[Hiring] Product Manager - Growth @Kovo

Role Description

Join an early-stage startup to accelerate economic opportunity. You'll have end-to-end responsibility for Kovo's core product, focusing on:

• Onboarding
• Lifecycle
• Conversion
• Retention

This role is a good fit if:

• You've shipped code to production and decided what to build.
• You go deep on funnels, workflows, and lifecycle systems, finding opportunities others missed.
• When you find a fix, you open a PR instead of writing a ticket.
• You think in experiments and measured lift, not campaign sends.
• You want to inform the direction for a product.

Qualifications

• 4+ years, or equivalent depth, in product engineering, growth engineering, or a product role where you shipped your own code.
• Recent experience shipping production code in TypeScript, React, or similar (AI-assisted counts).
• Track record of measured wins in activation, conversion, retention, or reactivation in a consumer product.
• Comfortable with event-driven systems, product analytics, experiment design, and lifecycle platforms.
• Intermediate SQL or better.
• Bonus: Consumer fintech experience.

Requirements

• Mindset: You want to own outcomes and measure yourself by what moved.
• Energized by helping underserved people build credit and financial identity.
• Comfortable in a high-intensity, remote role with full ownership and little scaffolding.
• Hate AI slop; you use agents heavily and hold their output to a higher bar than your own.

Benefits

• Direct impact on millions of people's ability to access credit.
• High ownership with minimal bureaucracy.
• Speed, learning, and impact are core values.
