Product Manager

Product Manager / Implementation Lead

New Jersey (Hybrid – onsite initially)

$120,000–$150,000

Position Overview:

We are seeking a highly capable, execution-driven Product Manager / Implementation Lead to own the development, implementation, and scaling of a software-enabled financial wellness platform. This role sits at the intersection of product strategy, technical execution, and systems design .

This is not a traditional product role. It requires someone who can translate vision into working systems, manage technical teams without being hands-on in code, and push the product forward with discipline and clarity. The role functions as a near-partner to the founder and is critical to bringing a behavior-driven product to market at scale.

This is an opportunity for someone who thrives behind the scenes, takes pride in execution, and builds systems that quietly but powerfully work.

The Ideal Candidate:

Is intrinsically motivated and driven by internal standards of excellence

Takes pride in getting the work done—not in recognition or visibility

Does not seek the limelight; prefers impact over attention

Has the confidence and emotional intelligence to push back thoughtfully

Is thick-skinned, grounded, and comfortable working with strong personalities

Thinks in systems and processes, not just features

Enjoys simplifying complexity and making products intuitive

Understands how behavior, data, and technology intersect

Thrives in high-ownership, low-ego environments

Key Responsibilities:

Own the product roadmap from MVP through scalable platform development

Translate behavioral finance concepts into clear, functional software features

Oversee product dashboards, data inputs, and user experience simplification

Identify, prioritize, and implement automation and AI opportunities

Lead implementation of systems, workflows, and internal processes

Evaluate and refine backend architecture and data points

Manage and coordinate developers and technical vendors

Hire and oversee team members as the product and company scale

Act as a strategic thought partner to the founder

Push back when necessary to protect product integrity and execution quality

Ensure systems support behavior change—not just data tracking

Qualifications and Must-Haves:

Experience in product management, implementation leadership, or product-operations roles

Strong technical fluency; able to lead engineers and technical vendors confidently

Proven experience managing development teams or external technical partners

Background in SaaS, fintech, healthtech, or data-driven platforms preferred

Experience building or scaling products from early-stage MVPs

Familiarity with tools such as Paperbell, Monday, Asana, and modern frontend frameworks (e.g., Flutter)

Experience hiring and managing small teams

High emotional intelligence and sound judgment under pressure

Ability to operate autonomously with minimal oversight
