But we're not just another digital bank or on-demand pay provider. We meet Americans at their place of work by embedding our products within the scheduling, workforce management, and payroll apps they already use every day.\nLearn more about us at getclair.com/about\nAbout the Role\nWe’re looking for a Product Manager to help bring one of Clair's next products to life.\nThe product you'll initially work on exists today in successful private beta and is actively being expanded. That means you'll have a unique opportunity to join early in the product journey and help shape how we take an idea from concept to a real-world product and experience.\nThis isn't a role where you'll inherit a perfectly defined roadmap or be handed a clear playbook for success. We have a direction, a problem we're working to solve, and a vision, but there is still plenty to figure out. You'll help turn ambiguity into action, make smart decisions with imperfect information, and work alongside a small, highly collaborative team to build, test, learn, and iterate quickly.\nAt Clair, building products is uniquely complex. We're an embedded fintech company, which means great product decisions require balancing the needs of our users with partner priorities and internal business demands, all while operating within a regulated environment. You'll work closely with engineering, design, data, finance, regulatory, operations, go-to-market, and partner teams to navigate those competing inputs and find the best path forward.\nWe're looking for a builder who is comfortable with gray areas, thinks outside the box, and isn't afraid to try something that might not work. You know how to move quickly without being reckless and understand that failing fast is only valuable if you're learning fast, too.\nYou won't be joining a team with every answer already mapped out. You'll help us find them.\nIf you need someone to tell you exactly how to win, this probably isn't the role for you.\nWhat You'll Do\nIdentify, evaluate, and help define opportunities for new Clair products and experiences, often before the problem or solution is fully understood.\n\nDefine and execute product strategy and roadmaps in ambiguous, fast-moving environments.\n\nPartner closely with engineering and design to move quickly from concept to experiment to product, balancing speed with thoughtful execution.\n\nBuild, test, learn, and iterate quickly-knowing when to invest further and when to fail fast and move on.\n\nBalance user experience and needs with partner priorities, business requirements, and the realities of operating an embedded fintech product.\n\nSpend time with partner management and go-to-market teams to identify new opportunities, uncover unmet needs, and develop new product concepts when necessary.\n\nDevelop a deep understanding of Clair users through feedback, behavioral data, research, and direct conversations-and push for new ways to learn when existing data isn't enough.\n\nWork closely with data and analytics teams to develop hypotheses, evaluate product performance, and make informed decisions without becoming paralyzed by incomplete data.\n\nCollaborate with design and support teams to create intuitive, elegant experiences that help users understand and confidently engage with financial products.\n\nPartner with regulatory, finance, operations, and other internal stakeholders to navigate complex requirements without losing sight of the user experience.\n\nBring the voice of the customer into product strategy, roadmap discussions, and day-to-day product decisions.\n\nAnalyze market trends, emerging customer needs, and the broader fintech landscape to identify opportunities for innovation and new business lines.\n\nAdvocate for your product and point of view, including with senior leadership, while remaining open to feedback and willing to change your mind when new information emerges.\n\nTake ownership from problem identification through launch and iteration-you won't just recommend what should happen; you'll help make it happen.\n\nWhat We're Looking For\n3+ years of product management experience, ideally with experience building new products or features from the ground up.\n\nExperience working in consumer fintech, neobanking, financial services, or another complex and regulated industry is preferred.\n\nComfortable operating in ambiguity; you can create clarity and momentum without needing every decision, process, or path defined for you.\n\nStrong product instincts paired with a willingness to test those instincts quickly and learn when you're wrong. You should be able to express and extol a strong sense of how you want a product to be before it exists.\n\nExperience balancing multiple stakeholder needs while maintaining a clear point of view about what is best for the user and product.\n\nDeep empathy for how Americans use financial products and an interest in how financial products can meaningfully impact people's lives and financial wellbeing.\n\nExperience partnering closely with design teams and a strong ability to articulate product preferences, user needs, and tradeoffs.\n\nComfort working with engineers, data teams, and technical systems-even if you're not the most technical person in the room.\n\nUnderstanding of or curiosity about lending systems, underwriting, payments, risk management, or other financial infrastructure is highly preferred.\n\nStrong data fluency and experience using quantitative and qualitative insights to inform product decisions.\n\nExcellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to bring people along when the answer or path forward isn't immediately obvious.\n\nComfort advocating for a product strategy or roadmap, including upward with senior leadership.\n\nA strong sense of ownership and accountability-you see problems through rather than waiting for someone else to solve them.\n\nA startup mindset: resourceful, adaptable, practical, and energized by building something that doesn't already exist.\n\nYou'll Thrive in This Role If You...\nGet energized when someone says, \"We don't know exactly how we're going to do this yet.\"\n\nCan make progress without waiting for perfect information.\n\nHave strong opinions, loosely held.\n\nKnow that moving fast doesn't mean rushing.\n\nCan balance what users want, what partners need, and what the business requires.\n\nAre comfortable being wrong, as long as you learn quickly. (We call this the ‘Roomba’ mentality - hit a wall and find a new way forward)\n\nEnjoy creating structure where there currently isn't any.\n\nThink the best part of product management is figuring out what to build next.\n\nThis is a role for a builder. The roadmap won't always be clear, the answer won't always be obvious, and the path to success won't be pre-defined. But if you're excited by the opportunity to help shape what's next for Clair, you'll have a meaningful opportunity to do just that.\nAdditional Details\nLocation: This is a hybrid position based in New York City; you will be expected to come into the office at least three days a week (Tuesdays, Wednesdays, & Thursdays) with additional days on occasion for client meetings.\nCompensation: The annual base salary for this role is $180,000.
