About the Role: Gen is hiring a Director of Product Management, Special Projects to own a portfolio of high-stakes, net-new product initiatives — reporting directly to the Global Head of Financial Wellness Technology. This is a senior product leadership role built for someone who thrives at the frontier of what's possible. Your primary work is leading complex 0→1 initiatives end-to-end: owning the roadmap, driving execution, partnering with Engineering and Design, and shipping. You are not an advisor or a strategist sitting outside the work — you are a product manager who carries full accountability for outcomes. The initiatives you'll own are technically deep, cross-functional, and high-consequence, requiring you to move comfortably from partner negotiation to product spec to launch readiness. Beyond your own portfolio, you'll also be expected to raise the bar on how the product organization works. That means finding better ways to run product — sharper meetings, faster signal on what's shipping and how it's performing, smarter use of AI throughout the product development lifecycle — doing it yourself first, and then helping spread those practices across the team. You will partner closely with Engineering, Design, Analytics, Finance, and external partners — and you will be a key thought partner on where product is going and how we get there. MoneyLion, now part of Gen, is a leading financial marketplace and consumer finance platform. We power millions of consumer financial decisions across mobile, web, and enterprise surfaces. The product organization is at the center of our next phase of growth — building new financial infrastructure, exploring new geographies, and reimagining what a consumer fintech platform can do. Key Responsibilities: - Own a portfolio of net-new product initiatives end-to-end — from problem definition and roadmap through execution, launch, and iteration. You carry the product, not just the strategy. - Drive 0→1 product development on complex, cross-functional initiatives: write the specs, align the teams, make the tradeoffs, and ship. - Operate fluently in fintech's technical complexity: payments infrastructure, financial rails, compliance considerations, and the operational nuance of building in regulated environments. - Interface directly with external partners — financial institutions, fintech infrastructure providers, distribution partners — from first conversation through product integration and launch. - Define product vision for your initiatives, grounding ambitious thinking in technical feasibility, user needs, and business impact. - Define success metrics across your portfolio, instrument them, and drive accountability through data and experimentation. What we're looking for: - A strong product management track record — you have shipped complex products in technically demanding environments, ideally in financial products, payments, or adjacent infrastructure-heavy domains. - Someone who is energized by owning a problem fully: the roadmap, the execution, the partner relationships, and the results. - Deep comfort with technical complexity — you don't need to write the code, but you need to understand the architecture, ask the right questions, and earn the respect of strong engineers. - Experience working with external partners and translating commercial relationships into concrete product requirements and execution plans. - Strong AI product sensibility — you understand how to build AI-powered systems, not just use them, and you're actively thinking about where AI reshapes fintech's value stack. - Exceptional written and verbal communication; you can make a complicated idea land simply, and a simple idea feel consequential. - Low ego, high ownership. This role requires someone who gets things done without needing the credit — and who can lead without direct authority as often as with it. About you: Education: Bachelor’s degree in Business, Engineering, Economics, Computer Science, or a related field; MBA or advanced technical degree a plus. Experience: 12+ years of product management experience, including 4+ years leading senior-level initiatives or managing PMs at high-growth fintech, marketplace, or large-scale consumer technology companies. Skills: - Proven track record owning revenue-critical product areas with meaningful P&L influence (tens of millions in annual revenue or more). - Deep experience in marketplace dynamics, personalization, acquisition funnels, and conversion optimization. - Strong technical fluency (APIs, backend systems, event pipelin
