Product Manager
About Pave Bank
Pave Bank is building modern financial infrastructure across payments, banking, trading, and digital asset services. We operate at the intersection of regulated finance, technology, and global capital movement, with a focus on creating products that are operationally robust, commercially scalable, and technically sophisticated.
We are looking for a Product Manager who is comfortable operating in ambiguity, translating complex business problems into executable product and engineering outcomes, and helping shape new business verticals from the ground up.
This is not a traditional “roadmap maintenance” product role. The ideal candidate is commercially curious, technically literate, and excited to work across multiple domains within financial services.
Over time, we expect this role to evolve into ownership of a business unit or strategic product vertical.
What You’ll Do
Drive Cross-Functional Product Execution
Work closely with leadership, operations, compliance, partnerships, and engineering teams to shape and launch new capabilities.
Translate business needs, operational workflows, and strategic goals into clear product requirements and execution plans.
Partner with engineers on product design, technical tradeoffs, implementation sequencing, and delivery.
Help define APIs, workflows, operational tooling, and user experiences across financial products.
Operate Across Multiple Financial Domains
You may work across:
Cross-border payments
Banking infrastructure
Trading and liquidity products
Investment-related initiatives
Treasury and settlement workflows
Client-facing financial tooling
The role requires comfort switching contexts quickly and developing working fluency in multiple parts of the financial stack.
Strategic and Commercial Thinking
Identify opportunities for new product lines, operational efficiencies, or market expansion.
Contribute to business cases, market sizing, pricing considerations, and go-to-market thinking.
Work with stakeholders to evaluate commercial viability and operational feasibility of new initiatives.
Think beyond feature delivery and understand how products contribute to revenue, risk, and long-term company positioning.
Communication & Alignment
Act as the bridge between business and technical teams.
Bring clarity to ambiguous problems and align stakeholders around priorities and execution.
Communicate effectively with both highly technical engineers and commercially-focused stakeholders.
What We’re Looking For
Strong Product & Business Judgment
Ability to break down ambiguous business problems into structured execution plans.
Strong intuition for prioritization, tradeoffs, and operational practicality.
Commercial mindset with interest in how financial products create value.
Technical Fluency
You do not need to be an engineer, but you should be comfortable:
Working closely with backend and infrastructure teams
Understanding APIs, workflows, and system dependencies
Discussing implementation tradeoffs with engineers
Writing clear and structured product requirements
Adaptability
Comfortable operating in fast-moving environments with evolving priorities.
Able to move between strategic discussions and execution details.
Curious and proactive in unfamiliar domains.
Communication Skills
Clear written and verbal communication.
Ability to synthesize complex topics into actionable decisions.
Comfortable engaging with senior stakeholders and cross-functional teams.
Nice to Have
Experience in fintech, banking, payments, trading, or financial services
Exposure to regulated environments
Experience working with engineering teams on backend-heavy products
Background in consulting, startups, strategy, operations, or technical product management
Experience building 0→1 products or new business initiatives
Why This Role Is Different
This role is designed for someone who wants to grow beyond traditional product management.
You will be exposed to:
Strategic business decisions
Financial infrastructure and global payments
Technical systems and operational workflows
New market and product expansion
Leadership opportunities across emerging business lines
We are looking for someone who wants to help build the business.
What We Offer:
The opportunity to shape the future of programmable banking and define new standards for global business finance.
A mission-driven, diverse, and international team with deep domain expertise and a passion for innovation.
Competitive compensation and benefits package.
Equity in the company-so you're aligned with our growth and success.
