Mercury is a software-driven fintech that provides business and personal banking products built for startups and small to mid-size companies. Its platform offers business checking and savings, Treasury products, business credit cards and spend management, payments and invoicing, accounting integrations and AI-powered automations, plus APIs and developer tools. Mercury partners with FDIC-insured banks to offer deposit protection, emphasizes virtual cards, granular spend controls, and workflow automations for teams, agencies, ecommerce brands, VC funds, and crypto businesses. The product is positioned as an all-in-one banking and finance platform delivered through a modern app and API.

📋 Description

• Own the program for Mercury's bank charter and governance work: the sequencing, dependencies, risks, and decisions across engineering, product, design, and data teams • Define the TPM operating system for the banking org: the rituals, tooling, reporting, and standards that make complex cross-functional work legible and fast • Build automation and agentic flows to run programs with efficiency and high quality • Build and run exec-level reporting, synthesizing a high volume of information into self-serve dashboards and crisp narratives about what matters most • Pressure-test timelines, sequencing, and estimates with engineering and product leaders, knowing when to challenge assumptions • Build, manage, and develop a team of TPMs while directly running select program areas • Drive decisions through ambiguity: clarify ownership, force tradeoffs into the open, and use productive conflict to get to the right answer • Operate with the auditability and documentation rigor that regulated, governance-heavy work demands

🎯 Requirements

• 10+ years of program management, engineering, or product leadership experience, including 3+ years managing TPMs or PMs • A technical background, ideally engineering, technical program management or senior product, with the fluency to work through architecture-level tradeoffs, timelines, and estimates with eng leaders • Experience in regulated industries; fintech or banking strongly preferred • A track record of building program management functions or operating systems, not just running individual programs • Exceptional communication and the ability to influence cross-functionally, up to execs, across to peers, and down to teams you don't manage • A solutions-first orientation: comfortable being dropped into ambiguity and known for leaving clarity behind.

🏖️ Benefits

• base salary • equity (stock options/RSUs)
