new category expansion, including strategy for our current debit product as well as future lending products, with the goal of building deeper, long-term relationships with our members.
This is not a traditional product role focused solely on features and delivery. We’re looking for someone who approaches product as a business to be grown, with accountability for outcomes, strategy, and long-term member value. You will be responsible for driving performance, making data-driven decisions, and ensuring products deliver measurable impact for both our customers and the company.
Our ideal candidate has hands-on experience in fintech, with a track record of building consumer fintech products that serve millions of users. You will bring a balance of strategic vision and executional rigor: able to translate insights into roadmaps, dig into metrics to optimize performance, and build alignment with cross-functional stakeholders.
This role requires both leadership and closeness to the work. While managing and coaching PMs, you will also lead squads of designers, engineers, analysts, and marketers - setting direction, clearing roadblocks, and ensuring the business moves forward.
This is an opportunity to own product lines with true accountability - building not just new features, but new businesses within a product-first company.

Requirements

• 8+ years in product management within consumer (preferably in fintech), including 4+ years leading PMs or multi-disciplinary squads.
• Builder’s DNA with proven track record launching and scaling net-new products (0 → 1 → scale) with measurable business impact.
• Cross-functional leadership skills, with a history of aligning diverse stakeholders across product, engineering, operations, and external partners.
• Executive-ready communicator, able to simplify complex data and influence C-suite leaders, regulators, and network partners.
• Analytical hunter mindset with strong judgment - expert in SQL and data analysis (Python/R a plus), able to cut through noise in complex data to surface insights and drive decisive action.
• AI-driven curiosity - fluent in applying AI to real product work beyond the basics (e.g., idea generation, data analysis, workflow automation), with the instinct to make teams and leaders smarter through creative AI use cases.
• Technical curiosity and fluency; a Bachelor’s degree in a technical field is a plus.

Responsibilities

• Set the vision, deliver the results: Responsible for a new credit product, you’ll develop and champion a vision that spans from the next 3 months to 3 years - making crisp quarterly bets while also driving longer-term initiatives that unlock deeper daily engagement and profitable growth.
• Ship with speed and conviction: Lead product squads through discovery, delivery, and in-market optimization - ensuring fast execution without losing sight of long-term impact.
• Own the numbers: Take full accountability for product performance and translate metrics into clear narratives that guide adjacent product and marketing teams. Measure rigorously, surface insights in business reviews, and drive action when the data calls for it.
• Enable flawless execution: Act as the connective tissue across Engineering, Risk, Marketing, Finance, sponsor banks/networks, etc. — ensuring alignment on priorities, clarity on plans, and efficient execution toward business outcomes.
• Coach and amplify talent: Uplevel PMs, designers, and analysts by embedding Dave’s values of Transparency and Better Together into how teams operate and collaborate.
• Build a culture of evidence: Establish experimentation and analytics frameworks that turn millions of daily swipes into insights — enabling decisions that grow LTV and raise member NPS.
• Invent tomorrow’s products: Explore and validate new product opportunities, using learnings to inform a 3-month to 3-year product strategy that balances quick wins with bold bets - with the potential to expand scope and team as new products scale.

Benefits

• Opportunity to tackle tough challenges, learn and grow from fellow top talent, and help millions of people reach their personal financial goals
• Flexible hours and virtual first work culture with a home office stipend
• Premium Medical, Dental, and Vision Insurance plans
• Generous paid parental and caregiver leave
• 401(k) savings plan with matching contributions
• Financial advisor and financial wellness support
• Flexible PTO and generous company holidays, including Juneteenth and Winter Break
• All-company in-person events once or twice a year and virtual events throughout to connect with your team members and leadership team
