Product Manager

About the role

This role is based in New York City and in-office a minimum of 4 days per week.

Responsibilities

• Drive new investing products end-to-end — from idea to design, development, QA, and launch.
• Align product goals across teams and set the priorities that keep delivery moving.
• Own the product relationship with engineering — break down work, unblock issues, and drive efficiency.
• Build and test go-to-market hypotheses, including user needs, target KPIs, positioning, and differentiators.
• Track financial market trends, user sentiment, and competitor moves, and use them to shape what we build next.
• Shape Public's broader roadmap, balancing speed, quality, and long-term customer impact.

Requirements

• You've worked at a brokerage or in investing markets — or you're deeply active in the markets yourself (trading regularly, following market structure closely, or having built investment products before).
• You've shipped AI-first products, where AI is part of the core experience rather than a feature added on top.
• You have sharp UX/UI instincts and can run a front-end-heavy project from kickoff to launch on your own.
• You have 4-8 years in product, consulting, or a related field at a startup, building high-quality consumer or financial products (at least 2 of those years directly in product).
• You're a self-starter who can run the full product lifecycle — ideation, execution, analysis, iteration.
• You communicate clearly, in writing and in person, with engineering, compliance, risk, operations, and go-to-market.

Qualifications

• You are proficient in financial markets and have a deep understanding of investment products.
• You have excellent problem-solving and analytical skills.
• You are able to manage multiple projects simultaneously and prioritize tasks effectively.
• You have strong communication and collaboration skills, especially with cross-functional teams.

Skills
