About the role:

We're looking for a Product Manager to lead the charge in building the features and systems to secure and defend our platform from fraud, ensure regulatory compliance, and create exceptional user experiences for people dealing with sensitive situations like disputes, account takeovers, or payment failures.

In this high-impact role, you will own the end-to-end product strategy and user experience for features that span fraud prevention, security, risk management, compliance, disputes, and customer recovery. You’ll partner with teams across engineering, design, risk strategy, fraud operations, compliance, legal, data, customer support, and disputes to develop thoughtful, resilient, and human-centered solutions that protect both users and the business.

You’ll play a critical role in balancing security with usability—ensuring that protective measures are seamless and that recovery from issues like fraud or mistaken transactions is clear, fast, and fair.

Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

• Own the cohesive roadmap for Support & Safety features including fraud prevention, user authentication, regulatory requirements, disputes handling, and recovery journeys within Branch products

• Work closely with teams to understand evolving requirements and translate them into scalable, productized solutions
• Enable audits and reporting through robust data logging and traceable decision frameworks
• Partner with Engineering to deliver high-quality features and infrastructure improvements, and with Design to ensure that all security and risk flows are intuitive and support trust

Qualifications (required):

• 3+ years of product management experience, ideally in fintech, payments, or risk/security domains
• Proven track record of building systems or features, or substantial experience building processes related to security, fraud prevention, transaction risk, or compliance
• Deep understanding of financial regulations and user protection standards (e.g., Reg E, AML/KYC)
• Experience designing or improving user flows for sensitive or high-friction use cases (e.g., account lockouts, fraud recovery)
• Analytical and data-savvy; capable of working with data science teams and translating insights into action
• Strong communication skills and stakeholder management across technical, operational, and legal teams
• Passion for trust, user safety, and building accessible, fair, and user-friendly products

Qualifications (preferred):

• Experience with fraud detection tools (SEON, Marqeta, Mastercard), disputes management (Quavo), and identification platforms (Persona)
• Background in digital identity or security UX
• Technical fluency with APIs, data pipelines, or security architectures
