[Hiring] Product Manager @Clerkie

Role Description

We’re looking for a driven, curious, and collaborative Product Manager to join our small-but-mighty Product team. This role is ideal for a product builder who has shipped software before and is ready to take deeper ownership of complex systems in a fast-moving startup environment.

As a Product Manager at Clerkie, you’ll operate at the intersection of technology, business strategy, and real-world financial infrastructure. You’ll collaborate closely with engineers, designers, and leadership while also working directly with external partners to understand how our products perform in the wild. This role offers the opportunity to:

• Own meaningful product surfaces
• Contribute to product strategy
• Lead initiatives that directly impact how Clerkie scales its platform and partnerships
• Work directly with technical and non-technical stakeholders across the business
• Translate complex workflows into scalable product systems

Because Clerkie is still in build mode, this role goes beyond shipping features. You’ll help shape how our product organization operates by:

• Contributing to team rituals, documentation, and product culture
• Building deep product judgment
• Taking real ownership and growing alongside the company

Qualifications

• Experience building and shipping software products in collaboration with engineering teams
• Strong systems thinking - able to break complex workflows into clear product solutions
• Technical fluency - comfortable discussing APIs, data flows, and system architecture with engineers
• Ability to translate real-world problems into clear product requirements and prioritized work
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills across both technical and non-technical audiences
• Strong ownership mindset - takes responsibility for outcomes, not just tasks
• Ability to operate in a fast-moving startup environment where priorities evolve quickly
• Comfort working independently in a remote-first team

Requirements

• Experience working on SaaS platforms, infrastructure products, or developer-facing tools (nice-to-have)
• Familiarity with fintech, financial services, or regulated industries (nice-to-have)
• Experience building products that integrate with external systems or enterprise partners (nice-to-have)
• Background in engineering, computer science, analytics, or another technical field (nice-to-have)
• Experience working in early-stage startups or high-growth environments (nice-to-have)
• Curiosity about financial wellness and technology that improves people’s lives (nice-to-have)

Benefits

• Salary range: $120-150k
• Equity
• Remote-first role (US only)
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) + retirement benefits
• Paid time off + annual company retreat
• Company laptop + home office stipend
• Collaborative, values-driven culture
