About this role
We’re hiring a Senior Product Manager to own the Intelligence product surface at Highbeam across banking, bill pay, cards, and treasury. You’ll define how AI shows up in financial workflows, ship core agentic workflows (automated AP, treasury optimization, anomaly detection), and drive weekly product velocity from spec to launch. The bar is a meaningful product shipped fast, with adoption and monetization to match.
This role is based in our NoHo, NYC office.
What you’ll do
Own the Intelligence product surface across banking, bill pay, cards, and treasury

Drive adoption and monetization, not just launches: ensure workflows are actually used
Improve speed of iteration across product (faster cycles, tighter feedback loops)
Contribute to product narrative + positioning
Net impact
Highbeam becomes known for AI-native financial workflows, not just banking
Faster shipping of meaningful product (not incremental features)
Measurable lift in product adoption (bill pay, cards, treasury)
Qualifications
4-6 years PM experience; early-stage operator (PM #1–5 at Series A–C)

Background in fintech or vertical SaaS (Ramp, Brex, Mercury, etc.)
Bonus: engineering background
