Senior Director, Product Management — Fair Lending

Role Overview

RiskExec’s customers rely on our platform to assess high-stakes regulatory risk, produce defensible analyses, and turn complex data into decisions they can trust and act on. This role exists because Fair Lending and adjacent disciplines—such as Fair Servicing and Redlining—are becoming more strategic, visible, and demanding for financial institutions. Customers need faster insights, clearer workflows, stronger defensibility, and greater automation. RiskExec must meet that demand with product leadership that is commercially sharp, deeply grounded in the domain, and capable of converting customer and regulatory complexity into shipped software.

About the role

The Senior Director, Product Management will own the product direction and business outcomes for RiskExec’s Fair Lending, Fair Servicing, and Redlining modules. You will set priorities, define tradeoffs, drive roadmap execution, and ensure the platform delivers measurable improvements in adoption, retention, expansion, customer trust, and operating efficiency.

Responsibilities

• Define the direction, priorities, sequencing, tradeoffs, and de-scoping decisions for Fair Lending, Fair Servicing, Redlining, and related analyses within the compliance analytics suite.
• Drive measurable improvements in product usage, workflow completion, time to insight, renewal health, and customer value realization.
• Provide the product strategy, evidence, and inputs to Sales, Customer Success, and Marketing to support packaging, positioning, competitive differentiation, account expansion, webinars, thought leadership, and customer-facing proof points.
• Build a structured intake process across Sales, Customer Success, Support, Implementation, and direct customer conversations. Synthesize those signals into product decisions and close the loop with internal teams and customers.
• Maintain a clear view of market alternatives, emerging threats, feature-parity decisions, and opportunities to strengthen RiskExec’s differentiation.
• Ensure product behavior is compliance-grade, analytical outputs are defensible, and releases are reliable, understandable, and ready for customers operating in regulated environments.
• Create repeatable onboarding, training, workflow, and self-service assets that reduce dependence on services and improve consistency across the customer base.

Requirements

• 10–15+ years of product leadership, domain leadership, or adjacent operating experience, with clear ownership of shipped outcomes.
• Deep expertise in financial services compliance, with demonstrated command of Fair Lending, Fair Servicing, Redlining, or an adjacent regulatory analytics discipline with credible transferability.
• Proven ability to translate complex domain knowledge, customer workflows, and regulatory requirements into enterprise SaaS capabilities.
• Strong analytical judgment, including the ability to build prioritization cases using data, customer evidence, commercial logic, and risk-based tradeoffs.
• Experience partnering with Engineering to deliver complex software without blurring accountability between product direction and technical execution.
• Executive-grade communication skills: concise, direct, structured, and credible when defending tradeoffs with senior leaders and customers.
• Demonstrated ability to improve adoption, retention, expansion, or operating efficiency through product decisions.

Qualifications

• Experience in a private equity-backed or similarly high-accountability operating environment.
• Experience moving products from services-intensive implementations toward repeatable, scalable, and self-service adoption.
• Experience with AI-assisted analytics, automation, decision support, or workflow intelligence in regulated environments.
• Experience producing customer-facing thought leadership, webinars, or market education connected to product strategy and shipped capabilities.
• Familiarity with compliance analytics, statistical testing, model governance, audit workflows, or regulatory examination processes.

Traits That Win at RiskExec

• A ruthless prioritizer: Protects focus, says no early, and understands that sequencing is strategy.
• A systems thinker: Sees the connections among onboarding, data quality, analytical assumptions, reporting outputs, customer trust, and regulatory risk.
• A commercially fluent thinker: Understands what drives renewals, expansion, differentiation, and willingness to pay.
• An AI-native product thinker: Identifies ways to use automation, intelligence, and workflow design to reduce manual effort, accelerate insights, and improve defensibility.
• A direct collaborator: Drives alignment quickly, escalates cleanly, and does not tolerate slow drift or unresolved ambiguity.
