Lead Technical Program Manager

Role overview A consumer fintech is hiring a Lead Technical Program Manager to shepherd a new generation of financial products from early concept through launch and scale. The role sits at the intersection of Product, Engineering, Design, Data, Risk, Compliance, and Operations, and is built for someone energized by ambiguous, zero-to-one work where the playbook does not yet exist. Expect to translate strategy into executable roadmaps and create the operating structure that lets teams learn quickly while shipping responsibly.

Responsibilities - Lead complex new-product programs from technical discovery and early validation through development, launch, iteration, and scaling. - Partner with Product and Engineering leadership to convert strategy into sequenced roadmaps that span multiple teams and technical systems. - Surface architecture decisions, dependencies, risks, and operational readiness needs as products move through each development stage. - Coordinate across Engineering, Design, Data, Analytics, Risk, Compliance, Legal, Finance, Operations, and Marketing so launches work end to end. - Design launch and experimentation frameworks that turn member behavior into learning inputs for what comes next. - Anticipate technical and operational constraints early and help teams balance speed to market with reliability, scalability, and long-term flexibility.

Requirements - 8+ years leading complex technical programs, including significant ownership of consumer product launches or zero-to-one initiatives. - Proven experience taking products from early definition through launch in partnership with Product, Engineering, and cross-functional partners. - Strong technical fluency across modern software systems, including mobile apps, APIs, distributed systems, data platforms, and third-party integrations. - Demonstrated ability to identify cross-team dependencies and risks and convert complexity into clear execution plans. - Strong written and verbal communication, including translating technical or regulatory complexity for senior stakeholders. - Track record of influencing without direct authority and building alignment across teams with different priorities.

Nice to have - Fintech experience across banking, payments, credit, lending, or other regulated consumer financial products. - Experience launching products that involve financial partners, regulated workflows, or complex operational requirements.

Benefits and work setup - Virtual-first culture with flexible hours and a home office stipend; team members can live and work anywhere in the United States except Hawaii. - Premium medical, dental, and vision insurance; 401(k) with employer matching; financial advisor and wellness support. - Generous paid parental and caregiver leave, flexible PTO, and company holidays that include Juneteenth and a winter break. - All-company in-person events roughly once or twice a year plus ongoing virtual gatherings.
